"They did a great job on our driveway and when I was first contacted they came out that day to do the quote. The day they were supposed to do the driveway no one called or showed up. I was contacted later that night and told some issues had come up and that they would be here the next day at 11am. I understand things happen but a phone call earlier in the day would have been appreciated. Other than that small snag I was very satisfied with the work that was done."

"Helped with the design/estimating of an outside brick paver walkway and firepit area. Met us at a stone supply business and showed us all the choices and helped us choose. They then performed the work: Removed the old stepping stone walk, dug the new path and laid the pavers, including a massive 600 lb stone step. The old stepping stones were carefully stacked in another area for us to re-use at a later date. They cleaned and raked up the entire area and even took away some old rotted scrap wood I had piled up.

Overall it was a GREAT job and took the 2-3 days they had estimated.

The workers that did the actual work were very friendly, conscientious and helpful.

We have some additional walks that we will want pavers for and will call Peninsula Pavers FIRST!."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.

DIY is not recommended due to equipment and expertise requirements. Professional services ensure durability and proper grading.

Sometimes, when people talk about asphalt driveways, they’re actually referring to asphalt concrete, which is a completely different compound. Asphalt concrete is asphaltic cement combined with sand or grit. It is significantly more lasting and durable than regular asphalt but also much more expensive. If you’re considering using asphalt concrete, ask an asphalt company for their expert opinions.

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.

If your driveway is cracked, you can repave it with a process called asphalt overlay. Overlay is more cost-effective than a full replacement but is better suited for minor cracks and issues. If you have major cracks or other problems like water pooling, asphalt overlay isn’t your best bet. Plus, paving over a cracked driveway only extends the lifetime by about 10 years, whereas replacing it would start the clock over completely to give you up to 30 years.
