"We have a slight hill at the end of our gravel driveway, which washed out pretty badly during the recent hurricane rains. I was looking for someone to repair this, and get us another year out of the gravel driveway before we have it paved. I called three different companies, and Bill Cooper was the one who gave me the best explanation of what needed to be done. He wasn't trying to push me towards an expensive new driveway, but rather gave me options to do it right. In the end, we covered the loose gravel with a milling base, which looks better and sets me up to pave the driveway in a year or so, when it has appropriately settled. I think Bill really knows his stuff, and I'm very happy with the way things turned out."

"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!!!!!"

"Our asphalt driveway is 25 years old. I initially called Richard over two years ago to discuss what could be done to fix the buckling damage caused by tree roots. Richard said he could overlay the existing asphalt, but the problems would reappear in a few years as the trees beside the driveway continued to grow. We decided not to pursue the overlay at that time and instead took down the oak and hickory trees that were causing the problems. I appreciated Richard's honesty and his suggestions for how the driveway might be reshaped absent the trees. I called Richard back about a month ago to discuss the driveway again. He responded right away. I expected him to recommend tearing up all of the asphalt and repaving the whole thing. But he explained why that was not necessary and in fact not the best idea. He was very patient as we tried to understand the scope of the project. Richard made two suggestion regarding reshaping the driveway. We took one suggestion but not the other. In hindsight, we should have taken both suggestions. The shape of the driveway would be even better! As promised Richard was onsite for the entire project. His crew consisted of four other guys who, like Richard, are polite and professional and accomplished at their jobs. The group worked very well together. We did have some clean up work after the job. There was asphalt on the public road, and we had to scrape it up and dispose of it. There was also a small amount of trash left behind by the crew, but I think they were working so hard they didn't have time to do anything with their drink bottles. I called two other contractors before I called Richard back for this job. One did not return my call. The other contractor just asked what I thought needed to be done as opposed to making a recommendation. He showed no creativity in terms of reshaping the driveway to improve its appearance and design. I definitely think Richard's Paving was right for our job!"

"Adam?s Sealcoating did a great job on my driveway. It was pretty faded and had a few cracks, and they sealed it and filled everything so it looks almost brand new again. They showed up when they said they would and cleaned up after. Fair price too. I?d definitely call them again."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

With proper maintenance, asphalt milling driveways can last 30 years or more. Over time, you’ll need to regularly sealcoat your driveway. You should also have your driveway inspected every few years and make any repairs as soon as they are necessary; this will prolong the lifespan of your driveway.

A driveway's lifespan varies by material. Asphalt driveways typically last 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last longer, between 20 and 50 years. The longevity of any driveway is affected by factors like extreme temperatures, heavy traffic, and the quality of maintenance. Regular upkeep, such as filling cracks, resealing the surface, and ensuring proper drainage, can help extend its life. For gravel driveways, regrading to fill in uneven areas every year or two is recommended.

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.

Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting.
