"I had Sunset Concrete replace an aging asphalt two-car driveway (and turn-around extension) with a new completely concrete driveway (and turn-around extension) and an additional sidewalk extension running the full length of the garage the driveway fed. There were several aspects of this job that I felt made it more demanding than is usual. But throughout and in the end, Sunset showed themselves to be reliable, efficient, and expert in their craft. In my case they achieve beautiful results while delivering absolute best value. Team leader Sylvan showed true concern for the needs and wishes of the customer (me), was always willing to listen, and conveyed a simple sense of honesty and fairness that left me with great peace of mind. In my opinion our job was significantly more challenging than is typical: I was concerned that the uneven lay of our land might require compromises in a achieving a smooth uniform single-piece lay of concrete: the land was slanted different ways in different places, wavy throughout, crossed a slanted public sidewalk that contained a (during snowfall) hazardous dip that the concrete is required (by our Borough) to align with edge-to-edge and continuously, and the region beside my garage (where the sidewalk was to go) was about a foot lower than the driveway proper. But the result of Sunset's work is to my mind a beautiful sculpture that amazingly addressed all these requirements in a smooth unbroken flow. Having dealt with other contractors before coming across Sunset, there is no question now that they'd be the first I turn to for any future concrete work, and would recommend the same to anyone."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

The driveway apron is a technical term referring to where a private driveway meets the public street. If there is a sidewalk in front of the house, the driveway apron is typically on the opposite side of the public sidewalk from the driveway itself.

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.

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.

Driveways should be sloped with a minimum 2% slope—anything lower will cause precipitation and runoff to collect. A 2% slope is the equivalent of a 2-foot rise over 100 feet. One quick way to check the integrity of your driveway’s slope: no more than four inches of water should collect on the surface longer than 15 minutes after rain.
