"Alex and his team were absolutely fantastic! This was the second time I used them in the past year and they did not disappoint. I hired them to remove stone veneer around my foundation that was falling off due to poor workmanship from a prior contractor and then install new stone, as well as install bluestone on my front stoop. They were extremely professional and meticulous in completing the work. Their daily positive attitudes, attention to detail and cleanliness made them a pleasure to have around our home. They were always punctual, respectful and friendly, which goes a long way in enhancing the experience. Alex was adamant about providing the best service possible, and was never once rude or off-putting when I had questions. I can not say enough good things about him or his team. We will absolutely be using him to build a staircase/walkway from our the side of our home to our back patio. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience!"

"I hired US Home Improvements LLC to replace two sets of stairs and walkways. I chose Mondy based on his large number of positive reviews and the interactions I had with him from the first phone call onward. Mondy does what he says heâ s going to do, when he says heâ s going to do it, and for how much he says heâ s going to do it for. On top of that the work is excellent. What more could you ask for? I really appreciated that once he started the project he was there every day until it was done. He did the project in five days. If I need more masonry work in the future US Home Improvements LLC doing it."

"Rafael and his guys are true professionals and did an amazing job! Arrived bright and early each day and ready to work! Explained what he was going to do each day and gave his professional opinion on the job which I'm happy i agreed with. He and his guys are very pleasant and cleaned up very well at the end of each day. The end product is top notch! All of my neighbors have since booked him to do their yards. Thank you, Rafael, RR Paving and Masonry. Can't wait to hang out in my new beautiful patio!"

"This is the second time we have used Silo paving. Each time we received excellent customer service from Claudia and, most important, excellent work from Chris and his crews. Our driveway was prepared well, the cracks were filled and the coatings have given our driveway extra life. We fully recommend this company!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

Asphalt dries and cures best between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows moisture to evaporate quickly without causing the asphalt to cool too fast, which can negatively affect the drying process. However, keep in mind that other weather conditions can also affect curing and drying times, such as precipitation and humidity.

In most cases, you don’t need a permit to repave your driveway, although some exceptions exist. If you’re widening your driveway and plan on widening the apron as well, you’ll usually need a permit from the Department of Transportation in your area. This permit costs between $50 and $300 in most cases. Most municipalities will also require a certified and insured contractor do the work relating to the apron and curb cut. You can contact your building department or ask your paving company if you need a permit. Your driveway professional will usually pull the permit for you.

While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues.
