"Henry does a great job sealing our driveway! We’ve used him several times over the years and have always been happy with his work. He’s dependable, does quality work, and is easy to work with. It’s nice having someone you can trust and call back whenever the driveway needs to be done. Would definitely recommend to anyone!!"

"Victor with Zuniga Landscaping was wonderful! I had a large job that needed taking care of on an acre of land that had been neglected by my previous lawn care person. He traveled quite a ways to quote me the job after much text communication the same day I put in my request for service. His quote was VERY reasonable and affordable for the work that needed to be done. He then returned within two days and worked several hours well into the dark of night to complete this work on the tight schedule I needed. Victor has a language barrier with speaking English, but explained to me that he uses a translation app to communicate. And the language barrier did not prevent him from communicating very promptly and courteously to every single text communication. In fact, his communication was far more attentive than anyone I have ever hired who speaks English as a first language. Additionally, the work that Victor did to complete an extensive project was REMARKABLE. Victor is simply AMAZING!! A++"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.

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.

Common alternatives to a gravel driveway include concrete, asphalt, brick, stone pavers, and permeable pavers. Concrete and asphalt are generally the most affordable options. However, concrete can be prone to cracking in cold climates, while asphalt may soften in areas with high heat and direct sun exposure. For enhanced curb appeal, brick, stone, and permeable pavers are popular choices, though their installation can be more expensive due to intricate designs. Stone pavers offer a natural look and are sometimes installed with gravel around them. Both permeable pavers and brick driveways provide excellent drainage, which helps prevent flooding and reduce water runoff.

Yes, it is possible to pave over an existing driveway, but whether it's the right choice depends on several factors. If the underlying structure of your current driveway is still strong, concrete or asphalt resurfacing can be a cost-effective way to prolong its life. However, if your driveway has significant issues like potholes, deep cracks, or other inconsistencies, it is best to remove the old driveway and start from scratch. Key factors to consider include the current driveway's condition, the compatibility of the new material, the added thickness and height, and the necessary surface preparation.

When asphalt cures, it typically changes from a very dark black hue to a lighter, more matte gray color. Cured asphalt also won’t be tacky or sticky to the touch or emit any odors from the asphalt mix. Additionally, the surface of fully cured asphalt won’t deform under any pressure.
