"Replaces my old torn up asphalt driveway, with a driveway and walkway that is so smooth, drains off when bad weather hits. The edges are nice a crisp, the flow from garage to driveway matches up perfectly no seams. Ron was amazing from start to finish. When. They showed up it was right to work, they were amazing and even removed some stuff from my yard, repaired a few bigger rocks on my retaining wall in the yard for free. They were so amazing. I've already hired them again. Thanks Rob you have a great business. Highly recommeded"

"My wife and I were driving to town last Sunday afternoon and saw Tony's car pull in behind us;  we stopped and flagged him and his wife down, explaining that we needed work done on our driveway.  Tony went by our house that afternoon, measured everything and gave us an estimate / proposal on the spot.  We accepted and scheduled the work to begin the coming Wednesday.  On Tuesday, Tony and his foreman showed up to prepare our driveway - nice touch.  Tony and his team showed up the next morning at 9:00 am, let us know they were there, and began work -- they finished, as promised, at 3:30 pm.  The quality of their work is easy to classify, because it was outstanding.  Tony's been in this business for quite some time, and it shows -- he knows exactly how to get this type of work done at the highest level, on schedule and at the promised price.  The highest recommendation I could Tony and his team would be to answer the following question:  would I hire him again?  And the answer would be yes, definitely..."

"My husband and I were very impressed with AMJ Construction. Anthony and his helpers took their time with removing the old doors, replacing it with the new one. They were meticulous about the work being done. The helpers were respectful and answered any questions we may of had. By the end of the job the work area was immaculate. Anthony’s assistant Tracy at the office was patient and very pleasant to work with. We will definitely hire AMJ Construction again for another project."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

Driveway aprons typically range between four and seven inches thick, though your town's building codes will likely have specific requirements. Additionally, you may need to add a layer of permeable aggregate in the excavation below your paved apron to ensure proper stormwater drainage.

The decision to repair or replace your driveway depends on the extent of the damage. If your driveway has a few small cracks, a simple repair will do the trick. If you see larger cracks and potholes, it may be time to consider resurfacing or replacement. Resurfacing is a great option if more than 25% of the surface is damaged, but if the damage is extensive—deep cracks or significant sinking—it’s best to replace the driveway entirely. A new driveway, with proper care, can last decades while patching or resurfacing might only hold up for a few years before needing more attention.

You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway. 

To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.

Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.
