"I want to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding work and true professionalism shown by A1 Asphalt Paving & Seal Coating. Mr. Ezekiel George and his expert team truly went above and beyond at my property — they made the impossible possible. I didn’t have the full budget to completely pave my jagged, worn-out driveway, but the compassionate team at A1 Asphalt was incredibly understanding and sympathetic to my situation. Ezekiel and his dad (Jerry) personally worked with me to create a custom plan that delivered exactly what I needed — all while staying well within my means. They even offered a flexible payment plan to ease the financial pressure. From start to finish, the crew was fast, diligent, and highly skilled. They kept me informed every step of the way and only asked for payment once the job was complete and I was fully satisfied. A week later, after some heavy rain, I noticed a small blemish. I called Ezekiel and received an immediate, friendly response. He promptl"

"I was introduced to this Company by my neighbor who had a his driveways and walkways redone by Classic Concrete. We all live on more than one acre and are not in a subdivision so our drives are very long and winding. When I contacted them for an estimate, Greg Meyers responded quickly and gave me a written estimate within a few days. I have had very bad experiences lately with some contractors so I did everything I could to ensure I made the correct choice for my work. I have no background in this type of project so I was very reluctant to move forward without all the information I could find. I checked the references he provided to me and they gave him outstanding ratings. I obtained another quote and this company was significantly lower priced.
I obtained the quote several months ahead of time with a plan to complete the work in January. In December, I contacted Greg and modified my request sightly and he immediately responded with a new written quote. In mid January, Greg made a follow up call to see if I was ready to start and we moved forward.
The entire project could not have gone smoother. They started on time, kept in touch with me all during the process, and finished on time. The cleanup and finishing touches were perfect. I cannot say enough about how great this job was handled.

"Jeff did a great job installing a rock creek bed in our backyard to fix an erosion problem and bringing in yards of dirt and mulch by individual wheel barrow loads to level a play area. Fair price, efficient, courteous and quality work. He's also "hands on" doing the work with his crew...which was great instead of some who show up in the morning, give instructions and then leave. Will be hiring him again for our next project"

"Water’s concrete did an awesome job of replacing our driveway! Blaine and his entire crew were extremely thorough with a keen eye on detail. The timing of this project was exceptional as the weather conditions were so unpredictable… they waited just long enough for everything to dry up and temperatures to rise to an acceptable level prior to even beginning the job. We couldn’t recommend a company more than Water’ concrete for your concrete projects. Thank you so very much for all your hard work and very competitive pricing! K&D"

"Best price among multiple vendors. They were prompt and efficient. Got driveway paved and it looks great! Removed roots and smoothed everything out while also expanding parking area. Huge improvement over the original 40 year old driveway that the original owners left to disrepair."

"I recently replaced my concrete driveway; I got bids from multiple vendors, carefully checked reviews and picked North Georgia Concrete. They did not disappoint. They did an excellent job. The owner was patient through the last few months while we were having constant rain. He did not rush the job just to finish and get paid. His team showed up on time. He offers a good warranty. His prices were reasonable. A sprinkler system PVC water line that I was unaware of turned up under the old concrete. They hit it with a scooper which created a leak at one point near the edge. That is not unreasonable. I'm sure this happens all the time. What's different about this vendor is how they immediately took responsibility and efficiently fixed the problem. Their team replaced the sprinkler system PVC line across the entire driveway in an abundance of caution as a cement truck had to run across it to pour concrete at the top of the driveway and very likely damaged the PVC line further. They also, on their on initiative, placed a 3" PVC pipe under the driveway in case a service line had to be laid under the driveway in the future. They sculpted the edges to facilitate rain water to flow down the driveway, so as not to saturate the ground to the side. It is quite impressive. Their effort far exceeded my expectations. I couldn't be more delighted. I've already had 2 neighbors tell me they admired the work. The mailman also admired it and asked who did the work."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Instead of a set number of types, asphalt comes in variations designed for different needs. Some are categorized by temperature—hot mix, warm mix, and cold mix. Others are sorted by composition, like dense-graded, gap-graded (such as Stone Matrix Asphalt), porous, and mastic asphalt. There are also modified versions with added compounds like polymers, rubber, or emulsions. Instead of focusing on a number, it may be more useful to understand how contractors customize asphalt for durability, climate, and traffic conditions.

The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.

Asphalt, which is stone mixed with tar, is the most common material for outdoor basketball courts because it’s so sturdy and versatile. However, you don't have to use it: another option is polymeric rubber, which has shock pads that can prevent injury. This option is a little more expensive, ranging between $16 and $25 per square foot.

Materials used for indoor basketball courts, such as hardwoods, aren’t really an option outdoors.

Cobblestone is just one of many driveway materials. Other, more economical, albeit less elaborate options include concrete, asphalt, and gravel. 

If you want a material that most closely resembles cobblestone, your best option is bricks or pavers. Both cost anywhere from $10 to $50 per square foot and can be laid in all kinds of patterns. Depending on the type of paver you choose, you can also get a good bang for your buck by investing in durable natural stone.

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.
