"Dakota and his team were professional, polite, did a great job in prepping and coating the driveway. I was really impressed and exceeded my expectations. Would hire again. Thank you team!"
"We also hired Jose Landscaping for roofing as well as some landscaping. Not all at once but throughout time after the purchase of my home. They did great quality landscaping work. I will continue to use Jose Landscaping to improve my house so we can make it a HOME."
"My driveway has a flat section at the top and a steep narrow section going to the road. The flat part came out very well and is a big improvement. Aaron Williams was upfront about the possibility that the steep section would be difficult to work with. The chip seal did not take very well and the loose gravel is a problem. We ended up sweeping the loose gravel to the side in order not to slip when driving. It looks much better than it did but this was not the result we had hoped for. My driveway is 40 years old which is part of the problem."
"I had some very specific requirements for my 12'x23'x11' awning. I also had to postpone the project 2 months. But, Lucio and crew built the awning to my requirements exactly. As soon as material was available, they were out on the job and finished in a day. It even rained a little on them, but they got it done. Will be giving them a call when I'm ready to do the next awning."
"After four interviews, Hill Country Road Paving was the only one that included fixing some weak spots on my asphalt driveways. (14,500 sq ft in total). They did a 2 course chip seal in 6 hours with the edge asphalt remediation. Their crew was respectful to the extent that my neighbor told me she was impressed by their assurance that they wouldn't block her driveway during the effort. Not only did they do great work expeditiously but, at a cost less than the other three contractors. I bonus them $100 per worker on top of their charge. I would definitely use them again."
The material that’s best for your private road depends on your property, the climate in your area, and your personal preferences. Gravel is an affordable option, but some homeowners don’t like how it looks. It can be a pain to remove snow from, and it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or concrete. However, while these other options require less maintenance and make snow removal a breeze, they’re more expensive and will need repairs from time to time. Ultimately, you’ll have to choose the road material that suits you and your property best.
Regular cleaning, sealing, and timely repair of cracks help maintain its condition.
While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues.
There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.
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.
