Customers say: Super punctual

"JD and his team just did the second job for us - new front yard sod & some new backyard plantings. The work is beautiful, just what we wanted, and was done efficiently and with such a great, positive crew. JD is meticulous - you get a beautiful yard and simple instructions to keep it that way! He has a great feel for what the customer wants and understands what it's going to look like all year round and over the long term. His original design is still beautiful almost 10 years later. Highly recommend, thanks JD!"

"Unique Landscaping does superior work. I needed to eliminate large, high maintenance overgrown landscaping beds around my home and wanted a cleaner, lower maintenance landscape around my house. Fabian designed the look, made excellent suggestions, and led a hard-working, friendly team of workers to completely overhaul everything. It now looks clean, modern and reflects my taste. I could not be happier. The crew worked tirelessly and efficiently, were concerned that every detail be excellent and pleasing and each worker really knew their stuff. The cost was reasonable and well explained and well worth it. Fabian's direction was a true partnership with me to be sure I was happy throughout the process. I cannot say enough good things about them and the entire experience. Do not hesitate to hire this company for anything you might need."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

By grading and compacting the base soil, ensuring proper drainage and stability.

Asphalt is made of aggregate materials (sand, rocks, and gravel) and bitumen, a viscous, petroleum-based, waterproof substance. These materials are mixed together at extremely high temperatures to form asphalt.

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.

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.

New asphalt typically needs 24 to 72 hours to dry before it can handle light foot traffic and careful driving. Although it may appear solid after a few days, the full curing process, where the asphalt reaches its peak strength, takes much longer—generally from 30 days to a year.

During this extended curing time, the surface remains relatively soft and can be damaged by heavy vehicles, sharp objects, or high temperatures. To protect your investment, it's best to avoid parking heavy machinery on the asphalt until it has fully cured.

The exact time required for drying and curing depends on several factors, including the weather, the specific asphalt mix, and its thickness. For the most accurate advice tailored to your situation, consult with your asphalt contractor.
