Tate Brothers Paving

Tate Brothers Paving is a family-run asphalt paving company on Old Derry Road in Hudson, New Hampshire, whose name comes up again and again when southern New Hampshire homeowners ask who should do their driveway. The Better Business Bureau lists the business as started in 1968 and incorporated in 2005, with William Tate as president, and Porch describes it as operating since the '60s. Its BBB-listed services cover driveways, private drives, sidewalks, parking lots, asphalt repairs and tennis courts, along with fill and truck and screener rentals. The written record is consistent and centers on residential driveways. Homeowners repeatedly describe Josh Tate and his crews getting drainage and grading right: in a July 2025 review, a homeowner said Tate was the only one of three quoting companies to correctly diagnose the drainage problem behind their puddling and frost heaves, and in a November 2025 review another described watching rain run down the length of a rebuilt 75-foot driveway exactly as designed. A June 2024 reviewer described a sinkhole under their driveway that proved far bigger than it looked and was assessed and repaired quickly. Recent 2026 reviewers praise the attention to detail where the asphalt meets garages and steps, Josh's assessment matching the finished work, and clear communication about the plan, timeline and costs. Longevity and repeat business are a recurring theme. One 2025 reviewer has used the company three times over more than 21 years, a 2021 reviewer said Tate paved their first driveway 35 years earlier, and in September 2026 Reddit threads commenters reported driveways still looking good after three and ten years. On price, reviewers place Tate in the middle or low end of their estimates and call it fair or reasonable, while a 2023 Reddit commenter described them as pricey but lasting. A 2021 reviewer noted the crew pulled the necessary permits and called Dig Safe before starting. Google shows 4.9 stars from 41 ratings. The company is BBB accredited since 1990 with an A+ rating, and the BBB lists a U.S. Department of Transportation number on file.
