"I hired These guys to install a new asphalt driveway at my property as my old one was cracked and damaged and had a few potholes, I also wanted to widen the driveway by 3 feet. They were quick to come out and look at the job, they gave me a fair price, scheduled me in for two weeks later and the job was complete. I am very happy with how the driveway has come out and I would recommend them to anybody who is interested in having asphalt installed."

"Eddie and his crew (Josh, Juilio, Steve, John.....) replaced our entire driveway. The driveway was over 40 years old and had a significant drainage issue. Eddie reviewed the driveway, very competitively priced the replacement and recommended a drainage fix that corrected a very difficult driveway design. Eddie was on site for the entire replacement, the removal of the old blacktop, undesirable sub base and some areas that needed sawcutting. Then his crew compacted the new base with an excellent crushed stone base, installed the new drainage 1,000 gallon precast concrete drywell with drainage pipe and expanded some areas of the existing driveway. Then the final install of the asphalt was liking watching an orchestra perform. The crew was amazing under Eddie's guidance, the attention to detail to each area of the driveway install was so satisfying to watch. The weather during the install was not perfect, but Eddie and his crew were never distracted to doing a perfect driveway install. I am a very satisfied customer with Eddie's communication from the quoting process to his communication for the after care of driveway. A high quality driveway by Pave Tech that I am confident will exceed industry standard and a great home value that is used everyday."

"We wanted to have our driveway redone but thought it would be REALLY expensive. This company did a neighbor's house and we asked for quote. We were surprise at the estimate and had them had do it. They shim low area, took out some gravel, removed some old gravel, etc. Did a quick, clean, excellent job. Another neighbor watched them with our driveway and decided there and then to have her driveway done as well. We would recommend this company."

"We recently had our entire brick building tuckpointed in Brookline and the results were outstanding. The crew was professional, clean, and extremely detail-oriented from start to finish. They matched the mortar perfectly and made the whole building look brand new again. They showed up on time every day, kept the site organized, and finished the project exactly when promised. If you need full building tuckpointing done right, I highly recommend this company. Top quality workmanship and very fair pricing."

"Zammito & his crew were at my home to take a tree down. We briefly spoke about my retaining wall which was in need of some serious repair. He & his crew started working that week. I had been dragged along by other masons and he and his crew started immediately. They worked quickly, efficiently and did not leave a mess. I have already recommended him to friends & he had already begun work for them. 10/10"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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. 

Sometimes, when people talk about asphalt driveways, they’re actually referring to asphalt concrete, which is a completely different compound. Asphalt concrete is asphaltic cement combined with sand or grit. It is significantly more lasting and durable than regular asphalt but also much more expensive. If you’re considering using asphalt concrete, ask an asphalt company for their expert opinions.

New asphalt typically needs 24 to 72 hours to dry before it can handle light foot traffic and careful driving. Although it may appear solid after a few days, the full curing process, where the asphalt reaches its peak strength, takes much longer—generally from 30 days to a year.

During this extended curing time, the surface remains relatively soft and can be damaged by heavy vehicles, sharp objects, or high temperatures. To protect your investment, it's best to avoid parking heavy machinery on the asphalt until it has fully cured.

The exact time required for drying and curing depends on several factors, including the weather, the specific asphalt mix, and its thickness. For the most accurate advice tailored to your situation, consult with your asphalt contractor.

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.

In most cases, you don’t need a permit to repave your driveway, although some exceptions exist. If you’re widening your driveway and plan on widening the apron as well, you’ll usually need a permit from the Department of Transportation in your area. This permit costs between $50 and $300 in most cases. Most municipalities will also require a certified and insured contractor do the work relating to the apron and curb cut. You can contact your building department or ask your paving company if you need a permit. Your driveway professional will usually pull the permit for you.
