"I hired CJ and crew to fix a botched driveway job left unfinished by a previous contractor. The prior contractor created an area where water pooled near the back door, the exact problem I was trying to fix with the new driveway. CJ made at least half a dozen visits to my home throughout the process to be sure everything was done thoroughly and to be sure we were on the same page. The job also included a kitchen stoop which joined up to the driveway. CJ suggested enlarging the platform and adding steps on two sides instead of just one. It looks terrific, and I longer worry about falling off my steps. The crew worked really hard and were there for about 3 days. They were very pleasant and professional. Although there was a delay due to a shortage of concrete, CJ kept in touch with me and there were no surprises--except the fantastic job they did!"

"Hello everyone, I hired Umbrella roofing and masonry after another company called Lake County Construction did a terrible job, I have pictures Umbrella roofing did an excellent job, I recommend them 110% they did the job within 2 days, tear out the old driveway in one day and concrete pour the next with excellent results I cannot be more satisfied and happier. David kept in contact with me throughout the process, excellent work by his team. Thanks to all Gus"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

In terms of durability, concrete driveways can last more than 50 years when properly maintained, compared to the typical 30 years for an asphalt driveway. However, the durability depends on the climate, base material and thickness, and thickness of the concrete or asphalt used. The longevity of concrete or asphalt driveways also depends on how well it’s maintained and the amount of wear and tear it endures.

Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can cause asphalt to crack, including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.

When hiring an asphalt paving contractor to install your driveway, ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective driveway contractor:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • Do you use subcontractors on your projects?

  • Do you clean up after the job is done?

  • Who is responsible for any damage to lawn or landscaping?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?

Concrete is typically the best material for a driveway if you’re looking for longevity, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance. But, it’s not ideal for areas with annual freeze-frost cycles, nor is it the most attractive option—although you can get it stamped or painted. If your location is consistently below freezing, asphalt may be a better choice.

Yes, recycled asphalt driveway costs can be substantially lower than new asphalt. With new asphalt costing between $90 and $190 per ton, this option can cost as much as 10 times more than laying down asphalt millings.
