"They were amazing. Their quote was by far the lowest even though the specifications for gravel and asphalt were the same as the more expensive companies. They arrived exactly on time with a large crew, big trucks and machinery and the prepwork was done very quickly and professionally. This happened again on the asphalt installation day. Lots of trucks, an asphalt laying machine just like the ones the highway department uses, only smaller, and a steam roller. Again, very professional; everyone knew their job and they worked well as a team. They also went out of their way to do things just the way we asked. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and the driveway looks perfect."

"Buermanns did an awesome job on our 2000 sq ft concrete pour. Concrete was poured smooth as per our request inside of the shed. Work was done on schedule. It’s been 1 year and no cracks. Very happy with the quality of work. Would definitely hire again."

"They did a super job. Driveway looks excellent with the new crushed granite. I was having run off issues on 2 sides of my house. After being leveled that problem is gone. Landscape rock next to retaining wall gives a nice facelift.

"It turned out the work I needed have done would have been more expensive than what my regular guy would have charged. I spoke with Joy Beckman in their offices through email, she very nice and easy to work with. Scheduling also wasn't going to work. My sprinkler guys is getting closer to retirement and I will most likely use this company when that time comes."

"Other than a slight delay in the starting date, and of course a late spring, it went wonderful. The 3 guys were great to work with as was Marlin. They worked hard and efficiently. Everything looks wonderful."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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. 

At a depth of two inches, a ton of asphalt covers around 80 to 100 square feet. However, the thicker the asphalt, the less surface area it will cover. That’s why measuring correctly is essential when estimating asphalt needs and costs to ensure you get enough material to cover your entire driveway, patio, or other asphalt surface.

Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can cause asphalt to crack, including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.

While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you’re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location.

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.
