Hear from Our Customers
You know the drill. Every spring, you walk outside to find new cracks and potholes from another harsh New Jersey winter. Your driveway looks like a war zone, and you’re wondering if this year’s repair bill will hit four figures again.
Here’s what changes when you get it done right the first time. Your driveway actually handles the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy most asphalt in Nutley. Water doesn’t seep into cracks because there aren’t any significant ones to begin with. Come spring, you’re not calling contractors for emergency repairs.
The difference is in the installation process and materials. We use proper base preparation that accounts for Nutley’s soil conditions and drainage patterns. The asphalt mix is designed for New Jersey’s temperature swings. And the installation follows specifications that most contractors skip to save time and money.
Platinum Paving has been handling asphalt projects in Nutley and Essex County for years. We understand what works in this area because we deal with the same weather, the same soil conditions, and the same property challenges you do.
Most of our work comes from referrals, which tells you something about how our customers feel about the finished product. When your neighbor recommends us after their driveway makes it through three winters without major repairs, that means more than any advertisement.
We’re licensed and insured, obviously. But more importantly, we show up when we say we will, do the work according to specifications, and stand behind what we install. In a town where property values average nearly $500,000, your driveway isn’t just pavement—it’s part of your investment.
First, we assess your current situation and drainage patterns. Many driveway problems in Nutley start with water that has nowhere to go, so we identify and address those issues upfront.
Next comes excavation and base preparation. This is where most contractors cut corners, but it’s also where your driveway’s longevity is determined. We remove the old material, grade for proper drainage, and install a compacted stone base that won’t shift or settle.
The asphalt installation happens when conditions are right—proper temperature, dry weather, and fresh hot-mix material. We spread it evenly, compact it properly, and make sure the edges are sealed correctly. The whole process typically takes one to two days depending on the size and complexity of your project.
Final step is cleanup and a walkthrough to make sure everything meets our standards and yours. You get care instructions and our contact information for any questions that come up later.
