Q.       How long is the guarantee that Excel Asphalt offers?
A.   We put our money where our mouth is and offer a 5 year written guarantee. Some of our competitors don’t even offer a guarantee, and some offer only 12 months. This simply isn’t long enough. Your asphalt paving construction is a significant investment that should last you a long time and YOU MUST PROTECT YOURSELF.
 
Q.   How long will my asphalt driveway / asphalt construction area last?
A.   As long as it is constructed by a reputable company, with quality materials, it should last 20 – 30 years.
 
Q.   How much does asphalt paving construction cost per square meter?
A.   Cost per square meter is variable depending on factors such as the amount of preparation required, choice of edging, the colour of the asphalt, etc. Please contact Excel Asphalt to organise a time to meet with you to discuss your requirements and to measure the desired area, so I can provide you with an accurate quotation.

Cost of asphalting in comparison to cost of concreting represents excellent value for money. Plain grey concrete generally costs between $60 - $65 per square meter. An asphalt driveway with feature edging can be comparative per square meter in price, and the end result is so much more aesthetically pleasing!
 
Q.   At times I see asphalt surfaces in poor condition. Why?
A.   This can be due to a number of reasons including poor base preparation, use of B-grade materials, cutting corners and not using enough materials, inexperience, or poor workmanship. To ensure this doesn’t happen to you, please read our PROTECT YOURSELF information.
 
Q.   Will an asphalt area complement my house and garden?
A.   Asphalt constructions complement houses from the very modern to the older style home, and will highlight your garden, landscaping and home.
 
Q.   Is asphalt available in different colours?
A.   Asphalt is available in black, brown, granite* and red-brown, however the ‘coloured’ asphalt is a more expensive product. *Note: asphalt with granite rock instead of the usual bluestone will fade off to a more silver speckled colour over time.
 
Q.   How long until I can drive on my new asphalt driveway / asphalt construction area?
A.   We recommend you do not drive on your new asphalt surface for 48 hours.
