"Charlie and his brother were very professional and efficient . They did a superior job at a great price. Instead of trying to up sell me on a driveway sealer Charlie informed me on how to properly let the driveway cure on its own. I added an additional section to the driveway to pave and they did it at a minimal charge. They took thier time and it shows."

"First contacted Mid-Ohio Asphalt in April, 2016. Got estimates from 2 other companies besides Mid-Ohio. The other 2 contractors wanted to replace the entire driveway to the tune of $10,000.00; Mid-Ohio stated a full replacement was not necessary. Instead, they removed deteriorated areas, ground down a 4'-6' width to a 2" depth, and hauled away all the debris. They then laid a leveling course of asphalt followed by an asphalt finish material. They graded the driveway perfectly so run-off is away from the house/garage. They also raised/relaid a service walk which runs alongside the driveway so it is level with the drive. The result is beautiful! And the company states the work will hold up for 20+ years, the same longevity as a brand new driveway. I waited over a year before writing my review to see how the driveway held up through the winter. I'm happy to report there were zero problems! My only complaints with regards to the service I received were that, after contracting with the company in May, the work was not performed until August, and communication was lacking at times. However, I was not particularly bothered by this. Bottom line: Mid-Ohio delivered a quality product at a great price. They treated me fairly and professionally and were cognizant of my budget."

"After several quotes and researching companies online, I chose to hire Eli and his crew for my driveway project, adding onto an existing driveway. Eli was easy to work with, responded to my calls promptly, and answered all my questions thoroughly. Pricing was competitive and job was completed the next day of hiring them. Driveway looks beautiful! Would recommend!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Paving is a part of hardscaping, so all paving is hardscaping, but not all hardscaping is paving. Paving involves laying down concrete or asphalt, while hardscaping can also include the use of paving stones, bricks, gravel, wood, and more. Hardscape features that involve paving are considered permanent and will increase your property taxes, while some other hardscaping features—like those involving bricks, gravel, and paving stones—will not affect property taxes. Paving also typically requires a permit, while hardscaping features considered temporary will not.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

While it may be less expensive initially to lay concrete vs. pavers, the long-term expenses that come with repairing concrete may prove to be less cost-friendly than simply replacing a few damaged pavers. On top of that, stamped concrete may only last for 25 years compared to pavers, which can last over 50 years.

Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.

Yes, a paved or repaved driveway can boost your home's value by increasing its curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space. A new driveway can add anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000 to a property's value. An old, crumbling driveway can be a red flag for potential buyers and inspectors.

The amount of value added depends on the materials used, the design, and local market conditions. Concrete is often cited as adding the most value due to its long lifespan, though asphalt may be more desirable in colder climates. The return on investment is greatest when replacing a driveway that is in poor condition; repaving a driveway that is already in good shape will not yield as significant an increase in value.
