"I requested a quote for a new driveway and sidewalk for an addition I was putting on my house. I also needed to do a retaining wall and re-do a brick paver patio. Steve provided a fair quote, was able to start the job about a week after I hired them, and completed it in three days. Looks fantastic. Highly recommend White Wolf."

"Lower Peninsula Sealcoating did a great job on my 2100 sq ft driveway. Communication was good as they kept me informed of the process and arrived at the agreed upon time. The job included repairing a pot hole as well as filling cracks and sealcoating. Throughout, they were efficient, professional and pleasant. The price was fair and representative of similar quotes from other companies. I will hire again them in future as the need arises."

"I hired American Asphalt for a project that included sealcoating, hot rubber crack filling, striping and several asphalt repairs on a commercial lot—and I’m extremely pleased with their work. What stood out most was their attention to detail and their communication. They explained each step of the process clearly, and there were no surprises. The entire job was completed on schedule, and the lot was left clean and ready to use. If you’re looking for high-quality asphalt work done by a team that knows what they’re doing, I highly recommend American Asphalt. I’ll definitely be using them again in the future."

"Brian was very nice, said he'd do the job mid April, called in March and said he could come that day due to a cancelation and we were thrilled. Took about 5 hours, and now we can use our driveway again. Very professional, fast, thorough and quality of work is very good. Would hire him again."

"They really make it easy to do business with them. We're generally not available during the day, but they were able to come out when we were available, more than once. From original discussions, to reviewing plans and bringing out paver samples. Very accommodating. We also had a hard deadline with a party coming up and they more than beat it. Once they dug up the mess that was our previous patio (cement, lava rocks, a huge lilac), they found other issues with drain pipes, etc. but they kept me in the loop, proposed a quality solution and got it done without drama. There's always something that you can't see in a home improvement project and you just want it to be fixed the right way without a lot of stress or extra cost, that's exactly what happened here, other things got corrected and now I don't have to worry about those."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

New asphalt goes through two stages: drying and curing. Drying typically takes 24 to 72 hours, after which the surface is solid enough for light use like walking or careful driving. While you may be able to park on it after 72 hours, the surface is still soft and should be treated gently. Full curing is a much longer process, taking anywhere from 30 days to a full year for the asphalt to reach maximum strength. During this extended curing period, the asphalt is susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles, sharp objects, and high temperatures. Factors like weather, the specific asphalt mix, and application thickness all influence drying and curing times. For the most accurate timeline and to ensure the longevity of your new asphalt, it is always best to consult with your installation contractor for their specific recommendations.

Asphalt paving offers several benefits, including cost-effectiveness and a quick installation process. It provides a durable and smooth surface, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. With proper maintenance, asphalt also offers longevity.

Three inches is a great thickness for a residential asphalt driveway that sees minimal to moderate traffic from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. However, a thicker driveway can better withstand the weight of a heavier vehicle, such as a trailer or a recreational vehicle. If you drive a heavy vehicle on a thin driveway, you risk cracking and damaging it.

Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.

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.
