"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

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.

If you’re looking for a similar, eco-friendly driveway material, you might consider one of these options:

  • Permeable pavement: This material is sometimes called “pervious” or “porous” pavement; it allows stormwater to drain into the subbase, eliminating storm drain costs. 

  • Gravel: Consider paving your driveway with locally sourced gravel. By sourcing from a nearby source, your money won’t fund international shipping and will be invested back into your local community.

  • Natural stone pavers: Because natural stone pavers are made from organically-produced stone, there’s no new manufacturing required, limiting the environmental impact. In addition, water easily flows and drains through the gaps in the pavers.

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.

Asphalt driveways last anywhere from 15 to 30 years, but if you don’t stay on top of repairs, you may find yourself spending extra to replace your driveway before its typical lifespan. Stay on top of repairing cracks and potholes by routinely inspecting your driveway once or twice a year. It’s a good idea to pressure wash your asphalt driveway at least once a year to keep it clean. Apply a sealer every one to five years, based on your climate.

The average cost of 1,500 square feet of asphalt ranges from about $10,500 to $22,500, depending on location, thickness, base material, and how accessible the job site is to crews and equipment. Keep in mind that your asphalt material cost may vary depending on its type, ranging from porous asphalt to heated blacktop. Standard asphalt costs $7 to $13 per square foot.
