"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. Jane Edginton, 308 Collins St. Milton"
"Jimmy and his crew were on time, worked well together and completed our driveway in a professional and orderly fashion. I would strongly recommend Zweemer paving

"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+++++"
Sometimes, when people talk about asphalt driveways, they’re actually referring to asphalt concrete, which is a completely different compound. Asphalt concrete is asphaltic cement combined with sand or grit. It is significantly more lasting and durable than regular asphalt but also much more expensive. If you’re considering using asphalt concrete, ask an asphalt company for their expert opinions.
Driveway aprons typically range between four and seven inches thick, though your town's building codes will likely have specific requirements. Additionally, you may need to add a layer of permeable aggregate in the excavation below your paved apron to ensure proper stormwater drainage.
When hiring an asphalt paving contractor to install your driveway, ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective driveway contractor:
How many years of experience do you have?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Do you have worker’s compensation?
Do you use subcontractors on your projects?
Do you clean up after the job is done?
Who is responsible for any damage to lawn or landscaping?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Do you give free estimates?
What is the timeline for completion?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three references?
Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
Since it has a smoother surface using a mixture of finer rock and sand, 41A tends to be the best asphalt grade for a driveway, especially for residential driveways. Other options are available, but more homeowners choose 41A for a smoother asphalt driveway. Talk with your asphalt driveway professional for recommendations of the best grade for your specific driveway.
DIY is not recommended due to equipment and expertise requirements. Professional services ensure durability and proper grading.
