Installing a Driveway That Will Last

There are a variety of different materials to choose from, all with their own list of benefits and limitations, varying costs, and installation complexities. For example, let’s compare concrete and asphalt: concrete is a material that tends to last about 5-10 years longer than asphalt, but at the same time, it’s also less flexible than asphalt and typically costs 45%-50% more. These are some of the factors that you’ll need to consider when deciding which driveway is right for you.

To get started, we encourage you to read our Ultimate Guide to Asphalt Driveways. This guide is intended to provide you with a basic understanding of the driveway installation process and some of the pros and cons associated with using asphalt over another material. It will also serve as a great starting point for anyone planning to design or replace a driveway in the St. Croix County area.

The Best Type of Driveway to Install in St. Croix, WI

If you’re considering installing a new driveway in St. Croix, you’ll definitely want to take the weather into consideration. Weather is one of the biggest factors when it comes to the longevity of your driveway, and choosing the right material for the right climate is crucial. 

Since Wisconsin is known for having cold winters with heavy snowfall and ice, you’ll want to choose a material that has been proven to withstand this type of inclement weather. You’ll also want to make sure that you take the proper precautions to prep, clean, and maintain your driveway before and after the winter months.

Needless to say, building a strong driveway is essential if you want to maximize its lifespan and have it last through the cold winter months. For these reasons, we recommend installing an asphalt driveway - just make sure to install your driveway at the right time of year and take the necessary steps to properly maintain it.

Manuel and his crew did an exceptional job of base preparation for our driveway! With Manuel's guidance and patience, we adjusted and expanded the layout to improve access for trailers to our back garage. We are excited for the blacktop to be laid!

From the estimate (very competitive pricing) to the removal of the old drive to the installation of the new asphalt, it was all an A+ experience. The Blacktop Concepts crews were great; efficient and willing to answer our questions. They were also accommodating with the schedule as we had an initial travel conflict but they adjusted and fit us in when convenient for all. Driveway looks super. Thanks to everyone on the Blacktop Concepts team. Two years later: the driveway continues to look great. We couldn't have chosen a better driveway installation company.

They had the best price for repaving my driveway and solid reviews. They did a great job; even made sure the slopes were correct to keep water away from the house. They cleaned up well. NOTE: During the really hot weather in July, a big delivery truck left several tire tread patches on our brand new driveway! The imprints were so clear that they could have been used forensically to ID the truck. I asked Blacktop Concepts if there were something I could do to level out the imprints. I emphasized that I did not hold them responsible. They immediately had someone contact me and arranged a time for him to look at the damage. He showed up a few days later with heater, new asphalt and tools and took care of it! It looks great! Now, that is good customer service!

Our driveway replacement with Blacktop Concepts went very smoothly! Our concrete driveway was in desperate need of replacement and we are so pleased with how our new asphalt driveway looks and functions. The 2 part process of removal and paving was quick, but done well with very little cleanup on our part and a bit of grass to replace along the driveway. So pleased!

Asphalt vs. Concrete Driveways

Caught between two great materials for your driveway? We’re here to help. Our driveway pavers have decades of combined experience and have outlined the pros and cons of asphalt and concrete driveways.

Both of these driveway materials are great choices, but we highly recommend asphalt as the best driveway material for Wisconsin homes. Asphalt is, overall, a more durable material that can handle extreme fluctuations in temperatures. Think 20 degrees and snowing one day and 90 degrees the next - we’ve all been there. Only asphalt will be able to handle those demands.

Asphalt driveway benefits

  • 45% - 50% less expensive than concrete
  • Flexible material
  • Lasts 25 - 30 years

Concrete driveway benefits

  • Can be customized
  • Better material for heavier use (RV and boat storage)
  • Lasts 30 - 40 years

Asphalt Paving Cost & Timeline

Though asphalt costs less than concrete, your overall driveway cost investment will depend on the size and complexity of your project. We’ve completed a variety of non-traditional driveways for homes throughout Western Wisconsin, so we’re uniquely qualified to handle these situations.

Through decades of combined experience, our crew has fine-tuned our driveway replacement process to just three steps:

  1. Free Cost Estimate Consultation 
  2. Driveway Prep Work 
  3. Asphalt Paving 

Replacing your driveway will take some time and cost investment to achieve, but doing so can drastically improve the look of your home and add an average of $7,000 in resale value to your home.
