"Re-graded asphalt drive next to garage to prevent water entering garage during storms. Difficult job that required forming a slight swale. Flawless! Weâ ve had huge storms and no water in garage. Professional crew, totally focused on the job. Would definitely hire again."

"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.

"The work was done well overall, but I had to remove some large concrete pieces from the sloping areas around the edges. The original diggers had buried these close to the surface, which would have made landscaping impossible. This was not Jerry's fault, as they did not follow his instructions to break these up, and add them to the substrate rock under the patio base. There were delays due to the very bad weather, out of his control, but the re-scheduling needs could have been communicated better, in my opinion."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

While water-related pressure caused by poor drainage is one common cause of paver cracking, other factors can include ground movement beneath pavers, heavy loads and wear and tear over the pavers, and climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles. In general, pavers should be resealed every three to five years to prevent cracking.

Many asphalt companies have experience with tar and chip paving, but not all. The process is unique enough—and not incredibly common enough—that you may have to look around for a tar and chip specialist. However, speaking with a driveway company is a great place to start, especially if they have experience with multiple materials.

The ideal distance between stepping stones depends on your design preference. A general rule is to place them about 24 inches apart from center to center to match an average person's stride. Another common approach is to leave about 6 inches of space between the edges of each stone; this can be adjusted to fit the path's total length without cutting pavers. If you plan to plant between the stones, leave at least 6 to 8 inches of space to give the plants room to grow.

When asphalt cures, it typically changes from a very dark black hue to a lighter, more matte gray color. Cured asphalt also won’t be tacky or sticky to the touch or emit any odors from the asphalt mix. Additionally, the surface of fully cured asphalt won’t deform under any pressure.

The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape.
