"Bart Costello came over and gave me an estimate for a driveway seal coating with an oil-based product. He and his small crew arrived on time and trimmed grass that had grown out onto the driveway. Good job on that. Then he sprayed the sealant while his crew back-brushed. They even did a 40-foot walkway that was not quoted -- and did not charge extra for that. My driveway is 25 years old and badly cracked. It will eventually have to be rebuilt. But I think the new sealcoat will buy me a few years before I have to face that $15,000 job. For now, the driveway's looks have been greatly enhanced. I would definitely recommend him."

Customers say: Quick response

"Such a great company with an eye for detail! Rick was professional, courteous and honest. They showed up as promised every day and communicated with us throughout the project. Price was more than fair and the attention to detail was more than we had ever expected for the price that we were given. He turned our driveway which was muddy, rutted, and just an overall mess into a solid, well drained, flat and clean driveway that left us blown away in how perfect it looked and felt! They even stacked rocks at our ditch, added drainage and fabric in an area that was always a soupy mess and put down crushed rock before laying the gravel. We have a driveway that we now want to show off to everyone! We would recommend him and his guys to anyone who asks!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

If you notice minor cosmetic problems with your driveway, you should seal it. Look out for cracks and holes on the surface, faded asphalt or concrete, and stains from oil and other chemicals. Replacing your driveway may be necessary if you’re dealing with significant problems—¼-inch cracks, large potholes, and puddles from drainage issues. The cost to install an asphalt driveway typically ranges between $4,200 and $9,000, significantly more than resealing. Consider talking to a professional to discuss whether resurfacing your driveway—a midway project between resealing and replacing—is a better option for you.

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.

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.

Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn’t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment. 

A driveway approach is the part of a driveway where the public road meets the private driveway. This section contains several key elements, including the driveway apron, the curb cut, and the end slope. Depending on the slope of the driveway, this area may also contain the trench drain.
