"Had talked with paving contractors late last year. I had misplaced contact information and couldnt seem to find NE ABC on Home Advisor. However Jason was notified through Home Advisor that I was soliciting quotes and, to my delight, he contacted me. Price was in line with other comparable paving companies. Jason quoted cost for entire (private) road as well and worked with individual homeowners about specific needs for driveways. I gave him a 4 star overall rating because there were some scheduling issues. However, after discussing scheduling needs Jason stayed in communication and rest of the project went extremely well. Final paving job is awesome and I'm so glad to have worked with New England ABC."

"I decided to pave my driveway on Thursday. I went to Home Advisor, who gave three possible clients. I requested estimates. Friday around 10 AM I was contacted by Asphalt Experts. He came by, measured the area to be paved and gave an estimate. He said he might be able to do the job later that day. He was back around 3:30 and did what he said at the price he said he would. He also offered to do some work that was not related to the paving job, at no cost. They were very capable and efficient and did an excellent job."

"After obtaining a few estimates from paving companies we decided on having John and his crew pave our driveway. They arrived when they said to estimate the work and again arrived when they said (on time) again to pave. Very well orchestrated crew where everyone knew their tasks as if like they’ve been working together for a long time. We are so very pleased with the final results and everyone that asks us who did the work we happily tell them John and his crew. Great job guys"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

Interlocking pavers offer a number of advantages over regular pavers. For instance, they’re more durable, more resistant to shifting, and easier to repair. There are also permeable options that allow for drainage. However, interlocking pavers are more often more expensive than regular pavers and are prone to growing weeds over time.

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.

Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.
