What is the difference between an asphalt driveway and an oil & stone driveway?
~ An asphalt driveway and an oil & stone driveway are actually made from similar materials. The main difference between the two is how they are installed and what the finished surface will look like. An asphalt driveway will result in a hard, blacktop surface suitable for driveway basketball games, bike riding and roller-skating. The surface will be durable, long lasting and require little maintenance. An oil & stone driveway will result in a loose gravel surface suitable for driveway or parking areas. The surface will be rough, and may require periodic maintenance as the stone moves.
