Additional DBA - Assured Asphalt Corpo.
"This company is a swindler. The guy that talks to you is super nice, but the product you receive is garbage. I was part of the Kilmer Park road reconstruction project where they were hired to replace the aprons of driveway that were affected by the construction. Unfortunately I took advantage of the "deal" they offered to replace the rest of the driveway for cheaper since they were there, and I really wish I hadn't. From the first couple days after the job, I already noticed water pooling in the driveway, then after the recommended days of not parking on it, our vehicles still left tire imprints where we parked them. A small amount of gas spilled in one spot, and it ate all the way through to the dirt. I thought I was crazy about how fast the driveway was disintegrating, but I hired a professional seal coat company to try and mitigate the destruction, and they agreed it was a terrible job. I tried contacting the company afterwards with my concerns and was never responded to. All in all, never hire this awful company."

"Very poor communication regarding driveway design before installation. Final layout was very poorly designed and NO DRAWING was shown to owner for approval prior to installation. Omann rep claimed their sales rep did show us a drawing and seemed to imply that we were lying. Very odd, small unusable section of driveway was mysteriously added to side of driveway without consultation to owner. Company representative had no explanation. Very difficult to reach and slow response time. Not willing to offer any solution and accepted no responsibility. They are threatening to go to small claims court. Be very aware before signing contract! P.S. Edge of driveway is already cracking - installed Aug. 2018 - and company rep ignored it."

"The team at United Wall has done another great job for us. This job was even more complicated than our last one because it was for our entire staircase wall, which is both high, curved near the top, and also on stairs. Also, this was probably 15-20 ft long of cracked wall and 7 ft high of cracks. This is excluding the big crack on the other side of the stairs that was also in this project. Same with part of our ceiling. They showed up exactly on time, completed the job on time, and did an incredible job protecting our stairs, preventing dust to other areas, and then cleaning up. They also did a great job protecting the entrance cabinets, walls, and windows. We used them about a year ago and were excited to hire them again for this project. The quality of that work has held up under tremendous load that we’ve put on some of those areas from another construction project that requires bracing that area of the house inside and out. Call them and feel free to call elsewhere, but hire this team if you want quality work done right. I am cross-posting this on the BBB and Google Reviews too."

"Tracer determined a dry creek bed would correct the wet area in our back yard. They completed the work, adding a rock pile in front of the dry creek bed, which was not agreed upon. This solution did not fix the problem. Our back yard is still wet, grass does not grow and it is very unsightly. When we contacted Tracer landscaping they were resistive to listen and correct the problem stating it was not their issue. The representative has abandoned our project, has not returned phone calls and we are seeking a different landscaping company for help to correct. Our back yard is a mess! The french drain was not installed correctly and we struggled to get sod to grow. Again Tracer landscaping stated it was not their problem. I would not recommend this landscaping company for any project."

The best time to install a driveway is from late spring to early fall. This period offers ideal conditions with warm days and cool nights that enable materials like asphalt and concrete to properly set. During this season, moderate temperatures enhance curing, reduce thermal stress, and minimize the risk of premature surface damage. These stable conditions ensure that your driveway is installed with optimal durability and longevity.
Maintaining your driveway requires consistent care, including annual sealing for concrete and periodic sealing for asphalt. Regular sealing prevents water penetration, reduces cracking, and protects the surface from weather-related damage. Following a scheduled maintenance routine not only retains the driveway’s attractive look but also extends its functional lifespan and structural integrity. Prompt repairs and systematic upkeep are essential for long-term durability.
Installing a driveway takes between one and three days for concrete and about two days for asphalt. This timeline reflects the standard duration required for material preparation, installation, and finishing processes. Additional features such as landscaping, custom designs, or complex layouts may extend the overall installation period. A well-coordinated project schedule by skilled professionals ensures high-quality results within the outlined timeframe.
A well-constructed driveway lasts for around 30 years. Consistent maintenance practices such as scheduled sealing, timely crack repairs, and routine inspections are crucial to achieving this longevity. Regular upkeep prevents water damage and surface deterioration while preserving the driveway’s structural integrity and visual appeal. Engaging in proactive maintenance ensures that the driveway remains safe, attractive, and durable over its lifespan.
