"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.

"Waters Concrete poured an additional driveway on the side of our home. They did an excellent job - very clean and uniform. We were very happy with the work and although it was somewhat expensive, there was a lot of work to do on the site prep side. Very satisfied"

"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."

"We had a fantastic experience with Concrete Solutions of Atlanta. Our project was unique because we wanted our driveway to double as a pickleball court, so we had very specific requirements for layout, joints, smoothness, and finish quality. Their entire team listened carefully and implemented everything exactly as requested. They paid incredible attention to detail and never rushed the process — even delaying the pour when heavy rain was forecast to ensure the job was done right. Communication was excellent, craftsmanship was outstanding, and it was obvious they truly cared about quality. They were not the cheapest quote we received, but they were absolutely worth it. I highly recommend Concrete Solutions of Atlanta for anyone wanting high-quality concrete work, especially custom projects."

"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

An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.

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.

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.

Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn’t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment. 

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.
