"I saw on my camera that they showed up to do my driveway. It looked like they were having some issues with machine. Krayden came on the 12th to get his check, but we expressed our concerns to him about some rocks showing on the asphalt. He said if there were concerns that he would come out and fix it. In April we saw that we had a bunch of weeds pop up through the asphalt quite significantly. We called him to let him know and it took some time to send someone out to pour weed killer in holes and spray black on top of that. Well we started having more weeds pop up through the asphalt and I called and he did not respond. I texted him to let him know that there were more weed spots and that he would come out and take a look and never did. I can't get him to respond. I also have rocks that are randomly popping out of the asphalt and the side of the asphalt is breaking away in sections. Like it is just melting away. I know he did paperwork and I don't have any copies of an official document like a contract. It is possible that he should have that on his end as to where they should keep paperwork on their jobs."

The decision to repair or replace your driveway depends on the extent of the damage. If your driveway has a few small cracks, a simple repair will do the trick. If you see larger cracks and potholes, it may be time to consider resurfacing or replacement. Resurfacing is a great option if more than 25% of the surface is damaged, but if the damage is extensive—deep cracks or significant sinking—it’s best to replace the driveway entirely. A new driveway, with proper care, can last decades while patching or resurfacing might only hold up for a few years before needing more attention.
Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.
Driveways should be sloped with a minimum 2% slope—anything lower will cause precipitation and runoff to collect. A 2% slope is the equivalent of a 2-foot rise over 100 feet. One quick way to check the integrity of your driveway’s slope: no more than four inches of water should collect on the surface longer than 15 minutes after rain.
Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.
The average cost of 1,500 square feet of asphalt ranges from about $10,500 to $22,500, depending on location, thickness, base material, and how accessible the job site is to crews and equipment. Keep in mind that your asphalt material cost may vary depending on its type, ranging from porous asphalt to heated blacktop. Standard asphalt costs $7 to $13 per square foot.
