Very neat job, good cleanup and no paving spilled over onto adjacent lawn, sidewalks or garage concrete floor. No damage to irrigation heads located very close to the driveway (it probably didn't hurt that I flagged those heads before demo and installation). The result is a very nice, appropriately graded driveway with a crack and pothole-free surface.

They sent someone out and said they would be back to repair. As of this date nothing has been repaired. I have since had my driveway resurfaced as I was tired of looking at the damage. (Although you can still see the damage) They came back to seed, only in some areas to see how it reacted. I paid to have my entire lawn seeded, not just certain areas. The first time they seeded, it was all over everywhere, in the rock landscaping is where the most grass grew. I again alerted them of the situation and they assured me they would send someone out to take care of the issue. On June 12, I came home to a bill in the door. I called them to ask what it was about...they stated it was for their services. The only services I had requested were the ones I had previously paid for, which to this date has still not been received. I have called back several times, only to be told that my account has been closed, that the owner would call me to discuss.

That of course didn't work because it was in the concrete. A year later I still have those spots but they are fading. there were some corners that wasn't finished well. I felt they were just sloppy about it because the forms wasn't put down properly. If you didn't live here you wouldn't know it. The owners young sone came out and did some of the work to tear out the old concrete. He drove a bobcat and broke tile in the front because he ran into a wall. He was in the front yard doing wheelies. They said they would fix that but they never did. I was left with these big gauges in my front yard. The grass is not growing back like it did. They didn't monitor him to carefully. The driveway went level and had a break and then went down. I had some trouble with water accumulating. They said the driveway should just be one angle all the way to the street. they went down to the street and cut out a curb that was there and it made the base four or five inches lower then before. they put the driveway in and it was six to eight inches of yard level. That is when they had graded it and came back the next day to lay concrete. that is when I had them change the contour. he said you should have told us before the workers left but I didn't see it. they came back and put in ten tons of stone to raise it. So I have a stone thick driveway but he charged me $300.00 more to do that.

Gravel Driveway Repair questions, answered by experts
When asphalt cures, it typically changes from a very dark black hue to a lighter, more matte gray color. Cured asphalt also won’t be tacky or sticky to the touch or emit any odors from the asphalt mix. Additionally, the surface of fully cured asphalt won’t deform under any pressure.
Because it’s faster and uses less materials and energy, resurfacing a driveway is more eco-friendly than replacing it. However, that doesn’t mean it’s always the best option. When deciding between driveway resurfacing vs. replacing, it’s important to consider the age of your driveway and the level of damage. In some cases, replacing it may be a better choice for your budget.
Asphalt is not the same thing as blacktop. Blacktop is a type of asphalt, but contains less bitumen, making it less durable than asphalt. Asphalt is a better option for major highways, streets, and driveways, while blacktop is more suitable to playgrounds.
Small cracks can be DIY patched, but professional services ensure durable, smooth surfaces and prevent further deterioration.
Instead of a set number of types, asphalt comes in variations designed for different needs. Some are categorized by temperature—hot mix, warm mix, and cold mix. Others are sorted by composition, like dense-graded, gap-graded (such as Stone Matrix Asphalt), porous, and mastic asphalt. There are also modified versions with added compounds like polymers, rubber, or emulsions. Instead of focusing on a number, it may be more useful to understand how contractors customize asphalt for durability, climate, and traffic conditions.
