"I got both a very good price and excellent workmanship from Issac the owner of Whites Custom Paving. Issac and his crew did an outstanding job. They were prompt, respectful of our property and finished the job as committed, which was one day. Very impressive given we have a large property. They widened the driveway as requested and it looks great! Issac stopped by the house the following day to go over the work and ensure we were satisfied which we were. He also provides a workmanship warranty. I plan to hire him to Sealcoat the driveway when it’s ready to be sealed. He has done other neighbors homes as well who I believe were all very satisfied. His cost was less then other companies I received quotes from so a great experience."

"New Crete did a beautiful job resurfacing our driveway. The builder (Capstone) did a terrible job on the concrete when we had our home built. New Crete ground it down, and worked their magic and it now looks like a new driveway. Great company to work with too. Stayed in touch during the winter months when it was too cold to do the work.

"The company came out originally and did a concrete pad for our company to wash down equipment and trucks. They did an amazing job! The pad has held up even with several commercial vehicles driving on it daily! Then they came out and excavated our entire parking lot and got our water to drain correctly to the drains. Have had several other companies come out to do the same thing and lasts about a month and they could never get the water to drain correctly!! Great honest company and would use again! The guy who excavated I believe was the owners son. His name was Mike and he was very friendly, honest and knowledgeable. A+++++"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.

While the specific timeline for building a driveway can vary based on driveway length and local weather conditions, the average concrete driveway can require several days to lay down all of the different parts of the driveway. The curing process may require you to avoid using your driveway for a week following construction. Heavier vehicles should be kept off of a new concrete driveway for several weeks. Building a gravel driveway may take just one to two days in total.

A driveway's lifespan varies by material. Asphalt driveways typically last 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last longer, between 20 and 50 years. The longevity of any driveway is affected by factors like extreme temperatures, heavy traffic, and the quality of maintenance. Regular upkeep, such as filling cracks, resealing the surface, and ensuring proper drainage, can help extend its life. For gravel driveways, regrading to fill in uneven areas every year or two is recommended.

Yes, you can retrofit an existing driveway, but this usually involves cutting grooves into the driveway, installing the heating elements, then sealing them. While this is much less expensive than typical heated driveway systems, the final appearance could be diminished. Speak with a driveway paving company to confirm which design method is best for you.
