"David did an excellent job. He has maintained our long gravel driveway and also mowed the driveway and pastor and removed trees on the property. He is very professional and always finishes the job on schedule and budget. We highly recommend David and will continue to use his services to maintain our driveway and property."

"Zack, the owner, and his crews are incredible! I have a very steep driveway and hillside at the front of my WNC mountain home. They repaired a badly damaged wood retaining wall then properly excavated, provided drainage, backfilled and secured new posts with deadman anchoring. This is my third project using ZR Landscaping. They are always on time, professional, courteous, hard working, reliable and provide a great project outcome at a fair price. I highly recommend ZR Landscaping!"

"Pat, Jim, and his team were a pleasure to work with. Jim designed our space and designed it with all of the features we wanted. Each work day, they arrived to the job site on time and worked **** ** our job. After the job was completed, Jim came by our home to check the patio after it had rained to make sure there weren't any spots that needed to be fixed. We never had any issues during the construction and would strongly recommend them to everyone. They stand behind their work and do a great job."

"We recently purchased a home on lake lure and knew substantial repairs were needed on the walkway down to the dock and on the deck above the boathouse. After several failed attempts to get a contractor, we received a call from Jesse Summerlin. He quickly came to our home and did a thorough evaluation of our walkway and deck. Jesse then reviewed what he found and made his recommendations. He was able to quickly get our project scheduled and started. A few adjustments had to be made but that is to be expected with the size of the project. All extra work was reviewed with us before proceeding. The work was done to a very high level and in a timely manner, even with many rainy days. We would highly recommend Summerlin Exterior Solutions. Jesse was probably the best contractor I have dealt with. A"

"I contacted Angie’s list on a Saturday and Sunday morning he arrived with his crew. He designed a waterfall and pond in my yard that desperately needed help. The price was reasonable and included all the supplies. He was very friendly and I am VERY pleased with the outcome. Thanks so much! I highly recommend and would hire him again for landscaping."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

New asphalt goes through two stages: drying and curing. Drying typically takes 24 to 72 hours, after which the surface is solid enough for light use like walking or careful driving. While you may be able to park on it after 72 hours, the surface is still soft and should be treated gently. Full curing is a much longer process, taking anywhere from 30 days to a full year for the asphalt to reach maximum strength. During this extended curing period, the asphalt is susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles, sharp objects, and high temperatures. Factors like weather, the specific asphalt mix, and application thickness all influence drying and curing times. For the most accurate timeline and to ensure the longevity of your new asphalt, it is always best to consult with your installation contractor for their specific recommendations.

Think of the street as a way to capture all the elements on either side of the road, including the road—a street encompasses the homes or other buildings, the trees, and the road of a given area as defined by the beginning and end of the street on a map. A roadway, however, is the component of the street where cars travel.

Asphalt dries and cures best between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows moisture to evaporate quickly without causing the asphalt to cool too fast, which can negatively affect the drying process. However, keep in mind that other weather conditions can also affect curing and drying times, such as precipitation and humidity.

The three most common types of asphalt are hot asphalt, MC cold mix, and UPM asphalt. Hot asphalt is used most often for paving and patching roadways while it’s hot and workable. MC cold mix asphalt cures more slowly than hot asphalt, but it can be used for temporary patches and repairs in low-traffic areas. UPM is also used cold, but it can be used as a longer-term fix, usable in almost any conditions at almost any temperature.
