Driveway Paving Contractor Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we come out to assess your current surface and drainage situation. We measure everything, check the base condition, and identify any issues that need addressing before new asphalt goes down.

Next, we remove the old asphalt if necessary and prepare the base properly. This means grading for proper drainage and compacting the foundation. Most paving problems start with shortcuts during this step, so we don’t skip it.

Then we install the new asphalt using professional equipment that ensures even thickness and proper compaction. We seal the edges, clean up completely, and let you know exactly when it’s safe to drive on. The whole process typically takes 1-2 days depending on the size of your project.

What's Included in Every Project

Every paving job starts with proper site preparation and drainage evaluation. We handle permits when required and coordinate with local utilities if needed. Our work includes base preparation, professional asphalt installation, and complete cleanup.

Most residential driveways take 1-2 days from start to finish, depending on size and whether we’re replacing existing asphalt or starting fresh. Commercial parking lots vary based on square footage and complexity, but we’ll give you an exact timeline during the estimate. Weather can affect the schedule since we can’t install asphalt in rain or extreme temperatures. We always let you know exactly when you can drive on the new surface – typically 24-48 hours after installation.
Asphalt costs less upfront and handles New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete. It’s also easier to repair if damage occurs. Concrete lasts longer but costs significantly more and can crack from salt and temperature changes. For most Iselin homeowners, asphalt provides the best value – it looks professional, lasts 15-20 years with proper maintenance, and costs about half what concrete does. Commercial properties almost always choose asphalt for parking lots because it’s more cost-effective for large areas.
Most driveway replacements don’t require permits if you’re staying within the existing footprint. However, if you’re expanding your driveway, changing the drainage pattern, or connecting to a public street, you’ll likely need township approval. We handle permit applications when required and know Iselin’s specific requirements. We’ll let you know during the estimate if permits are needed and factor that timeline into the project schedule. It’s always better to check than assume, especially for larger projects.
Asphalt paving typically runs $3-7 per square foot in the Iselin area, depending on thickness, site conditions, and project size. Larger projects cost less per square foot than smaller ones. If we need to remove existing asphalt or do significant base work, that adds to the cost. The best way to get accurate pricing is with an on-site estimate where we can measure everything and assess the current conditions. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Properly installed asphalt typically lasts 15-20 years in New Jersey’s climate with basic maintenance. The key factors are proper base preparation, adequate thickness, and good drainage. Regular sealcoating every 3-4 years extends the life significantly by protecting against water penetration and UV damage. Commercial parking lots may need replacement sooner due to heavier traffic loads, but residential driveways often last even longer with light use. The quality of the initial installation makes the biggest difference in longevity.
It depends on the condition of your existing asphalt. If it’s structurally sound with only surface cracking, we can often install a new layer over it. This saves money and time. However, if there are drainage issues, major cracks, or base problems, removal is necessary for a lasting result. We evaluate this during the estimate and recommend the most cost-effective approach that will give you the best long-term results. Sometimes a partial removal and repair is the right middle ground between full replacement and simple overlay.
