Blacktop is a combination of bitumen and crushed stone. It has a higher percentage of crushed stone than asphalt. Blacktop is heated up to 300 degrees or higher when it is first laid down. It is a versatile product that can be used for driveways, roadways, parking lots, and walkways. Blacktop paving is generally more affordable than concrete as well. 


Your new blacktop can be walked upon almost immediately. However, it can take 6 to 12 months to fully harden and cure. So, we always recommend that you keep vehicles and traffic off the surface for at least 3 full days or longer in hot weather. If you allow 3 days or more for the blacktop paving to harden and cure without any traffic, it will give it the best chance at lasting as long as possible and prevent cracking and uneven surfaces. 

Benefits of Blacktop Paving

  • Affordable: Blacktop is more affordable than concrete. Blacktop generally costs between $2 - $4 per square foot while concrete costs about $4 - $6 per square foot.


  • Long-Lasting: It is not as durable as concrete. However, with proper maintenance, blacktop can last up to 30 years.

 

  • Quick Installation: Most blacktop installations can be completed within a day or two. It can be walked on almost immediately and driven upon in about three days.


  • Low Maintenance: Blacktop should be sealed about 6 months to a year after the initial installation. Then every three to five years it should be resealed. That is about the only maintenance it will require. If cracks form, these can be easily fixed as well.
