"The crews from Irish Castle Paving who worked on my driveway during the preparation for paving, and then again during the actual paving, were highly professional and very courteous. They did a fabulous job, making sure everything was level and being very careful around the recently installed pavers adjacent to my driveway. They were meticulous about cleaning up when they finished. I could not be more pleased with the experience and with my new driveway."

"It went very well. It went quicker than I anticipated. I have two car drives which were probably about 60 feet long and they took out my old driveway. We were able to basically do it very quickly. I was pleasantly surprised that they could do it so well. The owner, I believe he is the owner, his name is Troy, he kept me updated on everything that was going on and what I was going to do. He was pitching it so that the water would run off the driveway and into the drain. He did keep me informed and I really appreciate it. He was very honest person. I did get quotes from other blacktop people and he was the most reasonable and I definitely would recommend him again."

"My only complaint about 5 Star is the fact that they don't do anything else house rehab related other than their specialty.They are the only contractors that I have hired in 9+ years that said what they were going to do before the project started , delivered on time in a very professional manner with a minimum of disruption and dealing with a host of other things that necessitated repairing when the old driveway was removed that I had no idea was needed nor was prepared to fix. They worked with me along the way patiently while we had electrical work, brick masonary work, and landscaping , AC work . Some of whom were professionals found and recommended by 5 Star . As to whether I would hire them again I am hiring them again to do sod / stamped concrete project."

"Project: replaced existing driveway and stairs with new cement; installed a new concrete patio I would highly recommend Garcia Concrete Solutions for any cement project. Caesar provided a reasonable estimate and had clear communication throughout the process. They identified a concern with the pitch of the driveway and provided a solution. The workers were always on time and completed the project within the communicated timeframe. We are happy with the work and glad that we chose their company."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway. 

To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.

Many asphalt companies have experience with tar and chip paving, but not all. The process is unique enough—and not incredibly common enough—that you may have to look around for a tar and chip specialist. However, speaking with a driveway company is a great place to start, especially if they have experience with multiple materials.

To ensure you hire a reliable and experienced paving company, you should start by finding companies in your area that have at least five to ten years of experience working in your neighborhood. Next, rule out companies with poor reviews online or a series of complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Since driveways affect your curb appeal, you should also ask each company for references and pictures of recent work to make sure the work the company does is professional and high quality. Finally, check that the company is licensed and insured.
