"A huge shout out to Fred Cameron and his crew. They did a fabulous job paving my driveway. Fred was super to meet and talk with, he came out and met with me gave me a quote right on the spot. He gave me some great input on what he thought was best for our project. Fred had great ideas and you could tell years of experience as he explained things. Fred and his crew came when he said they would and had the project wrapped in the time he said it would take. Fred's crew were extremely pleasant and professional about the job they all worked hard and very efficiently. I would highly recommend BlackTop Paving to anyone looking to get their driveway done. Thank you Fred for a wonderful experience. Thank you to Fred's crew for all their hard work. I am a very happy customer. 😊 Rusty L"
"Pleasant and customer focused; requested a short notice (4 day) upgrade of driveway before Thanksgiving... at first he was not able to fit us in. He then showed up and completed the work before the holiday. We expect to have additional work done in the spring. Highly recommend!"
"We had a great experience working with G.A. Doughty Construction. From the start, their team was communicative, responsive, and collaborative—making sure we were involved and informed at every step. They helped us navigate and recover from a difficult prior experience, stepping in with professionalism and integrity to get the work done right. Their commitment to quality and transparency gave us real peace of mind, and we’re grateful for their expertise and support throughout the project."
"The gentlemen with D&M Earthworks were very responsive. I hired them to repair my driveway, the work was done ahead of schedule, on budget and with outstanding quality. All of their employees were pleasant, knowledgeable and willing to help. I could not recommend them highly enough. It is so refreshing to work with a local business with integrity, and be thoroughly pleased too."
The time it takes to pressure wash your driveway is mainly based on size (but your driveway’s material and condition also play a role). Small driveways can be pressure washed within an hour, medium within two hours, and large within four hours. However, this does not consider any prep time or time that sealing your driveway would take.
You shouldn’t directly paint over an oil stain on your asphalt driveway. While painting over might visually conceal the stain, the oil will continue to damage the driveway. Once you’ve noticed the oil stain, it’s important to thoroughly remove it within the next few months since oil stains only take six months before they begin to damage the structure of your asphalt driveway.
If your garage floor is heavily soiled or stained, then it’s a good idea to powerwash it with a concrete cleaner before sealing. This process will remove dirt and debris to help the new sealer bond to the concrete properly, and it will also improve the look of your sealed garage floor. After power washing your floor, make sure you let the concrete dry completely before applying sealant, usually for 24 to 48 hours.
You can hire a landscaper to clean up your asphalt driveway or make minor repairs. You can also hire a company that specializes in asphalt driveway installation and repair. For cleaning jobs, most landscapers charge by the hour. Pressure washing a driveway costs between $100 to $350, but spot treatments and refilling damaged asphalt will cost extra.
Pressure washing your driveway can prevent cracks in it since it removes grease and oil, which, if left on the driveway for too long, can break down compounds in concrete and asphalt, leading to cracks. It can also help keep driveway weeds, moss, mold, and mildew at bay while boosting your home's curb appeal.
