"Travis and his partner are amazing! Our driveway went from the street in front, along the house, to the back fence. Part of it was asphalt, and part of it the concrete from an old garage that was removed long before I moved in. While we tried ourselves to remove it all, eventually we called Trinity, and a few other companies. Not only did Trinity give us the best estimate, all communication with them was prompt and professional. When they arrived, they were great guys who did a beautiful job. Next year we're probably going to be repaving what's left of the driveway, and we'll call them immediately."

"Al helped plan a landscaping project involving flattening a hill along one side of our driveway. He suggested a couple of solutions considering the entire cost of the project, not just his portion (for example including the cost of hauling soil vs. regrading vs. repair work to a sprinkler system). We also worked out a plan where we could relocate some of our natural stone wall.
He told us he had a month's work ahead of ours, which was a bit of a bummer since we would have preferred the work to start sooner, but the work started on schedule. The work was completed quickly and was exactly what we wanted and agreed to.
They solved our driveway problem!

"I ORDERED A LOAD OF BLACK DIRT FROM THE COMPANY AND THEY DUMPED THE DIRT IN THE WRONG PLACE AND LEFT RUTS IN MY YARD. THE PERSON WHO TOOK MY ORDER ON THE PHONE ASSURED ME THAT THEIR DRIVER WAS VERY CAREFUL ABOUT WHERE THERE TRUCK IS DRIVEN AND WOULD CONTACT ME IF THERE WAS CONCERN ABOUT DAMAGING PROPERTY OR WHERE THE DIRT WAS TO BE DUMPED."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.

When hiring an asphalt paving contractor to install your driveway, ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective driveway contractor:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • Do you use subcontractors on your projects?

  • Do you clean up after the job is done?

  • Who is responsible for any damage to lawn or landscaping?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?

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

Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.

The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.
