"Satisfied to the utmost. Ronnie was very knowledgeable, courteous and professional. He and his crew took the time to explain everything that was being done and completed the job in the time he (Ronnie) stated. I was truly impressed with the quality of work done for the price I paid. My next door neighbor came over and surveyed the new/widened driveway and is now making plans to have his driveway redone by PAVE ALL. Again Ronnie and his Crew did an outstanding job and I will not hesitate to recommend them and PAVE ALL. Norman S."

"Fantastic! I've been in construction (large projects, i.e., 5 million to 300 million plus) for over 30 yrs. I wanted to gift my oldest grand daughter a parking slab (approx 750 sq ft) at her home and reached out to Angi's list for contractors willing to do smaller jobs. J&A was one of 6 leads they sent me and by far the best of the lot. They showed up on time to do their estimate, rather than asking to reschedule an appt they scheduled, or not showing up at all. They had an estimate in my hands the same day, rather than 2 days later. More importantly, their estimate was turn key. Here's what it will cost and here’s what that will get you. Unlike the overinflated checklist I received from another contractor where everything was additional and would have cost $2,100.00 more than J&A's bid. The crew showed up on the day and time they said they would and the job was completed faster than they they thought. 2.5 vs 3 days from grassy area to cleared, formed, poured and finished. They were polite, respectful of the rest of the property (no ruts or truck tire tracks in the lawn), and cleaned up after themselves as they went. For a small Contractor they were Impressively Professional. If we need more work they will get the call and I highly recommend them!"

"Good job by Misael and his team. They were behind 2 hours due to concrete delivery delays beyond their control. They stayed late >6 PM to finish. Honored our military service. Accommodated a couple of special twists that arose reference low temperatures and external drain well install not part of the original plan. Misael helped reset a basketball goal that became unstable when the old concrete was removed. Construction debris removed from the premises."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.

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.

A solid driveway starts with the right asphalt mix, and for most homes, dense-graded hot mix asphalt (HMA) is the most recommended. It’s both durable and flexible, making it a reliable choice for residential use. A properly compacted 2-3 inch layer on a well-prepared crushed stone base will hold up for years. In areas with harsh winters or scorching summers, a slightly modified mix can help prevent cracking and rutting. No matter the climate, quality installation is just as important as the material itself, so hiring an experienced contractor ensures a smooth, long-lasting driveway built to last.

There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.

Concrete is typically the best material for a driveway if you’re looking for longevity, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance. But, it’s not ideal for areas with annual freeze-frost cycles, nor is it the most attractive option—although you can get it stamped or painted. If your location is consistently below freezing, asphalt may be a better choice.
