"Responded quickly. Arrived on time for appt. He did brick paving and matched existing design. He made a safe and attractive walkway. He also created a concrete sidewalk area. He and his worker cleaned up after the work was done. In addition, Malik is a very pleasant and patient man. I will hire him again for future work."

"Responded quickly to initial request, performed on site inspection and provided clear written estimate. Was lowest bid of 3 bidders. Provided proof of insurance and DOT work permit promptly. Able to schedule work to allow ground floor business to continue to operate during sidewalk replacement. Work crew showed up on schedule and were professional. On site supervisor kept all parties informed of work progression. Work was completed on time and work was satisfactory. Have a new sidewalk that is the equal of, or better than, other buildings on the block. Overall process was painless. Very satisfied with the results."

"We hired Nicholas and Son for asphalt sealing and couldn?t be happier. Our driveway was in really rough shape, and we?d been getting sky high quotes elsewhere. Their pricing was fair and reasonable, and the work looks great. The crew showed up on time, explained what they?d do, worked efficiently, and kept the area neat. The sharp edges, even coverage, and clean finish really show they care about doing it right. We?d definitely hire them again."

"I had REEM construction come to my house and had them redo the entire front of my house. New front steps for my front door, along with paver flooring and my front lawn retaining wall on both sides of my door. They did an amazing job and I couldn?t be happier. Throughout the entire job I was given professional advice on brick and paver selection and layout, and help with getting some nice lights in. Can?t recommend them enough!"

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.

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.

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.

The material that’s best for your private road depends on your property, the climate in your area, and your personal preferences. Gravel is an affordable option, but some homeowners don’t like how it looks. It can be a pain to remove snow from, and it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or concrete. However, while these other options require less maintenance and make snow removal a breeze, they’re more expensive and will need repairs from time to time. Ultimately, you’ll have to choose the road material that suits you and your property best.

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.
