Sterling Blacktop vs Asphalt
What is blacktop anyway, and how is it different from asphalt? Both asphalt and blacktop surfaces are made by mixing two primary ingredients: crushed stone and bitumen (a petroleum-based material commonly used in roofing shingles).
The difference between the two is found in the quantity of each ingredient used in the mixing. Asphalt is used most frequently for high-traffic roadways, frequently traveled by heavy trucks, and contains a much higher percentage of bitumen. Blacktop surfaces in Sterling are more commonly installed for residential driveways, bike paths, and small commercial projects. It contains a higher percentage of crushed stones and much less bitumen. Kerrigan Paving Tar & Chip specializes in sealing blacktop in Sterling and asphalt throughout the area. Call (571) 454-9544 for a great price to seal yours!
Benefits of Blacktop Sealcoating in Sterling
Many homeowners ask us if concrete or blacktop is a better material to use on a driveway surface. It often comes down to personal preference. Concrete as a material for driveways and walkways does have its advantages. Although often more expensive to install, concrete can be more attractive, especially when stamped concrete is used to create interesting designs. However, concrete cracks and chips and is not as easily repaired and maintained.
Blacktop surfaces are heated to a high temperature during the mixing stage. Blacktop can withstand harsh temperatures and weather conditions, and it tends to be more durable than concrete. Although it also cracks and chips as a result of harsh weather conditions, Sterling blacktop is easy to maintain because it can be repaired and resealed season after season at a fairly low cost.

★★★★★ - "Jim and the entire crew were great. We did our driveway with them in early spring and it looks fantastic. We couldn't be happier with the results and appearance. Jim was great to work with and his crew were extremely friendly and clean. Definitely recommend if you are looking for this type of driveway."

★★★★★ - "You don't need to research any further, you have found the right paving company! Jim Kerrigan is one of the "good guys" you want in doing business. Fair and reasonable pricing along with above quality workmanship and very professional. His crew are long-time employees, knowledgeable, kind, and respectful. From making the first call to the company to paying the final invoice was a pleasure. Jim had great ideas for problem areas and I had both paving and tar and chip done. My driveway is beautiful!"

★★★★★ - "This is the company you need to do your driveway surfacing work. No need to shop elsewhere. Jim's estimator gave a fair cost estimate (better than several competitors) based on a close visual inspection and measurement. He provided a clear representation of the work the team would do for the tar and chip job, and clearly explained the details of the job and potential alternatives. The team arrived on time and knocked out the job (about 7500 sqft of uphill driveway and parking area) in about 6-7 hours. They cleaned up the area nicely and the driveway looks great! I will likely have them out next year to repair crumbling asphalt in a different location. Thanks, Jim and your team!!!"

★★★★★ - "We have been wanting an asphalt driveway for quite a long time. Our driveway was a bit of gravel and mostly dirt. Kerrigan did a GREAT job on our driveway. They were able to get the job the next day after we agreed upon our estimate. Their service was prompt and their workmanship was VERY good. Excellent communication, too. Now I wonder why we waited so long. We have a clean place to park our cars and a safe place for the grandkids to play. Thank you so much for a job well done!!"

★★★★★ - "These guys did a great job and I appreciate that. The company representative was always in touch, even after the work was completed, which is important because many times once payment is made companies can ghost you.
There was no sales pressure at the beginning, no small promises made that could not be kept in hopes of keeping our business. Work was done as expected.
One thing I do recommend for those viewing this, make sure to include the sealant package with the installation, apparently for some reason companies who lay asphalt typically don't offer it at the same time. However, doing so protects your driveway from the get-go, preventing fading,"Timothy F., Asphalt Paving in Linden, VA
