"Joe and the crew from E Stanley did a great job widening our driveway. The job consisted of three parts. First, dig under the existing driveway and remove the roots that were growing underneath. Second, dig a couple of feet on both sides of our existing driveway to widen it out. Finally, pour asphalt on top of the driveway to replace the old one. Joe came in at the best price and finish the entire job in a single day.."

"Jose and his team at Brothers Pavers, Inc. are true professionals with the highest integrity and a pleasure with whom to work. They beat out the competition with clear communication and reasonable pricing and earned our confidence with careful attention to detail. Jose took great care to explain every element of the project and the team at Brothers Pavers implemented the vision with impressive precision. Brothers Pavers created a beautiful hardscape including a LARGE PATIO, RETAINING/SITTING WALL, and FIRE PIT and -- in addition -- made magic happen in doing a difficult DRIVEWAY REPAIR. This was a big project and the entire team was courteous, timely, and demonstrated an impressive work ethic throughout. The job was finished on time and on budget (and the cleanup after was impeccable). Jose and his team at Brothers Pavers, Inc. are honest, knowledgeable and hard-working. We recommend them highly and look forward to working with them again, soon!! THANK YOU BROTHERS PAVERS!!!!!!!!!!"

"One of the best things about Mr. Bravo’s work was how quickly a large parking pad & patio space was created that gave my 8yo granddaughter a great skating, scootering and hopscotch wonderland! Bravo’s ideas to improve on the original plans actually widened our narrow driveway more than we expected with really well engineered retaining walls that had been leaning for years. Old crumbling old driveway has been reborn and we couldn’t be happier with Bravo’s performance. Highly recommend him!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Several materials are suitable for steep driveways. Gravel and crushed stone are affordable options that provide good traction. Permeable pavers—such as plastic, rubber, or concrete—filled with gravel or crushed stones are also excellent, as they allow water to drain without causing erosion and perform well in ice and snow. Another option is resin, which can be coated with an anti-slip finish and helps prevent puddles. For added stability, you can install a retaining wall to prevent pavers and gravel from shifting over time.

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.

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

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.

Even with regular maintenance, most driveways don’t last much longer than 30 years. Alligator cracking is a clear warning sign that your driveway’s foundation is failing, and cracks that are deep and wide can let water in, causing more damage. Standing water is another red flag. If your driveway doesn’t drain properly, it’s going to degrade slowly. Finally, if you’re seeing dips or uneven patches, that’s a sign the base layer or soil is shifting. If these issues pop up, it’s time to replace your driveway.
