"We had a driveway poured just before winter of 2023. The driveway was approximately 12’ x 60’. We were given a free estimate. The project was scheduled to take 4 days. The project was right on schedule. Just like clockwork. Each team that showed up for their portion of the project were all professional concentrating on the task at hand. My wife & I were very satisfied with the driveway. Sue & Pete F."
"We needed a new driveway as our old one was chipped and cracked in so many places and water was seeping into our basement after each heavy rainstorm. Crosstown Concrete came out and dug up our old cement driveway and poured a new one with new steps for our side entrance. We were so impressed by the knowledge, professionalism and courtesy of Greg's entire team. They were AMAZING! They worked tirelessly for days in the heat until the job was completed. His employees are the hardest working crew around! Our new driveway looks incredible and adds so much to our curb appeal. I will absolutely hire his team again for future work. I can't say enough great things about them!"
"My driveway was so broken up & water was running to my house & down basement wall. The replaced all concrete & got it away from my house & down toward the street. Alfredo went the extra mile for me. All the men were courteous, & knowledgeable. He cleaned up the areas afterward & made sure I was satisfied with the results. It will be so nice having a smooth driveway to my garage instead of endless broken concrete & holes. Plus, rain will no longer be running into my basement. He was more affordable than the other quotes I received & saved me so much money with great results. Thank you Alfredo Bravo."
"I recommend them very highly indeed. Very reasonable price, excellent work, prompt, and professional. We went from the worst driveway on the block to the best."
"Came out and gave me a free quote. Calvin kept in contact with me to arrange the best day to get the work done. They came and tore out the old driveway and paved the new driveway the same day. I couldn’t be happier with the final result."
"Chris was professional, friendly and easy to deal with. Even though he hadn't installed any permeable driveways, he had installed permeable patios and didn't see any problems with doing something similar with my small driveway. He even suggested some options for reusing the water. I would have accepted Chris' proposal but I found someone who installed permeable driveways using recycled material which is what I initially wanted and was having a hard time finding. "
"Job went extremely smoothly. Sue in the office was a great communicator and Shane and his crew did an outstanding job. I am very happy with the quality of materials used, time it took to complete the job and most importantly how well the driveway turned out. I will be calling them back for a patio next Spring!"
Sealing coat asphalt after 6-12 months and then every 2-3 years is recommended.
Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.
It’s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won’t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You’ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.
Many asphalt companies have experience with tar and chip paving, but not all. The process is unique enough—and not incredibly common enough—that you may have to look around for a tar and chip specialist. However, speaking with a driveway company is a great place to start, especially if they have experience with multiple materials.
It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting.
