"Everything happened as scheduled and was well done. It was confusing in the beginning being asked whether my driveway needed repaving or just sealing, which would dictate which person my request would be referred to. I hope I guessed right. It would be nice if an expert could come, make that determination/recommendation, and not put it on the homeowner."

"Sam & the crew were friendly, courteous & professional. They were very accurate when working near the property lines. The work was beautiful, they backfilled the yard so that we had no drop off next to the driveway and they cleaned up all the dirt they excavated and hauled away excess asphalt. We are very happy. Also a neighbor came down and hired them to put a driveway in at his house ð"

"Central seal coating, and mowing is owned and operated by Travis Wilson. Licensed and insured company. We Couldn’t be more happier! Driveway and parking lot looks great. Travis was very thorough with his explanation for work he was performing am my residence. Travis and his employees are very respectful, honest and hard-working. Central seal coating and mowing does exceptional work. Travis is an independent owner/operator contractor, who funds all of his own materials prior to it being done. He just asked to be paid when the job is complete and you’re satisfied with central sealcoating and mowings work. He guarantees his work and stands behind it. Central sealcoating and mowing was very professional. Don’t expect to pay a fortune to have work performed by central Sealcoating & mowing.I recommend central seal coating in mowing for all your asphalt needs"

"After soliciting proposals from several asphalt paving companies, not all of which even bothered to respond, we settled on Rafferty Paving.  Sam was responsive, showed up on time, and took a great deal of time to explain what he felt needed to be done to repair/repave our driveway and why certain things needed to be done. 
Sam stated up front that he wasn?t the cheapest, which is true, but we were very impressed with Sam?s detailed description of the work he would perform, and particularly impressed with Sam?s attention to detail, not just from a functional perspective but also from an aesthetic perspective; he noticed issues that others did not. 
In addition to repaving the driveway and replacing sections of it, where necessary, Sam created a paved parking area; importantly, he addressed water runoff issues that had been degrading our driveway and I?m pleased to say that those runoff fixes seem to be working beautifully.  The project was fairly large due to length and grade of our driveway, but Sam and his crew completed the job in two days; we were thrilled with the final product.  We found Sam to be knowledgeable, professional and attentive to our concerns.  His crew worked hard and did a great job of cleaning up after the work was done. 
While the proposal we got from Sam was the highest in terms of price, I?m confident that the additional cost was worth every penny in terms of quality, and product delivered.  We intend to use Rafferty Paving to seal our driveway next year, and would most definitely recommend their services to customers who are looking for a first class finished product.

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

By grading and compacting the base soil, ensuring proper drainage and stability.

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.

A solid driveway starts with the right asphalt mix, and for most homes, dense-graded hot mix asphalt (HMA) is the most recommended. It’s both durable and flexible, making it a reliable choice for residential use. A properly compacted 2-3 inch layer on a well-prepared crushed stone base will hold up for years. In areas with harsh winters or scorching summers, a slightly modified mix can help prevent cracking and rutting. No matter the climate, quality installation is just as important as the material itself, so hiring an experienced contractor ensures a smooth, long-lasting driveway built to last.

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.

Driveway paving costs around $4,500 on average, but depending on many factors, you could pay anywhere from $2,500 to $6,600 or more. The size of your driveway will usually be the most significant factor, with more square footage increasing your costs. You can expect to pay between $2 and $15 per square foot for paving services. Some other factors that play a role include the following:

  • Quality of the materials

  • Contractor’s experience and expertise

  • Site preparation and grading, if necessary

  • Layout of your driveway
