"From the quote process to the completion of my driveway install today, Chris and Seal King Paving were amazing. I got about 6 quotes, and Seal Kings was the best, but what sold me on them was the things Chris pointed out that other companies did not inform me about. The crew showed up early today and even though the driveway was long and on a hill, they finished quickly, and cleaned up everything. The entire crew worked efficiently and had great attitudes. I highly recommend Seal King if you need a new driveway! My driveway looks amazing!"

"I have hired Landscape Impressions (3 Howard Ct, Goshen, NY 10924, tel: 845- 351-3454) to change my front of the house entry and little garden with new masonry and new garden. Mr. Brian Mitchell, the owner and his crew (Leo, Jose, Ricardo, Rudy) are highly trained professionals and great people to do business with. Attention to all details, to all my feisty tastes, changes, ideas. Answers to all my questions, great verbal, e-mail and texting communications with all required pictures. Very good pricing, accurate, no surprises. They sent all electric, gas, water/sewer companies to mark the entire area in preparation for work. They removed old pond, waterfall, replaced water piping with new one, hidden under concrete. All cleaning after each day of work. They have all the machines and tools needed for masonry, granite, trees, flowers, grass, etc. I had a wonderful experience and can't wait to continue working with this crew for the back of my house, driveway, etc. Didn't stop to what was written in contract, added little details with pleasure, no overcharge. I highly commend and recommend to everybody. Thank you so much, we're so happy with the new look."

Customers say: Quick response

"As a former home improvement contractor with "15" years of experience, I always told my customers the best way to choose a contractor was by "word of mouth".  Fast forward to the current time-frame, and I have become a fan of Angie's List, since essentially it is a storehouse of customers who have had experiences with the various contractors available.  Since I have the skills necessary to pretty much solve all my own construction problems, I am reluctant to "pay" someone else to handle them.  However, I also realize that sometimes time and circumstance interfere with timely completion of various projects.  Mike Sheehan, the owner of MFS Masonry, answered my query in short order, and visited my home within a mutually convenient time period.  Affable, witty, friendly, and very knowledgeable, Mike surveyed the area, took some quick but accurate measurements, and he wrote me a quote before he left.  I telephoned him at least two more times over the next several days with some other questions, and he answered directly and honestly.  After some brief delays due to the weather, Mike's crew arrived on Thursday, May 8, and raised the old pavers, excavated the underlayment, removed the railroad ties, and demolished the front steps, after verbally insuring  that we had other access to the house. The "4" guys worked a total of "12" hours each, efficiently moving materials without disturbing/damaging the surrounding environs.  During this time Mike was not present onsite for the whole time period, but rather, trusting his able-bodied workers, informed my wife that he would be visiting with other potential customers and provided her with his cell-phone number in case there were any issues.  He returned frequently during the day, both inspecting the site, and conferring with my wife to see once again if there were any concerns.  Friday, May 9 was a carbon-copy of Thursday, but this time the installation of the new pavers was completed, and with adequate pitch to insure proper drainage into an edge-drain installed between the pool deck and the actual patio.  "One" man constructed the entire front steps on his own, insuring that it was both level and square....believe me, I checked!  Rainfall interrupted the last step of the process which was to sweep polymeric sand to lock the patio pavers in place, but Mike's guys returned on Monday, May 12 to complete the job!  Their workmanship is superior, their attitude was professional, friendly and helpful, and the job was completed in a record "2" days, if you discount the weather delay.  The true test of course, is how will wifey like it...because as the saying goes..."Happy Wife, Happy Life!"  Wifey loves it!  Done....

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

When hiring an asphalt paving contractor to install your driveway, ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective driveway contractor:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • Do you use subcontractors on your projects?

  • Do you clean up after the job is done?

  • Who is responsible for any damage to lawn or landscaping?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?

When comparing installation costs, asphalt is often less expensive upfront than concrete. Asphalt prices typically range from $7 to $15 per square foot, while concrete can range from $3 to $18 per square foot. However, long-term costs should also be considered. Concrete driveways generally last longer (up to twice as long) and require less maintenance, which can make them more affordable over their lifespan. While asphalt has a lower installation cost and is easier to repair, it requires more frequent maintenance, such as sealing, which can add up over time. Therefore, while concrete is more expensive initially, its durability may offset the cost in the long run.

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.

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.

While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues.
