"This job could not have gone any better! After requesting a few quotes via Angie's list, Richard got back to me within 24 hours to inquire about the job. Turns out he was doing a few driveways in my development the next day and said he would stop by and have a look at my driveway. After a brief chat about options for the driveway, he gave me the price (very reasonable) and said he would be back later in the morning to perform the work. Richard and his team showed up as scheduled, sealed the driveway (looks awesome) and they were on their way! This may have been the most economical, highest quality, lowest stress work I have ever had on our house! Highest rating for all aspects of the service for sure."

"Ryan from united paving did a superb job paving my driveway. He made sure there was a level transfer from the garage to the driveway so my wife could use her wheelchair with no bumps. Definitely would recommend."

"- Ed Sage provided estimate the Tues after the Irene tropical storm weekend. We had made the appointment 2 wks prior and as busy as they were he still kept the appointment. He was extremely knowledgeable and provided recommendation not to do some things I was looking at that made perfect sense...although he could have just included in the estimate and provided me now advice. At the time he said it would be 1-2 wks before they could schedule the job due to large amount work in their queue
- While at my house I asked numerous additional questions and recommendations concerning some lawn overseeding and sod work. Ed answered all my questions and provided me the steps to take if I did it myself. He also offered to provide me the sod by ordering some extra for another job he had.
- I accepted the bid two days later and they told me they would call once they had scheduled the job to confirm it was ok for me. I also requested the sod he had offered to get and deliver for me at cost.
- They delivered the sod (30 roles) a couple of days later
- They showed up on the scheduled date first thing in morning and were on site until 6pm
- They did everything included in estimate and also trimmed a large holly tree and picked up a large brush pile I had that were not in the estimate. They did this at no additional charge
- They thoroughly cleaned up the yard, driveway, sidewalk and street
- I was very satisfied with the work they did and professionalism of the crew
- Ed was very helpful and direct in all his communications with me
- I would highly recommend Sage and actually contacted them a couple of weeks later to due some additional landscaping work for me

"Called to get an estimate for a new driveway. Sonny had plenty of information on the job I needed done and about the company and their experience. The team that replaced my driveway did a great job very professional and great value. Would definitely recommend giving them a call for driveway work."

"I hired Uprise to repair my pavers on the driveway and I was pleased with the work, professionalism and honesty. I ended up using them for my 20x40 deck replacement and it was just as great as the first experience. We used trex boards, they were open to ideas and listened to our suggestions and they explained everything in detail."

"I hired Thiago and company to fix pavers on both driveway and patio, the job went very well, took the time to remove, replace bedding and put back the pavers in a professional way, without the need to buy more pavers which are very hard to find as they are old. Also, laying down Belgium block in front-walkway was nice and looked awesome. What surprised me Is the after service, when I called Thiago to report a small issue due to the heavy rain we had right after they finish the job, he sent in his crew and took care of it in the same day I called. He called before and after his guys showed up to fix the issue. All in all it was a very pleasant experience I got my job done on time and looks amazing. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Honestly I have never dealt with a contractor that is so honest and caring like Thiago!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

If you notice minor cosmetic problems with your driveway, you should seal it. Look out for cracks and holes on the surface, faded asphalt or concrete, and stains from oil and other chemicals. Replacing your driveway may be necessary if you’re dealing with significant problems—¼-inch cracks, large potholes, and puddles from drainage issues. The cost to install an asphalt driveway typically ranges between $4,200 and $9,000, significantly more than resealing. Consider talking to a professional to discuss whether resurfacing your driveway—a midway project between resealing and replacing—is a better option for you.

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.

If your driveway is cracked, you can repave it with a process called asphalt overlay. Overlay is more cost-effective than a full replacement but is better suited for minor cracks and issues. If you have major cracks or other problems like water pooling, asphalt overlay isn’t your best bet. Plus, paving over a cracked driveway only extends the lifetime by about 10 years, whereas replacing it would start the clock over completely to give you up to 30 years.
