"Chris came out and we discussed my landscaping needs for my new home.  I tried to convey my vision to Chris, I have a nice rustic style farmhouse that I just had built.  I also told him this wasn't the country club and I needed this work broken into pieces and would be looking to do basic landscaping, not grass that looks like carpet and more of a rustic type that would suit a farmhouse design like I have.  He started pushing this concrete bed borders, and I didn't like the look.  Not to mention, I'm sure it was quite expensive.  I tried to explain again, this wasn't a house in a subdivision in the city, it's a rural property and that would just look out of place.  One of the first things needed was some additional gravel on my parking area and making a turnaround and sidewalk to my back deck.  Chris quoted me $3800 to deliver and spread two truckloads of gravel.  That is a outrageous price!  I called and had a gravel company quote me a price and called a back hoe operator to get a price for spreading the gravel. The company's I contacted quoted me $700 a truck load for the material and $350 for the spreading.  Chris quoted double what the cost was for me to contract it myself.  I never heard back from him on any quote for the beds and planting.  Just as well, his prices were way out of line.  I think he saw my house and decided he could make a months salary off me.  I was very disappointed, he seemed like a nice guy.  I've since hired a part time man who is doing a fine job as I direct him.

And from the contractor's response, he should have let me know he didn't want to do a job on a rural property and that would have been fine.  My driveway is not unusual for a rural farm property.  The reason it was "swampy" was I had just moved in, construction trucks had been keeping it plowed up and we just were drying out from the worst rain season in 100 years in this area.  And now that the rain has dried out and the driveway has settled, anyone can get into my driveway with ANY kind of car or truck.  Funny thing, I had many dump trucks in spreading gravel, delivery trucks, and moving trucks and no one got stuck.  And I've never seen any quote from him other than a overpriced quote trying to make a killing off a small job.   I'm sure he didn't waste much of his time, I'm sure he wasted less of his than I did of mine."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

When comparing installation costs, asphalt is often less expensive upfront than concrete. Asphalt prices typically range from $7 to $15 per square foot, while concrete can range from $3 to $18 per square foot. However, long-term costs should also be considered. Concrete driveways generally last longer (up to twice as long) and require less maintenance, which can make them more affordable over their lifespan. While asphalt has a lower installation cost and is easier to repair, it requires more frequent maintenance, such as sealing, which can add up over time. Therefore, while concrete is more expensive initially, its durability may offset the cost in the long run.

Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.

Concrete is typically the best material for a driveway if you’re looking for longevity, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance. But, it’s not ideal for areas with annual freeze-frost cycles, nor is it the most attractive option—although you can get it stamped or painted. If your location is consistently below freezing, asphalt may be a better choice.

It’s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won’t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You’ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.
