How the marketplace works for operators
- Homeowners request jobs. They describe the work on Driveway.co by ZIP and service.
- We turn it into a job brief. The request is structured the way an estimator would want it, not just a name and a phone number.
- The brief goes to a matching operator. It's routed to an operator in the network who covers that ZIP and does that service, not blasted to a list of companies.
- You quote and do the work directly. The job, and payment for it, are between you and the customer.
What's in a job brief
- ZIP code and matched town
- Service type and timing
- Property type
- Current surface and what the homeowner wants done
- Rough size and slope
- Issues: cracks, potholes, sinking, drainage, roots, apron, HOA
- A short description in the homeowner's words
- Photos, when provided
- Contact details and consent to be contacted
Pricing and fees
Operators, not homeowners, pay to receive job requests. We haven't published pricing yet. We'll go over fees with you before you receive any job, and sending the interest form costs nothing.
Why a national brand just for driveway work
General marketplaces treat driveways like any chore and sell the same lead to several companies. A driveway quote turns on details: surface, size, slope, base, drainage, and whether the old drive comes out. A brand that only does driveways asks those up front.
Licenses and insurance
Licensing for paving and concrete contractors varies by state and city, and driveway and curb-cut work often needs a city permit. We don't guarantee any operator's license. Once operators join, we'll check licenses where they're required and show the date we checked.
What we won't do
- Invent reviews, ratings, or badges for anyone.
- Show a license or insurance mark we haven't checked ourselves.
- Pretend you have an office in towns you don't serve.
- Promise homeowners start dates on your behalf.

Operator FAQ
What is Driveway.co?
A nationwide marketplace that's only for driveways. Homeowners and property managers submit job requests by ZIP code and service; we route them to paving and concrete contractors in the network who cover that area and do that kind of work.
Who pays?
Homeowners don't pay to request quotes. Operators pay to receive job requests. We haven't published pricing; we'll go over it with you before you receive any jobs, and filling in the interest form doesn't commit you to anything.
What kinds of jobs come through?
Residential and light commercial requests for asphalt and concrete driveways, repairs, and sealcoating. You choose which services and areas.
Is the network already live in my area?
Probably not yet. The network is new. We're collecting interest from contractors now and will be upfront about how much request volume an area has before you commit.
Do you check licenses?
Yes, once you join: we'll ask for any license your state or city requires and proof of insurance, check them, and show the date we checked.
