Professional Asphalt Driveway Installation

What You Get With Professional Installation

Your driveway takes a beating. Cars, weather, time – it all adds up to cracks, potholes, and that embarrassing entrance to your home that makes you cringe every time you pull in.

When we install your new driveway, you get smooth surfaces that handle whatever you throw at them. No more dodging potholes or explaining to guests why they need to be careful walking to your front door.

You also get proper drainage that actually works. Water flows where it’s supposed to go instead of pooling up and turning into ice patches that make your driveway a skating rink every winter. Plus, your property value goes up, and your home looks like the well-maintained place it deserves to be.

Driveway Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we come out and assess your current situation. We look at drainage, measure everything, and talk through your options – asphalt, concrete, or resurfacing if that makes more sense. No pressure, just straight information about what will work best for your specific situation.

Next, we prepare the area properly. This means excavation to the right depth, proper base material, and grading that ensures water flows away from your home. Most driveway problems start with shortcuts during prep work, so we don’t take shortcuts.

Then we install your new driveway using professional-grade materials and equipment. We finish with proper compaction and sealing so everything cures correctly. The whole process typically takes 2-3 days depending on size, and we clean up completely when we’re done.

What's Included in Every Project

Every driveway project includes proper excavation and base preparation, professional-grade materials, and equipment that gets the job done right. We handle permits if needed, and we coordinate with you to minimize disruption to your daily routine.

You also get cleanup and disposal of old materials, proper grading for drainage, and a final walkthrough to make sure everything meets your expectations. We explain maintenance recommendations so you know how to protect your investment long-term.

For Kendall Park properties, we pay special attention to the clay soil conditions that can cause settling issues if not handled properly. We also work within HOA guidelines where applicable and can match existing neighborhood aesthetics when that’s important to you.

How long does a new driveway installation take to complete?

Most residential driveway installations take 2-3 days from start to finish. Day one is excavation and base preparation. Day two is installation and initial finishing. Day three, if needed, is final touches and cleanup. Weather can extend this timeline, and larger or more complex driveways may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. You can typically drive on a new asphalt driveway after 24-48 hours, though we recommend avoiding heavy loads for the first week.

Should I choose asphalt or concrete for my Kendall Park driveway?

Both work well in our climate, but each has 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 requires less maintenance over time. For most Kendall Park homes, asphalt makes sense because of our temperature swings and the fact that it’s easier to match existing neighborhood driveways. We’ll assess your specific situation and help you decide based on your budget, preferences, and how long you plan to stay in the home.

What causes driveways to crack and fail prematurely?

Poor base preparation is the biggest culprit. If the foundation isn’t properly excavated, graded, and compacted, your driveway will settle unevenly and crack. Inadequate drainage also destroys driveways – water that can’t escape will freeze, expand, and create cracks that only get worse. Using cheap materials or skipping steps like proper compaction will also lead to early failure. In Kendall Park, we also see problems from contractors who don’t account for our clay soil conditions, which expand and contract with moisture changes.

How much does driveway paving cost in Kendall Park?

Costs vary based on size, material choice, site conditions, and what prep work is needed. Asphalt typically runs less than concrete, but both depend on factors like drainage requirements and whether we’re starting from scratch or working with existing materials. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Most homeowners find that investing in proper installation upfront costs less than dealing with repairs and replacement down the road from cheaper, poorly done work.

Do you handle permits and work with HOA requirements?

Yes, we handle permit applications when they’re required and work within HOA guidelines. Some Kendall Park neighborhoods have specific requirements about materials, colors, or installation procedures, and we’re familiar with most of these. We’ll check requirements for your specific location and factor any restrictions into our recommendations. If your HOA requires specific approvals or documentation, we can provide the technical specifications and project details they typically need for review.

What warranty or guarantee do you provide on driveway work?

We warranty our workmanship and stand behind every installation. The specific terms depend on the type of work and materials used, but we guarantee that our installation will perform as expected when properly maintained. If you have issues related to our workmanship, we’ll make it right. We also help you understand manufacturer warranties on materials and what maintenance is needed to keep everything covered. Most importantly, we’re a local company that’s not going anywhere, so you can reach us if you need service down the road.
