We Know New Jersey Driveways

We’ve been handling residential driveway projects throughout Somerset County for years. We understand what works in this climate and what doesn’t.

We’re not the guys who disappear after the job. We’re local, licensed, and we stand behind our work because we live here too.

Driveway Paving Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your existing driveway and drainage situation. Every property is different, and we need to understand what we’re working with before we give you a price.

Next, we remove the old surface if needed and prepare the base properly. This is where most contractors cut corners, but it’s also where your driveway’s longevity is determined.

Then we install your new asphalt or concrete driveway using the right materials for our climate. We handle grading, drainage, and finishing so you get a surface that looks good and performs well.

Finally, we clean up completely and walk you through proper curing and maintenance. You’ll know exactly when you can drive on it and how to keep it looking its best.

Asphalt and Concrete Driveway Options

What's Included in Your Installation

You get complete driveway installation from excavation to final grading. We handle permits, proper base preparation, and professional-grade materials designed for New Jersey weather.

For asphalt driveways, we use hot-mix asphalt that’s properly compacted and finished. For concrete, we use the right mix design with proper reinforcement and control joints to prevent cracking.

We also handle driveway resurfacing when your base is solid but the surface needs renewal. This saves you money while giving you a fresh, smooth driveway that extends the life of your investment.

How long does a new driveway installation take to complete?

Most residential driveway installations take 1-3 days depending on size and complexity. We excavate and prepare the base on day one, install the new surface on day two, and handle finishing work on day three if needed. Weather can affect timing, especially for concrete work which needs proper curing conditions. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you informed if anything changes. The key is not rushing the process – proper base preparation and curing time determine how long your driveway lasts.

Should I choose asphalt or concrete for my Griggstown driveway?

Both work well in New Jersey, but they have different advantages. Asphalt costs less upfront, handles freeze-thaw cycles better, and is easier to repair if needed. Concrete lasts longer, offers more design options, and doesn’t need periodic sealing. Your choice often depends on budget, aesthetic preferences, and how long you plan to stay in your home. We’ll walk through the pros and cons based on your specific situation, including drainage considerations and how the driveway connects to your home’s style.

How much does driveway paving cost in Griggstown?

Driveway paving costs vary based on size, material choice, and site conditions. Asphalt typically runs less per square foot than concrete, but every project is different. Factors that affect price include excavation needs, drainage requirements, and access to your property. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees. The investment typically pays for itself through increased property value and eliminated repair costs over time.

When can I drive on my new driveway after installation?

For asphalt driveways, you can typically drive on them after 24-48 hours, but we recommend waiting longer in hot weather. Concrete driveways need 7 days minimum before vehicle traffic, though they continue gaining strength for weeks. We’ll give you specific guidance based on weather conditions and the materials used. Walking on the surface is usually fine much sooner. The curing process is crucial for long-term durability, so following our recommendations prevents premature damage that could require costly repairs.

Do you handle driveway repairs or just new installations?

We handle both new installations and repairs, including crack sealing, pothole patching, and driveway resurfacing. Sometimes repair makes more sense than full replacement, especially if your base is still solid. We’ll assess your current driveway honestly and recommend the most cost-effective solution. Minor repairs can extend your driveway’s life significantly, while resurfacing gives you a fresh surface at a fraction of replacement cost. If full replacement is needed, we’ll explain why and show you exactly what’s failing.

What maintenance does my new driveway need?

Asphalt driveways benefit from sealcoating every 2-3 years to protect against weather and oil stains. Concrete driveways need less regular maintenance but should be sealed periodically to prevent water penetration and staining. Both materials last longer with proper drainage and prompt attention to any cracks that develop. We’ll show you what to watch for and provide maintenance recommendations specific to your installation. Good maintenance is simple but makes a huge difference in how long your driveway looks and performs well.
