"Hired Alberto for yard drainage issues. He responded quickly and was very helpful. His crew installed a drybed and underground drains. They did a greatvjob and were very professional. In fact, they did such a good job, I contacted Alberto the next summer to build a deck. Another great job! My wife and I are really impressed with the work and knowledge that Alberto and his crew showed us. Highly recommended!"

"I can heartily recommend Dana Sandoval and North Star. We first spoke in September 2019 about re- landscaping our 30 year old home. Dana was through, timely and professional. She presented an extensive plan w reasonable pricing. Personal circumstances put things on hold until the spring of 2020. We kept in touch, revisited, revised and decided to phase our project. Dana got things going in August and we’re very pleased with the results. In addition I contracted w Dana/ ,North Star to perform bed maintain for 2021 and will renew for 2022. They are good people you can trust."

"Extremely well in every respect. They had their equipment in the area finishing up a commercial job nearby, and had extra material, so they cold-called me (based on the condition of my driveway, I'm sure!), explained their services and measured up the drive and provided a firm quote on the spot. The price was right and I liked the gentlemen (Robert Elsten, the owner and his nephew Rocky), so we shook hands and agreed they'd bring their equipment over to my drive and get started the next day. Early the next day Robert called and explained that the light drizzle that was expected during the day would make it less than ideal for asphalt to adhere, so we agreed they'd get started the following Monday, when sunny conditions were called for. They showed up on time and got to work with a cleanup crew of 10 or so and were ready to start paving by noon. We have a circle drive, a cutout with a carport (supported by four posts) and an extension to the two-car garage . The surface applied was even, uniform and right up to the curb and the garage and consistent around the carport posts. We had a light rain the next day and there is almost no pooling of water - excellent grading and drainage. All around a top-flight experience. Recommended!

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

Costs range from $3 to $7 per square foot, depending on the area size and project scope.

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.

The cost to replace a driveway ranges from $8 to $15 per square foot, depending on factors that include material, size, and labor. If your driveway has deep cracks, potholes, or drainage issues (or if it’s simply past its prime), replacement might be the smarter investment over constant repairs. Resurfacing can be a cheaper alternative at $3 to $20 per square foot, but it won’t fix your driveway’s underlying problems.

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.
