Why Homeowners Choose Asphalt for Their Driveways
Concrete may seem appealing, but in Birmingham, MI, asphalt is the practical choice. It flexes with freeze‑thaw cycles, repairs easily, and warms quickly in the sun, helping snow and ice melt faster. Asphalt also offers:
- Cost savings compared to other materials
- Faster installation so your driveway is ready sooner
- A cleaner, uniform look that boosts home value
We’ve paved hundreds of residential properties across Michigan, each tailored to the homeowner’s needs and site conditions.
