"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."

"The service was great. The gentleman all showed up on time and got right to work. I has to run errands for a little while and when I came back the job was almost complete. They were very professional. When they finished my daughter asked them to help her move something and they helped her. They came back today and sealed the driveway. They showed me just a small portion a few minutes into the job so I could see how it was. We are very pleased with the work and service provided!

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Asphalt driveways last anywhere from 15 to 30 years, but if you don’t stay on top of repairs, you may find yourself spending extra to replace your driveway before its typical lifespan. Stay on top of repairing cracks and potholes by routinely inspecting your driveway once or twice a year. It’s a good idea to pressure wash your asphalt driveway at least once a year to keep it clean. Apply a sealer every one to five years, based on your climate.

Whether you should resurface or replace your asphalt driveway heavily depends on its condition. If the foundation is solid and the damage is minor, resurfacing is your best bet because it’s more affordable and faster than replacing the driveway. But if your driveway has foundational problems and/or severe damage, like large, deep cracks and potholes, then it makes more sense to replace it. 

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.

The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.

Whether it's worth it to install a heated driveway depends on how often you'll use it, your lifestyle, and your budget. If you live in a mild climate with little snowfall, then installing a built-in heated driveway system may not be worth it. If you live in a region that experiences mild snowfall, then a portable mat could work better. However, if you live in a region with heavy snowfall, it makes sense to invest in a built-in heated driveway.
