"Excellent. TH & Sons is a 4th Generation, family owned company, just the type of company you want doing your driveway: A company with Experience and one who does Quality work. TH & Sons isn't the least expensive paving option available nor are they the most expensive. They are the embodiment of "you get what you pay for" - they charge a fair price and in exchange you receive a high quality product & service. TH & Sons Paving showed up when they said they would, Tommy kept us informed throughout the project & included us in decisions along the way (vs making assumptions in the interest of their time). Tommy also makes himself available via text/phone afterhours and does everything possible to finish on-time. I'm a stickler for quality & service but also maximizing value. Like most people, we "wanted it all" without breaking the bank, and that required a lot of searching. We screened countless companies/contractors and ultimately had more than a dozen cement & asphalt paving contractors/companies quote our project. That may seem excessive but our driveway is over 300' long; we couldn't afford to select the wrong contractor/company. We eventually selected TH & Sons Paving and if we had to do it all over again, we'd undoubtedly select TH Sons & Paving. We already put the time & effort into getting well over a dozen contractors'/companies' quotes & then researching each Co's past projects. Trust this review to save yourself all the time and effort of searching further because we did that already so you might as well benefit too: select TH & Sons Paving for your project and rest assured you made the right choice."

"The driveway was paved in the fall of 2012. Shortly thereafter it began to gravel. They sent a crew out to try and make it better. This did not work because the asphalt was a bad batch. Since the weather turned too cold they said they would return in the spring. In the early spring I contacted them and they sent a crew out to completely repave the driveway.. It has been 2 months and the job looks great. We have a drain at the bottom that used to gather water and they graded it properly so it would drain correctly. <br />"

"That particular company had been getting a bad rep before we used them. We went ahead and used them and it was not an insurance claim and they did an excellent job. They're competitive and very comparable to everybody else in our area. They're not any more expensive, they're not any less. They do a really good job, what they promise to do, they do."

FAQs for asphalt paving installation projects in Athens, TN

Most driveways wrap up in roughly a week. Allow two to three days for installation, followed by an additional two to three days for the surface to cure. Concrete and asphalt follow this timeline, whereas a gravel job often finishes more quickly. Laying out the schedule upfront makes it easier to plan your week and your budget.

Sealer prevents water, salt, and UV rays from damaging the surface. Apply a fresh coat every one to three years, and you’ll slow down the growth of cracks, avoid pricey repairs, and keep the driveway looking sharp. A local professional can handle the job efficiently and ensure even coverage.

Material is the significant driver when it comes to the lifespan of a driveway. Asphalt stays strong for about 20 years, concrete lasts 30 to 40 years, and paver stones can last 50 to 100 years because you can swap out damaged bricks. With regular top-ups, a gravel drive can also reach the century mark. Knowing these timelines helps you map out long-term maintenance and replacement costs.

Repaving strips everything down and starts fresh, letting you change the layout or improve drainage before pouring new material. Resurfacing, on the other hand, adds a top layer over a solid base, giving you a facelift without the need for a complete demolition. Go with repaving when the base is failing; choose resurfacing when the structure is sound and you just need a new surface.
