"We like trees. When we moved to Hillsborough recently we loved our new house but unlike most houses in the neighborhood, the lot had no trees or shrubery except around the foundation. Alan Artz at Lemonade Landscaping assisted us in choosing two 14 foot maples, a crape myrtle, three boxwoods, and three large hollies for the front yard and a privacy screen. Throughout the process, he communicated and updated us regarding the plants and the timeline. The quality of all the trees was excellent, as . The planting process was uneventful and he took great care to avoid damage to existing lawn and other plants and to clean up afterwards. The price was competitive with other estimates. No stress and no mess! We have additional landscaping ideas and goals for our property and Alan at Lemonade Landscaping will be our go-to contractor. We recommend him with no reservations but lots of enthusiasm!"

"I can’t say enough good things about Nicolas. He provides superior craftsmanship with outstanding professionalism. I am a repeat customer. Seven years ago he completed a driveway regrading and installed a brick walkway. When my front walkway and two sets of brick stairs needed a complete overhaul I was thrilled to discover he was still around and working in the Raleigh area. The work was completed promptly and looks amazing. I would strongly recommend him without hesitation."

"I hired JF Asphalt (Juan Peron) to dig out roots and patch my asphalt driveway, crack fill and seal coat my whole driveway. They did the job in two days and I highly recommend them. Excellent quality work at a fair price. And Juan is great at communications. The driveway looks great and I would definitely hire them again!"

Asphalt Driveways FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The choice between asphalt and concrete depends on your priorities, budget, and climate.

Concrete is generally more durable, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep, and offers more customization options like staining and stamping, which can add more to a home's value. However, it is more expensive upfront and can be prone to cracking in cold climates where water can freeze and expand.

Asphalt is typically cheaper and quicker to install and is easier to repair. It performs better in colder climates. However, it requires more maintenance, including regular resealing, has a shorter lifespan, and can get hot and sticky in intense sunlight.

Ultimately, if durability and long-term value are key, concrete is often the better choice. If upfront cost and performance in cold weather are more important, asphalt may be preferable.

Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.

This creates a risk for your driveway to fail after asphalt curing because it doesn't have a lasting bond with the surface. In order to get asphalt to perform as intended, it's necessary to prepare the dirt surface correctly first. The loose soil base under the new driveway must be compacted until it is stable enough to support the weight of the asphalt.

Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.
