"Mike R was a delight to work with. Answered all calls and texts promptly, honest and experienced. His crew was fantastic. They were professional, courteous and hardworking. They had to adjust to using their equipment in a tight space and did it with ease. The job encountered an obstacle and Mike stuck to our agreed budget and fixed the problem. Such a pleasure to work with overall and the driveway looks great. Very happy customer"
"I built my house 2 yrs ago and had a gravel drive which was starting to need attention. Either more gravel or go ahead and have drive paved by a paving co. I called Nathaniel Pate, Owner of Pate and sons Paving, and asked him to come and give me a quote for asphalt paving to restore my drive. He came by that afternoon and measured the drive and explained in detail what needed to be done to make the driveway not only functional but nice looking to add curb appeal and value to my property. He knew just exactly what needed to be done and gave me the quote, which was surprisingly more reasonable than I expected. He told me it would be one to two weeks, I told him to call me when he was ready to do job and to my surprise, he called one week later and today I have a beautiful, fresh neat, clean drive that really completed the look of my house and property. No more muddy, messy driveway here !!! I really didn't know what to expect from this project but let me tell you, If you want a very professional and reliable co to take care of your driveway issues, Call Nathaniel and you will be pleased 100% in every way with his company's work. When he came by to pick up payment and to make sure I was happy with the job, I told him the drive was too pretty to drive on, He laughed, but I meant it. I am so proud of my new drive and I would absolutely without a doubt recommend Pate and Sons Paving any time. And one more thing... My 10 year old grandson told me he couldn't wait to ride his scooter on it. More good times ahead !!! Thanks for reading this ...you won't be sorry .....call them today and get that new drive !!!"

"I had a driveway extension done. Him and his team did an awesome job. I highly recommend him and will definitely use him in the future for any big concrete jobs."
A solid driveway starts with the right asphalt mix, and for most homes, dense-graded hot mix asphalt (HMA) is the most recommended. It’s both durable and flexible, making it a reliable choice for residential use. A properly compacted 2-3 inch layer on a well-prepared crushed stone base will hold up for years. In areas with harsh winters or scorching summers, a slightly modified mix can help prevent cracking and rutting. No matter the climate, quality installation is just as important as the material itself, so hiring an experienced contractor ensures a smooth, long-lasting driveway built to last.
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?
Asphalt is made of aggregate materials (sand, rocks, and gravel) and bitumen, a viscous, petroleum-based, waterproof substance. These materials are mixed together at extremely high temperatures to form asphalt.
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.
DIY is not recommended due to equipment and expertise requirements. Professional services ensure durability and proper grading.
