"This contractor worked extremely hard to finish the job through extreme weather conditions to finish at a scheduled time much needed. For this I am very pleased. However, when they declared the job finished, I was not satisfied. They had installed a 100 feet of underground culvert which required removal and replacement of a section of a concrete driveway. All was complete except at the two ends of the culvert the backfill was already washing away due to the heavy rains and would continue to wash away. I argued that the job was not finished and that something needed to be done to finish the ends of the culvert backfill. I suggested covering with rock but they argued that was not part of the bid. I was communicating with my stepson, a very qualified contractor in another state, for advice. My contractor exclaimed that they were licensed in Louisiana and they new what they were doing. Ultimately Mr. Lenard asked me what would make me happy. I told him adding rock at the two ends of the culvert would make me extremely happy. He said youâ ve got it. They brought in the rock and finished the job. It added a minimal of extra cost to them but the job was then professionally finished. It looked right and the slope at the ends is now protected. It has now withstood the test of two rainstorms. After the rock was placed, the contractor new that adding rock was the right thing to due and so stated. They stated that they wondered why they had not thought of that up front. Ultimately, I am extremely pleased with the work and job done. I would not hesitate to recommend this contractor. I believe this contractor has learned that even more important than working hard to meet a deadline through difficult weather is the ultimate quality of the job and the ultimate customer satisfaction. To this end I am pleased with how the job turned out."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.

Even with regular maintenance, most driveways don’t last much longer than 30 years. Alligator cracking is a clear warning sign that your driveway’s foundation is failing, and cracks that are deep and wide can let water in, causing more damage. Standing water is another red flag. If your driveway doesn’t drain properly, it’s going to degrade slowly. Finally, if you’re seeing dips or uneven patches, that’s a sign the base layer or soil is shifting. If these issues pop up, it’s time to replace your driveway.

Three inches is a great thickness for a residential asphalt driveway that sees minimal to moderate traffic from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. However, a thicker driveway can better withstand the weight of a heavier vehicle, such as a trailer or a recreational vehicle. If you drive a heavy vehicle on a thin driveway, you risk cracking and damaging it.

If you notice minor cosmetic problems with your driveway, you should seal it. Look out for cracks and holes on the surface, faded asphalt or concrete, and stains from oil and other chemicals. Replacing your driveway may be necessary if you’re dealing with significant problems—¼-inch cracks, large potholes, and puddles from drainage issues. The cost to install an asphalt driveway typically ranges between $4,200 and $9,000, significantly more than resealing. Consider talking to a professional to discuss whether resurfacing your driveway—a midway project between resealing and replacing—is a better option for you.
