Florida vs. neighboring states
The lowest typical prices among Florida and its neighbors are in Alabama. If you live near the state line, a supplier across the border may be worth a quote — but delivery distance usually decides the final price.
What affects the price
Asphalt prices follow crude-oil prices because the binder is a petroleum product. Small residential jobs cost more per square foot because crews and equipment have a fixed mobilization cost.
The numbers on this page are estimates for planning. They take a national 2026 price range and scale it by Florida's overall price level (103.5 against a U.S. average of 100). Prices within the state can differ a lot between a metro area and a rural county.
