"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently hired Everlast RoadTech to pave my 20x55 gravel driveway, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their work. From the first consultation to the final layer of asphalt, their team was professional, punctual, and incredibly efficient. They provided a clear breakdown of the process, addressed all my questions patiently, and even helped me explore sustainable material options, which I appreciated. The crew showed up on time, worked seamlessly, and completed the job ahead of schedule. The end result? A smooth, durable surface that looks fantastic and already stands up to New England weather. Customer service was top-notch, and I’d absolutely hire them again for future projects. If you're looking for reliable, detail-oriented paving experts, Everlast RoadTech delivers."

"Mostly went well--3.5 stars more accurate. Price was good and competitive. Communication was mostly good--a bit better before the job than after. My neighbor and I both needed some follow-up, and we had to really persist to get things done, which ultimately they were. A bit more damage to the lawn and mediocre reseeding job than I would've liked, but all in all would recommend them"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.

If your driveway is cracked, you can repave it with a process called asphalt overlay. Overlay is more cost-effective than a full replacement but is better suited for minor cracks and issues. If you have major cracks or other problems like water pooling, asphalt overlay isn’t your best bet. Plus, paving over a cracked driveway only extends the lifetime by about 10 years, whereas replacing it would start the clock over completely to give you up to 30 years.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn’t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment. 

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.
