"“Exceptional!” This word summarizes the job that Thomas and Dustin’s Asphalt did from the very beginning to the very end of our driveway project. They were extremely professional, responsive and their work was of the highest quality. We had 2,100 feet (0.4 miles) of driveway installed that was ten feet wide. They sloped all of the ditches, graded and built up the driveway where necessary and then installed the new gravel driveway. Some other companies I had gotten bids from were going to just dump gravel, spread it, drive over it a few times and leave - at close to or even slightly higher cost than the exceptional work done by Thomas and Dustin’s Asphalt. Thomas and Dustin’s Asphalt brought in more rock and using a fifteen ton paver, compacted the gravel. They then used a 5000 pound roller to smooth all parts of the driveway. The project took the majority of four days and when the project was complete, they cleaned up everything, made sure there were no imperfections and then rolled out the entire driveway once again. I will not call anyone else in the future other than Thomas and Dustin’s Asphalt for paving or driveway maintenance needs. I highly recommend that you call Thomas and Dustin’s Asphalt also."

Asphalt Driveways FAQs, answered by experts

Recycled asphalt is not better than gravel, but can be a good alternative. It is inexpensive, but not as low-cost as gravel, and doesn’t tend to last as long. Recycled asphalt isn’t as dusty as gravel and is more environmentally friendly. The black look can be something that homeowners prefer. No matter what, ensure you choose an experienced recycled asphalt contractor. 

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.

To maintain their strength, asphalt driveways and parking lots need to be sealcoated once every two to five years. You may also need to reapply paint striping every few years as it fades to ensure drivers can safely navigate the parking lot.

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.

DIY is not recommended due to equipment and expertise requirements. Professional services ensure durability and proper grading.
