Paving · Same day
What to write the day you send a asphalt driveway estimate
A same-day note is optional. It is not one of the three scheduled follow-ups. Use it when you are not sure the asphalt driveway estimate for $6,700 arrived, or when one point from the visit is easy to forget.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
Skip it if you already talked it through
If you handed over the paper and walked the job, another email that night is noise. Paving estimates sit until the weather window, or until an overlay bid shows up cheaper than a mill-and-fill.
What the recap should say
Name what the price includes: milling the failed asphalt and a new surface at the depth we marked. Name what it leaves out: regrading the yard for drainage, and a concrete apron. Do you want the mill-and-fill only, or a price to fix the low spot that holds water? Do not overlay a driveway that is already pumping water through the cracks.

Your asphalt driveway estimate from Holt Paving
Hi Sharon, I sent the asphalt driveway estimate for $6,700 earlier today. It includes milling the failed asphalt and a new surface at the depth we marked. It does not include regrading the yard for drainage, and a concrete apron. Do you want the mill-and-fill only, or a price to fix the low spot that holds water? Thanks, Derek Holt Holt Paving
