"They were very prompt and were very detailed about the project and all the specifics. They had a very well mannered crew they showed up redone my entire parking lot and it looks absolutely beautiful. The drainage is on point. It looks as if they were never there. they’re cleanup. Crew was amazing and the great thing is they had a lot of other work going on and they squeezed my 15,000 square-foot job in like it was nothing and took really good care of me. I would highly recommend them any day of the week."

"We hired J & H Mid Mo Concrete after shopping around for a reputable company that offered a price we budgeted for. Jonny was our point of contact and he was terrific. He was o. Time and accessible whenever we needed him. He was also very clear with his plan and kept our vision as his own. We appreciate the work his team did and most of all, we love the new driveway and would most definitely hire him. I recommend J & H and wouldn’t hesitate (and haven’t! ) to recommend them to friends and family. Thank you so much for exceeding our expectations!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

To ensure you hire a reliable and experienced paving company, you should start by finding companies in your area that have at least five to ten years of experience working in your neighborhood. Next, rule out companies with poor reviews online or a series of complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Since driveways affect your curb appeal, you should also ask each company for references and pictures of recent work to make sure the work the company does is professional and high quality. Finally, check that the company is licensed and insured.

Several materials are suitable for steep driveways. Gravel and crushed stone are affordable options that provide good traction. Permeable pavers—such as plastic, rubber, or concrete—filled with gravel or crushed stones are also excellent, as they allow water to drain without causing erosion and perform well in ice and snow. Another option is resin, which can be coated with an anti-slip finish and helps prevent puddles. For added stability, you can install a retaining wall to prevent pavers and gravel from shifting over time.

Regular sealing, crack filling, and professional inspections help extend pavement lifespan and prevent costly repairs.
