I find your website very informative esp in the initial stages of researching driveways. you did not have any referrals in my area, only a partner network who gave me bbc exterior and paving. i had set up an appointment with mark, the owner but then later called to express some doubts as to whether i would need another asphalt estimate. he convinced me that his work was good and that we should still meet and if i approve the estimate that he could start right away?? i said i would send drawings but since we were meeting the next day, did not email them. he never showed up for the appointment or called. i should have been a bit weary about someone who commits to starting the next day. and did he not show bc i did not email the drawings? i know this was not your referral but home advisor needs better vetting.

Thanks for your insightful videos. We went with Mike Ottman Paving and are happy with the results.

I'm trying to decide between a 2" top coat or a 1 1/2 " topcoat. Would Patrick be able to tell from pictures or a video which I should choose. Only one contractor in my area has suggested I need a 2" on my 40 year old driveway. Thanks. I've gotten numerous e-mails and looked at all of your videos.
