When you notice fading or minor cracking
Before harsh weather seasons
I just got a new asphalt driveway installed by Economy and they were fantastic to work with. I had an interesting experience contracting them. Joseph came to my house shortly after I moved in back in 2019 and quoted the driveway. It was out of my budget at the time, so I ended up doing gravel. I'm embarrased to say I never even responded to his quote back then. I had forgotten about that and when embarking on the asphalt project again, I had found another couple of local contractors. One got me a quote about 2 weeks after visiting. I asked a follow up question and never got a response. Another got me a quote 2 MONTHS after visiting, and it was 3 times as high as the first. Because I was waiting so long for the 2nd quote, I searched my email for "asphalt" to see if maybe I missed it, and Joseph's quote from 2019 came up. It was significantly lower than the 1st quote I got (which makes sense because it was 2019), but even after coming out (not giving me a hard time about my lack of response from before) and getting me a quote in just a few days, he was still the lowest. Scheduling was easy and communication was clear. He called the day before they were scheduled to start and let me know that his new baby had come early, and he would not be able to be there, but his partner, Abi would run the work. I lined Abi out the next morning, and they were off to the races. He didn't miss a thing, communicated great, and did a great job. They knocked out a 4,000 SF driveway including a 250'L berm one one side in 2 days. It was clear that they took pride in their work, and they worked a really long day on day 2 to make sure everything was done well. Great work done by great people.
Joseph and the entire crew are the best you could possibly ask to do work for you or your buisness. They have done work at our shopping plaza in Everett two times now and the work is fast and holds up to the heavy use from our customers! When you consider a company that is reputable and honest you have to go with Economy Asphalt & Concrete LLC. Thanks Joseph!!
Josheph and his team did a great hob on two commercial parking lots, I can't recommend team highly enough. Dave
Economy Asphalt has done several projects for us. Their work is excellent, they are on-time and on-budget. The communication with them is very good and they follow through with what they say they will do. I highly recommend them.
I feel bad that I am just now posting this review! I was reminded yesterday by one of our condo owners, at a building in Snohomish where I have my business, that our experience with and results from Economy Asphalt were over the top! We had an eruption of water and clay in the middle of our back parking lot in January that Joseph and his team were able to quickly excavate, refill and repave a large area to prevent further eruptions. The building HOA will be using them again soon to complete repaving the lot. Great work and fairly priced!
As president of a cul de sac homeowner's association, the time arrived for me to gain support to seal coat and fill cracks in the development's private road. An investment of this size always brings significant scrutiny. Joseph was extremely helpful in answering my neighbors' questions and concerns prior to their approving the project. He was extremely helpful scheduling mutually acceptable time for the project. After his very professional crew completed the work, Joseph's exemplary customer service to finalize with some minor touch-up was most impressive. I give Economy Asphalt & Concrete my highest recommendation.
We just had our driveway asphalted today, Joseph gave us a great bid and they went above and beyond our expectations. They were early, took extra time to go over the work they did. They also recommended some work on the side of the driveway and took care of that in the same day. All the workers were professional and did a great job. I would highly recommend them. We will definitely be using them again in the future.
I would recommend Economy Asphalt to anyone & everyone! There service was prompt, their communication was fantastic and they went ABOVE & BEYOND what I expected. They poured a concrete floor in my garage & my barn and built a gravel driveway. I got bids from a few companies before I hired them and they were the most affordable of my quotes. I made a few last minute changes and they were able to to accommodate me with no problem. It's refreshing to find a company that is dependable, skilled and affordable. You won't be disappointed.
Joseph and his team did an excellent job replacing our asphalt driveway with concrete and paving our weed infested parking strip. They were communicative, efficient and did fantastic work. I would recommend to anyone looking for concrete and/or asphalt work.
Joseph was responsive, professional and timely. Tje quality of work was excellent. I highly recommend him.
We had our driveway redone by Economy and was extremely pleased with the result. We found few companies that did both concrete and asphalt. Of those that did, not all use rebar in concrete (which was a must for me). This was definitely an expensive project, but they not only came in at the lowest bid, but I was most pleased with their service and what they offered compared to others, so it was a no brainer!
Common Questions
Asphalt sealing is crucial in Seattle due to the frequent rain and occasional freeze-thaw cycles. It helps protect the asphalt from water penetration, oxidation, and UV damage, extending the pavement’s lifespan and maintaining its appearance.
In Seattle’s wet climate, sealing asphalt every 2-3 years is recommended. However, high-traffic areas or surfaces exposed to more severe weather conditions may require more frequent sealing. Regular inspections can help determine the ideal timing.
The ideal time for asphalt sealing in Seattle is during the drier months, typically from late spring to early fall (May to September). This allows for proper curing and reduces the risk of rain interfering with the sealing process.
Yes, there are eco-friendly options available in Seattle. Water-based sealers are less harmful to the environment than traditional coal tar-based sealers. Some contractors also offer plant-based or bio-based sealers that align with Seattle’s environmental consciousness.
Drying time can vary depending on temperature, humidity, and the type of sealer used. In Seattle’s climate, it typically takes 24-48 hours for the sealer to dry sufficiently for foot traffic, and 48-72 hours for vehicle traffic. However, always follow the specific recommendations of your contractor.
Yes, asphalt sealing can help deter moss and algae growth, which are common issues in Seattle’s damp climate. Many sealers contain additives that inhibit the growth of these organisms. Regular sealing, combined with proper cleaning and maintenance, can significantly reduce moss and algae problems.
Proper asphalt sealing shouldn’t negatively impact drainage if done correctly. In fact, it can help prevent water from penetrating the asphalt surface. However, it’s important to ensure that existing drainage patterns are maintained during the sealing process. In Seattle, where proper drainage is crucial, discuss this aspect with your contractor before sealing.
While asphalt sealing typically doesn’t require permits for residential properties, there may be regulations regarding the type of sealers used, especially near environmentally sensitive areas. It’s best to check with the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections or your local contractor for the most up-to-date information on any restrictions or best practices specific to Seattle.
