"Excellent, honest and professional service. They answered all questions I had before, during and after installation. We had a terrible flooding/drainage issue with our old driveway. We explained everything to Angelo and his crew as to what we expected for the final result. They knew and did exactly what we wanted them to do. It has rained heavily since installation and our driveway had no more flooding or drainage issues. I highly suggest if you're doing a complete remove and replace, that you have a 5 inch gravel base, with 4 inches or better of asphalt. It makes for a rock solid driveway! I would definitely hire them again!"

"I couldn't be more impressed with the work done by Martin and his crew on replacing the broken slabs in my driveway. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and thorough. The crew arrived on time, carefully removed the damaged concrete, and poured fresh, smooth slabs that blend perfectly with the rest of the driveway. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations, and the final result looks fantastic! I'd highly recommend them to anyone in need of concrete services—truly top-notch craftsmanship!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

When comparing installation costs, asphalt is often less expensive upfront than concrete. Asphalt prices typically range from $7 to $15 per square foot, while concrete can range from $3 to $18 per square foot. However, long-term costs should also be considered. Concrete driveways generally last longer (up to twice as long) and require less maintenance, which can make them more affordable over their lifespan. While asphalt has a lower installation cost and is easier to repair, it requires more frequent maintenance, such as sealing, which can add up over time. Therefore, while concrete is more expensive initially, its durability may offset the cost in the long run.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

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.

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

The choice between asphalt and concrete depends on your priorities, budget, and climate.

Concrete is generally more durable, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep, and offers more customization options like staining and stamping, which can add more to a home's value. However, it is more expensive upfront and can be prone to cracking in cold climates where water can freeze and expand.

Asphalt is typically cheaper and quicker to install and is easier to repair. It performs better in colder climates. However, it requires more maintenance, including regular resealing, has a shorter lifespan, and can get hot and sticky in intense sunlight.

Ultimately, if durability and long-term value are key, concrete is often the better choice. If upfront cost and performance in cold weather are more important, asphalt may be preferable.
