"Scott and crew did an excellent job on sealing our driveway by hand. Very communicative, friendly, and timely. The quote was the upper range of competition and they compromised with us. We chose them as they did two other driveways in the past month on our street and the driveways are excellent. Highly recommend."

"This is the first time i have had my driveway sealed by hand with squeegee and they did an amazing job. They cleaned it very well first and filled bigger cracks. Then put down the sealer by 5 gallon buckets and 2 men running squeegees. I t is 100 times better and thicker than spray wand sealing. i will have Magic Seal do it again in 3 years. Thank you!!!!!"

"Axel is a pro and was excellent to work with. He responded quickly to text messages and communicated well about the various details of the project. The cost of the project was fair and a better price than other companies quoted. The Castaneda team did an EXCELLENT job. The driveway looks great and they left the work area very clean. You can tell they take pride in their work. We are THRILLED with the way the driveway turned out. I would HIGHLY recommend their company and would definitely call them if I have other concrete projects in the future."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

This creates a risk for your driveway to fail after asphalt curing because it doesn't have a lasting bond with the surface. In order to get asphalt to perform as intended, it's necessary to prepare the dirt surface correctly first. The loose soil base under the new driveway must be compacted until it is stable enough to support the weight of the asphalt.

Professionals ensure a solid base and smooth finish, enhancing durability and appearance.

Several materials are suitable for steep driveways. Gravel and crushed stone are affordable options that provide good traction. Permeable pavers—such as plastic, rubber, or concrete—filled with gravel or crushed stones are also excellent, as they allow water to drain without causing erosion and perform well in ice and snow. Another option is resin, which can be coated with an anti-slip finish and helps prevent puddles. For added stability, you can install a retaining wall to prevent pavers and gravel from shifting over time.

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.

New asphalt typically needs 24 to 72 hours to dry before it can handle light foot traffic and careful driving. Although it may appear solid after a few days, the full curing process, where the asphalt reaches its peak strength, takes much longer—generally from 30 days to a year.

During this extended curing time, the surface remains relatively soft and can be damaged by heavy vehicles, sharp objects, or high temperatures. To protect your investment, it's best to avoid parking heavy machinery on the asphalt until it has fully cured.

The exact time required for drying and curing depends on several factors, including the weather, the specific asphalt mix, and its thickness. For the most accurate advice tailored to your situation, consult with your asphalt contractor.
