When planning to pave a driveway at your home, it may be difficult to decide which material to use. At R & R Grading and Paving, we believe asphalt is the superior choice over concrete for many reasons.

Why You Should Use Asphalt Paving at Your Home

  • Cost-effectiveness. Asphalt is not only cheaper to install during the initial paving­, but it also continues to save money over time by requiring less repairs and costly maintenance. Concrete installations can become incredibly expensive, especially if the driveway is large.
  • Ease of Repair. Asphalt is a relatively flexible material, making it more resistant to cracks than concrete. Many problems with pavement arise with temperature fluctuations, and the rigidity of concrete often leaves it more vulnerable to cracking under these conditions. Asphalt paving also results in an easier repair and maintenance process moving forward, decreasing future hassle and spending.
  • Appearance. Asphalt paving results in a surface that is smooth and more resistant to skids than concrete, making it both safer and more attractive over time. When concrete driveways are repaired, it can be difficult to match the color and texture of the original concrete, preventing uniformity and decreasing visual appeal. When asphalt driveways are repaired, the patching and filling blend seamlessly in with the existing driveway.
