"From start to finish John Cooper paving did a top notch job, very professional.can’t say enough about the guys who did the job, helpful and friendly, i highly recommend this company when you need their service, you won’t be sorry you did"
"Asphalt Division did an amazing job at an amazing price and finished my (fairly long) driveway (including an area for a car turnaround) on time and ahead of schedule. The good experience started when my call was returned immediately, something that is rare these days where you are lucky if people return your messages at all. Next, John was able to quickly give me an accurate and fair estimate of the project price (using Google Street View) within a few minutes. Once the team was on site, they listened to my needs, and then executed them during the paving process. They were quick, professional, and cleaned up the surrounding area after they were done. I'm extremely happy with the results and highly recommend them to anyone for paving in Middlesex County and surrounding areas in Massachusetts."

"Noah was very professional and easy to work with. He was able to get my project done within my budget and quickly. Would definitely use Knight Paving again."
"Andrew did a great job with our front walkway and landing. We showed him a picture of what we wanted and he did exactly that! His attention to detail and craftsmanship was evident throughout the process. He was reachable and responsive during the project and was always on time and onsite when he said he would be here. He went the extra mile to make sure we were happy with the project. Highly recommend Walkways by Andrew!"
"Bernie and his team did an extensive project (walls, pavers, trees and bushes) in the front of our home. All the work and service was of the highest quality. The end result is exactly as we wanted. The team was great in coordinating with other providers (sprinklers, lighting). Absolute highest recommendation. We will be hiring them again to do our back yard."
"We are extremely happy with the job Chris and co. did in replacing our old concrete walkway with bricks. They worked neatly and efficiently and Chris helped us see our vision clearly. He’s a great guy, and has very fair pricing. We hope to use him on a project in the future. Deb D Bedford"
"David from the De'Angele Landscape & Construction Company gave excellent service at a reasonable price, just as I had wanted. I opted for their weekly clean-up and maintenance services. I moved into my new house in Rockland which had a proper front yard. My new landscaping was created by David with proper design services and gave my home an elevated and elegant appeal. I highly recommend their services to everyone."
"We had our driveway replaced, and the bid was very competitive with others. They fit us in the schedule and began work on the scheduled date. The team was very through and responded quickly to any questions or issues that arose. The completed job looked great. Our project was handled very professionally and with a goal to make sure we were happy with the finished product. They were great to work with."
"Eduardo responded to my initial inquiry quickly, set and kept his appointment to see my project, sent me a quote within a week with a reasonable offer to replace my driveway. After reviewing I hired him and his crew. They set a mutual date with me, and arrived as planned. Job was done efficiently and professionally. I am very pleased with the outcome and highly recommend Eduardo’s Paving and Construction."
Asphalt dries and cures best between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows moisture to evaporate quickly without causing the asphalt to cool too fast, which can negatively affect the drying process. However, keep in mind that other weather conditions can also affect curing and drying times, such as precipitation and humidity.
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.
You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway.
To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.
While it may be less expensive initially to lay concrete vs. pavers, the long-term expenses that come with repairing concrete may prove to be less cost-friendly than simply replacing a few damaged pavers. On top of that, stamped concrete may only last for 25 years compared to pavers, which can last over 50 years.
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.
