"We had John and the crew do work on our driveway, including fixing the apron and putting down new stone on our approximately 100‑ft long driveway. The process was done right from start to finish—they laid down hard pack first, rolled it out, then added the stone and rolled that as well. A new asphalt apron was installed at the top, and it came out beautiful.In addition, a drain was installed in our other driveway to catch water running down from the road, which made a big difference. John and the crew were professional, on time, and extremely hard‑working.We plan to hire them again this spring to asphalt our other driveway. Highly recommend John and the crew for quality work and great results."

"I highly recommend Petra Hardscape and Masonry! They installed a patio and did an outstanding job! They were very competitive on price, showed up promptly for the quote and arranged for installation in a timely manner for my project timeline. I can’t say enough of how pleased I am with the work they did and the great service they provided. On a scale from 1-10 they were a 10+ . I’m hiring them for my next project of installation of pavers in my driveway and to replace my front walkway put in a few years ago installed improperly by another mason to install one properly. I can’t wait. I say anyone looking at this review, don’t wait to call Petra Hardscape and Masonary, I assure you you’ll be very happy you did!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

This creates a risk for your driveway to fail after asphalt curing because it doesn't have a lasting bond with the surface. In order to get asphalt to perform as intended, it's necessary to prepare the dirt surface correctly first. The loose soil base under the new driveway must be compacted until it is stable enough to support the weight of the asphalt.

A driveway's lifespan varies by material. Asphalt driveways typically last 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last longer, between 20 and 50 years. The longevity of any driveway is affected by factors like extreme temperatures, heavy traffic, and the quality of maintenance. Regular upkeep, such as filling cracks, resealing the surface, and ensuring proper drainage, can help extend its life. For gravel driveways, regrading to fill in uneven areas every year or two is recommended.

Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.

The dimensions of a driveway apron vary based on local building codes, the width of your driveway, and the distance between the driveway and the road. On average, aprons range from 12 to 24 feet wide and 8 to 18 feet long. Typically, the end of the apron connected to the driveway matches its width—such as 10 to 12 feet for a single-car driveway—while the end at the street flares out to allow cars to turn in and out more easily. In some areas, you may not be responsible for the portion of the apron that extends beyond the sidewalk, but this depends on local laws.

While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues.
