Driveway Paving Process

How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your current driveway and discuss what you need. We look at drainage, grade, and any existing issues that need addressing before new paving begins.

Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This is where most problems start if it’s done wrong. We excavate to the right depth, install proper base material, and compact everything correctly.

Then we pave using quality asphalt or concrete, depending on your choice. We handle grading, ensure proper drainage flow, and finish edges cleanly. The result is a driveway that looks professional and performs for years.

Everything Your Driveway Needs

We handle new driveway installation, complete resurfacing, and major repairs. Whether you need asphalt, concrete, or are unsure which material works best for your situation, we can walk you through the options.

Our service includes proper excavation, base preparation, drainage solutions, and professional paving. We also handle the details like connecting to existing surfaces, managing water runoff, and ensuring your driveway integrates well with your landscaping.

For Peapack and Gladstone properties, we often work with longer driveways, circular drives, and situations where proper drainage is critical. We understand these requirements and plan accordingly.

Should I choose asphalt or concrete for my driveway?

Both materials work well in New Jersey, but each has advantages depending on your situation. Asphalt costs less upfront, handles freeze-thaw cycles better, and can be resurfaced when needed. Concrete lasts longer overall and offers more design options, but costs more initially and can crack if not installed properly. For most residential driveways in our area, asphalt provides the best combination of durability and value. We’ll assess your specific property and help you decide based on your budget, aesthetic preferences, and long-term plans.

How long does a typical driveway paving project take?

Most residential driveway projects take 2-3 days from start to finish. Day one involves excavation and base preparation. Day two is paving and initial finishing. Day three handles final details and cleanup. Larger or more complex driveways may take longer, especially if significant drainage work is needed. Weather can affect timing – we won’t pave in rain or extreme temperatures because it compromises quality. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. You can typically drive on a new asphalt driveway within 24-48 hours.

What causes driveways to crack and how do you prevent it?

Most driveway problems start with poor base preparation or inadequate drainage. If the base isn’t thick enough or properly compacted, the driveway will settle and crack. Water that can’t drain properly will freeze, expand, and create cracks. We prevent these issues by excavating to proper depth, installing adequate base material, and ensuring water flows away from the surface. We also use quality materials and proper installation techniques. New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are tough on driveways, but proper installation handles these conditions without problems.

How much does driveway paving cost in this area?

Driveway paving costs depend on size, material choice, site conditions, and amount of prep work needed. Asphalt typically runs less per square foot than concrete, but every project is different. Driveways requiring significant excavation, drainage work, or dealing with challenging access cost more. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. The investment usually pays for itself through increased property value and avoiding ongoing repair costs. We’re happy to discuss your specific situation and provide a clear, honest estimate.

Do you handle driveway repairs or just new installation?

We handle both repairs and new installations, though the right approach depends on your driveway’s current condition. Minor cracks and surface issues can often be repaired cost-effectively. Extensive cracking, settling, or drainage problems usually require complete replacement or resurfacing. We’ll assess your driveway honestly and recommend the most practical solution. Sometimes a repair buys you a few more years; other times it’s better to invest in doing it right. We’ll explain your options and help you make the decision that makes sense for your situation and budget.

What kind of warranty do you provide on your work?

We warranty our workmanship and stand behind the quality of our installation. The specific warranty terms depend on the scope of work and materials used, but we address any issues that result from improper installation. We use quality materials from reputable suppliers who also provide material warranties. Most importantly, we do the work right the first time using proper techniques and equipment. We’ve been serving this area for years and our reputation depends on customer satisfaction. If there’s ever a problem with our work, we’ll make it right.
