"My driveway was repaved about a month and a half ago. I was led to believe from the estimator, as well as the written estimate, that my entire driveway would be *milled*, or cut down (lowered) so that when the new asphalt was put down, my driveway would not be any higher (a concern for me, hoping not to add issues for me when mowing). Now my driveway IS higher and I have to mow so that I do not cross the driveway while mowing or else the mower deck will bottom-out. I have to wait to see about the quality of the asphalt; it seems like it is dried out and needs a sealer. There is also a bit of a hump where there had been a repair joint, so I am guessing it will not be long before I have a crack there."

"The owner, Thomas Burke, was great to work with in all respects. To start with he specified concrete that was stronger than what I wanted and this really pleased me. It told me he was willing to go above and beyond my requirements or minimums. He started with grading and removing dirt so he could build a retaining wall to hold back the grade for a new driveway. The guy he sent out worked very hard and did a near perfect job on the new wall. Like any construction project there were a few unknowns but he worked around these problems. Then he poured the new garage addition slab and finished it for me. Unfortunately it started to rain just before the final finish hardened so they had to redo some areas. Didn't come out quite as good after the rain but very acceptable. Then they immediately poured the driveway slab. No new showers so this came out perfectly. The concrete company sent out the second truck too soon so there was not enough time between pours to really get set. I think this second pour therefore did not quite get the grade Tom wanted. The driveway slab was pitched to drain water to match an adjacent existing slab and this did not quite work out. I have a small area on the new drive slab that holds water after a rain. It was a tough job to slope it right and it is within a quarter inch of draining. Like I said they were still grading the driveway when the truck showed up and I really think this cause the slight glitch. I have some more work to do next summer and am really looking forward to having Tom back knowing I will get a good price, a good job, and quick service done right. I would highly recommend ACT Contracting to anyone. "

Think of the street as a way to capture all the elements on either side of the road, including the road—a street encompasses the homes or other buildings, the trees, and the road of a given area as defined by the beginning and end of the street on a map. A roadway, however, is the component of the street where cars travel.
Common alternatives to a gravel driveway include concrete, asphalt, brick, stone pavers, and permeable pavers. Concrete and asphalt are generally the most affordable options. However, concrete can be prone to cracking in cold climates, while asphalt may soften in areas with high heat and direct sun exposure. For enhanced curb appeal, brick, stone, and permeable pavers are popular choices, though their installation can be more expensive due to intricate designs. Stone pavers offer a natural look and are sometimes installed with gravel around them. Both permeable pavers and brick driveways provide excellent drainage, which helps prevent flooding and reduce water runoff.
The average cost to repair an asphalt driveway is around $2,459 to $2,500. However, prices can range from $100 for minor DIY crack filling to over $4,000 for more extensive professional work. Costs are often calculated per foot, with minor repairs costing $1 to $3 per linear foot and heavier damage like potholes, sinking, or crumbling costing $2 to $5 per linear foot. Patching smaller potholes can cost around $2 to $3 per square foot. The final price depends on the severity and extent of the damage, driveway design, local contractor rates, and whether sealing is included. For major repairs, it is recommended to hire a professional, and you may get a better deal by bundling repair and sealing services together.
You should not attempt to install your own driveway. Whether working with asphalt or pavement, this is a complicated project that requires special equipment. Talk to some nearby asphalt or paving professionals and discuss your particular needs—it’s a good idea to get a few quotes and look at the company’s past work.
