"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!"

"Review: Spoke with Paul and described what we wanted completed on our front stoop. He was able to come out and discuss possible solutions that would work for us. The estimate was very reasonable for the small job. Once we reviewed the estimate and agreed, Paul and his partner consulted on configuration of the plan for the additional landing and side walk area, they came out, framed, got the concrete poured and finished the two areas on one of the hottest days so far. We were pleased with the finished product and would recommend them to anyone."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

The material that’s best for your private road depends on your property, the climate in your area, and your personal preferences. Gravel is an affordable option, but some homeowners don’t like how it looks. It can be a pain to remove snow from, and it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or concrete. However, while these other options require less maintenance and make snow removal a breeze, they’re more expensive and will need repairs from time to time. Ultimately, you’ll have to choose the road material that suits you and your property best.

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.

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.
