"Don was very professional. He and the workers showed up when they said they would and our driveway looks great. The only issue we had is that a piece of their equipment took off a piece of our siding. However, Don was incredibly professional about everything. They had gone to Home Depot, and had it fixed and painted by the end of the day. Honestly, they did a great job and had he not told me, I would have never even noticed there was an issue with the siding. We would definitely hire Don again. He made sure we he didn't rip up the whole driveway. He only ripped up areas of our asphalt that needed to be replaced, where as other companies were quoting ripping up the entire driveway. This helped keep the cost down. They are professional and did a great job for a competitive price. We would highly recommend them."
"They were in the neighborhood doing another job and told me they could pave the gravel driveway at one of my rental properties. I had gotten prices a few years ago, and even given the time difference, they beat the price by almost $1,000. They did a good job prepping the area and put in an asphalt driveway the same day."
"Lou and his crew did an excellent job. Removed concrete walkway, cleaned entire area, and had new concrete delivered and poured the next day. So many compliments received from neighbors and customers of my wife’s business. I highly recommend Lou Fani and his company."
"We had an asphalt driveway about 43 years old. Brandon was wonderful I knew from the moment I met him that he had integrity he was very knowledgeable and professional. The driveway had tons of old asphalt to be removed, the scope of the work was beyond what we could see. Brandon kept in touch with me through the weather delays we had in May 2025. My driveway is beautiful; I would give Brandon Hoffman & his team the highest rate possible. Thank you, Brandon"
"John Sr. met with us on a Friday. He gave us information on a Sherwin Williams product that is a painted stain. There was a huge selection of colors and we picked one to match. He gave us an estimate on the painting project and a driveway sealant project. The estimate was an extremely good deal for the work. We called a few hours later to confirm we wanted them to do the work. John and his son Johnny came on Tuesday. His son was just as polite and courteous as his Dad. The job was finished in one day. Their work was very professional and they made sure we were completely satisfied. We are very pleased with both the shed and the driveway. We would highly recommend this company."
Think of the street as a way to capture all the elements on either side of the road, including the road—a street encompasses the homes or other buildings, the trees, and the road of a given area as defined by the beginning and end of the street on a map. A roadway, however, is the component of the street where cars travel.
Three inches is a great thickness for a residential asphalt driveway that sees minimal to moderate traffic from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. However, a thicker driveway can better withstand the weight of a heavier vehicle, such as a trailer or a recreational vehicle. If you drive a heavy vehicle on a thin driveway, you risk cracking and damaging it.
The average cost to repair an asphalt driveway is around $2,459 to $2,500. However, prices can range from $100 for minor DIY crack filling to over $4,000 for more extensive professional work. Costs are often calculated per foot, with minor repairs costing $1 to $3 per linear foot and heavier damage like potholes, sinking, or crumbling costing $2 to $5 per linear foot. Patching smaller potholes can cost around $2 to $3 per square foot. The final price depends on the severity and extent of the damage, driveway design, local contractor rates, and whether sealing is included. For major repairs, it is recommended to hire a professional, and you may get a better deal by bundling repair and sealing services together.
At a depth of two inches, a ton of asphalt covers around 80 to 100 square feet. However, the thicker the asphalt, the less surface area it will cover. That’s why measuring correctly is essential when estimating asphalt needs and costs to ensure you get enough material to cover your entire driveway, patio, or other asphalt surface.
When hiring an asphalt paving contractor to install your driveway, ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective driveway contractor:

Do you clean up after the job is done?
Who is responsible for any damage to lawn or landscaping?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Do you give free estimates?
What is the timeline for completion?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three references?
Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
