"LTs Paving Solutions was referred to me by Home Advisor when I was looking for asphalt contractors for my deteriorated driveway and carport pad. I searched on Google, Yelp and Home Advisors sites for reviews of asphalt companies in our area. LTs Paving Solutions stood out with the highest ratings and highest number of customer reviews, as well as an A rating with the Better Business Bureau. I met with Timothy Oaks, owner and project manager of LTs Solutions. He provided a drone generated aerial photo with markup that showed an outline of the projected driveway with square footage which he forwarded to me on my phone during the interview. This was quite effective. He then proposed what he would do in detail. He gave a two-day timeline and threw in the replacement of a deteriorated asphalt path. I texted a few follow-up questions and Tim responded immediately. I accepted his bid for removal and replacement of the existing asphalt the next day. LTs Paving Solutions emailed a contract outlining the scope of the project. Very thorough with no surprises. On the second day of work, an official from the city dropped by and explained that the apron at the entrance of the driveway would require concrete instead of asphalt as per city codes. Since the city required concrete, Tim proposed a more consistent look by doing everything in the same material. Tims price to go ahead with concrete was reasonable and made good sense. I agreed to go with concrete. Everything went smoothly after the changes. The work was done with skill, precision, and I might add... artistry. Everything was as exactly promised in our first conversation. The driveway, carport and sidewalk look amazing. A perfect job."

"We have not done the work yet because it was more than we were expecting. We have an extremely large driveway. The estimate was detailed and contained all the info we needed. It was a good quality estimate. It was not hand written it was typed up and had a lot of detail. They got back to me within a few hours and someone was out to look at the work within 3 days, and they got back to me with the estimate. I would use them again."

"I requested quotes from multiple providers through Angie's List. William from Central Paving was the quickest to respond and did the best job of following up. He also did a great job describing what would be done and setting the proper expectations. The team that did the job were punctual, communicated well, and did a super job bringing my driveway back to life. I will definitely be calling them the next time I need my driveway resealed."

"Extremely well. The owner and his employees were considerate and always concerned with our property and that of our neighbor. In a relatively small space  their creative ideas and use of colors and patterns turned an eyesore into a place we can enjoy and share with family and friends. The project was completed in four days and a pool that was in close proximity was as pristine as the day the project started. The work is hard and tedious and we greatly appreciate their patience in answering our questions and keeping us informed on their progress, and what was coming next. Good folks, fun to be around. It took us a while to find Grounds
Quality Lawn Care and it was worth the wait.

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

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.

Yes, pea gravel is good for driveways as long as your driveway isn’t built on a hill or any type of slope where it can slide. It’ll settle on a flat surface and create a suitable driveway over time, though some spreading initially will take place. If you're wondering how to make a gravel driveway in a high-rainfall area, using pea gravel could help you to cut down on costs needed for extra drainage solutions.

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.

The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape.
