I didn’t even have measurements and got on google something and had measurement adequate enough. He gave a quick and fair quote! Even threw in replacing the culvert free if I just bought the culvert."

"Cody Wallace came out and gave us a quick estimate on our driveway and back sidewalk/patio area. His price was within the range of 3 other contractors we had come out with estimates. He was very friendly, knowledgable and professional. We initially chose another company because of a better quoted price, but after a month of no response from that person, we called up Cody. We came out the next day for another estimate and to refresh himself on the job details. Even though he normally did not write up contracts, he was willing to put in writing the details of the work he would be doing for us.
Cody was able to start the job the very next week. They took one day to excavate and build the forms. They began early in the morning and were done by 3pm. Cody called me both at the beginning and end of the day to let us know what he planned to do, and what he had gotten done. He walked us around and showed us his plans and answered any of our questions. The next day the concrete arrived and they poured the entire job in one day. Cody said normally it would have taken 2 days, but because of rain in the forecast for that evening he wanted to get it finished. He called up additional workers just to get our driveway finished before the rain.  When an issue arose with the grading of the driveway, Cody notified me of the problem and then told me how he could fix the problem with a drainage area in our driveway. 
We needed to have dirt filled in around the edges of the new back sidewalk and driveway. Even though that was not something Cody originally agreed to do, when we asked him about it, he offered to use his equipment to spread out the dirt--free of charge. He found the best rated dirt and company to bring out a load of dirt. Then Cody himself came and spent half a day spreading it around our yard for us.
His crew was extremely hard working and professional. They were very courteous and did not make a huge mess. After he was finished, he walked us around and showed us everything he did. We were pleased--above and beyond our expectations. We trusted him to give us quality work and he delivered with and ease and satisfaction that showed he had a lot of experience. Whenever I called him and left a message, he would always return my call within 24 hours. I would recommend Wallace Concrete to anybody.

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

The choice between asphalt and concrete depends on your priorities, budget, and climate.

Concrete is generally more durable, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep, and offers more customization options like staining and stamping, which can add more to a home's value. However, it is more expensive upfront and can be prone to cracking in cold climates where water can freeze and expand.

Asphalt is typically cheaper and quicker to install and is easier to repair. It performs better in colder climates. However, it requires more maintenance, including regular resealing, has a shorter lifespan, and can get hot and sticky in intense sunlight.

Ultimately, if durability and long-term value are key, concrete is often the better choice. If upfront cost and performance in cold weather are more important, asphalt may be preferable.

Asphalt dries and cures best between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows moisture to evaporate quickly without causing the asphalt to cool too fast, which can negatively affect the drying process. However, keep in mind that other weather conditions can also affect curing and drying times, such as precipitation and humidity.

This creates a risk for your driveway to fail after asphalt curing because it doesn't have a lasting bond with the surface. In order to get asphalt to perform as intended, it's necessary to prepare the dirt surface correctly first. The loose soil base under the new driveway must be compacted until it is stable enough to support the weight of the asphalt.

Chip seal layers gravel and a liquid bitumen one at a time on-site, while asphalt directly pours a pre-combined mixture. Asphalt must be sealed, but it will last up to four times as long as chip seal driveways. Aesthetically, chip seal has a natural, rustic look compared to the traditional asphalt slab.

New asphalt goes through two stages: drying and curing. Drying typically takes 24 to 72 hours, after which the surface is solid enough for light use like walking or careful driving. While you may be able to park on it after 72 hours, the surface is still soft and should be treated gently. Full curing is a much longer process, taking anywhere from 30 days to a full year for the asphalt to reach maximum strength. During this extended curing period, the asphalt is susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles, sharp objects, and high temperatures. Factors like weather, the specific asphalt mix, and application thickness all influence drying and curing times. For the most accurate timeline and to ensure the longevity of your new asphalt, it is always best to consult with your installation contractor for their specific recommendations.
