No. It is also the only way to give you something you can compare, because a remote figure is a guess and comparing two guesses tells you nothing useful about either of them.

Contact us
Not every call has to become a job. Plenty of people get in touch to find out whether a surface needs anything yet, and that is a reasonable use of a phone call rather than a waste of one.
Send a message
Tell us what the surface is doing, roughly how big it is, and how the work would be reached. The more of that we have beforehand, the closer the quote is to the final invoice.
A paving estimator follows up to arrange a site visit and send a written quote with the area, the depths and the exclusions on it. We reply within one business day.
What happens next
Roughly how big, what the surface is doing, and how it would be reached. Enough to tell you what kind of job it probably is.
Area measured on a wheel, the cracking pattern read, access checked and the drainage looked at. This is where a figure becomes comparable.
Area, asphalt and base depths, exclusions, and the rate for additional base work if the ground turns out to be poor underneath.
A window rather than a morning, narrowed as the forecast firms up, because weather decides paving dates rather than the calendar.
Common questions
Sent photos through the form on a Sunday and had a rough price range and two site-visit times by Monday morning.
Called with a question about whether my driveway could be resurfaced or needed replacing. Got a real answer on the phone and a site visit the same week.
The written quote listed the square footage, the base work and the asphalt depth separately. First paving quote I could actually compare.
Asked for an evening callback and that is when the phone rang.
Or just call
Tell us what it is doing and roughly how big it is. We will say what kind of job it sounds like and whether it is worth anyone coming out yet.
Asking whether the work is needed is a perfectly good reason to call.
