"Excellent communication and customer service, even got the quote to us quickly. They showed up when they said they would and did a great job. Many contractors come for a consultation and never call back or accept the job and don't show up because we've had smaller jobs. This was a larger job, but still small compared to some, but we were treated fairly and with respect. He extended a driveway, graded for water issues in several places around the house, including digging a ditch for the driveway, installing two underground drain pipes, and one box drain. The result is that our house is vastly improved and dry. Thank you!"

"Lee is an intelligent woman who is a hard worker. She is prompt, efficient, and willing to do major house cleaning and organization. I feel at ease with leaving her in the house and I know that I can leave an instruction manual out for direction with appliances and she will use it. She is worth her fee."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

The driveway apron is a technical term referring to where a private driveway meets the public street. If there is a sidewalk in front of the house, the driveway apron is typically on the opposite side of the public sidewalk from the driveway itself.

By grading and compacting the base soil, ensuring proper drainage and stability.

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.

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.
