We live in the midwest and hold a driveway that if half grass and partly gravel, does anyone know the approximate cost of black top paving???

Thanks!
Answers:    Depending on the overall sq. footage, you're gonna pay anywhere from $10 to $15 per foot, which should include adjectives the preliminary ground work, gravel, underliner, etc...

Also, consider the maint. cost of asphalt. It will need to be resurfaced in the order of every 3 to 5 years. The edges will fade and chunk off. Ground throw up in the winter plays hell near short, unreinforced spans of asphalt. Get your contractors to give up some name and addresses of culture so you can ask some serious questions. You may find that spending a few dollars more for concrete is the channel to go.

Then again, if you're dressing up the house to supply.... lay it and go!
