"It was great working with this company. They tore out the paved portion of the driveway and graded the unpaved portion and then paved over everything.The communication was great. they were right in line with their estimate and they finished the job on time. They also did an amazing job putting in a new culvert with skirts."

"Lyle was great to work with and imagined the project exactly as it turned out. The project was complicated due to tight access and existing structures, a large hill and required a structural engineering plan. The crew led by Vidal managed it perfectly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. They were respectful, listened, and provided extra service when asked and stayed within the timeline as planned."

"I had been looking for someone to install a driveway for me. I purchased my home in December, 2012 and after two winters removing snow from a gravel driveway, I wanted to have it paved. I obtained two concrete bids and wanted to get asphalt bids to compare. Minnesota Blacktopping was the fifth asphalt company I'd contacted for a bid - and the first one to respond.
After getting a verbal commitment to provide a bid, it required a second call to have them show up and take measurements. While out taking measurements I was given a description of the work that would be done and was told they had other projects that would be done in the area and they'd group them together and do them all at the same time. I was given an estimate as to when that would occur if I wanted to move forward after receiving the quote.
After being told I'd get a written quote, it took an e-mail reminder to have the quote appear in my mailbox. The proposal came with a signature line that also said and quot;acceptance,and quot; so I e-mailed a signed scanned copy and confirmed I wanted to move forward. No down payment was requested.
The next contact I received was a phone call saying they were on the way to my home to do the preparation work for the driveway, would be installing the driveway the next day, and wanted to know if I could meet them when they arrived. Luckily my wife was off that day and was able to meet them when they arrived.
I was able to take the next day off work to be there when they did the installation. They showed up at 7 a.m. and were done by 9:00 a.m. They did an excellent job. The workers were professional and accommodating. I didn't realize they were going to show up so early and hadn't had a chance to move my cars to the road yet - but they made room for me to do that and waited until I was done.
The driveway was exactly what I wanted and it looks fantastic. We didn't drive on it for three days and have had no problems. The driveway was shaped to run rainwater to the low point of my lot and works perfectly. The finish work where the driveway meets the concrete sidewalks and garage openings was done with great care and looks and feels great. The quality of materials and workmanship were excellent. I would highly recommend Minnesota Blacktopping and would not hesitate to use them again.
I ended up with a great driveway from a company I would call first for any future work. The issues I had with communication and expectation setting were minor and did not affect the quality of the end product, but did affect the ratings I gave for responsiveness and professionalism.

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.

While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues. 

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.

After removing existing moss, consider using paver blocking sand to fill the joints. This specialty material hardens once placed and serves as an effective barrier against moss and weeds. From there on, regularly clean your pavers and try to keep them dry. You can also seal your paver as a semi-permanent solution — just make sure you reseal every 3 to 5 years.

Cobblestone driveways can take a major hit on anyone's bank account, begging the question of whether it's worth it to build a cobblestone driveway. Some homeowners might prefer more affordable driveway materials like concrete or pavers, which can give a similar appearance to cobblestone without the high price tag.

Paving your driveway costs between $2,500 and $6,600, to put that in perspective. But for others, there’s nothing quite like the timeless look of cobblestone driveways.
