Surfaces That Actually Last

You need paving work that stands up to real conditions. Not just the summer heat, but the freeze-thaw cycles that crack poorly installed asphalt every winter.

When your driveway or parking lot is done right, you stop worrying about it. No more puddles forming in low spots. No more edges crumbling after the first snowplow. No more calling contractors back to fix what should have been done properly the first time.

That’s what proper base preparation and quality materials get you. A surface that handles traffic, weather, and time without falling apart. Your property looks professional, functions smoothly, and maintains its value.

Professional Paving Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your site conditions, drainage needs, and traffic requirements. This isn’t a quick glance – we’re looking at soil conditions, existing drainage patterns, and how water moves across your property.

Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This is where most problems start if done incorrectly. We remove inadequate base material, ensure proper depth, and compact everything to specifications that will support your specific load requirements.

Then we install the asphalt in appropriate lifts, using professional-grade equipment for proper compaction and smooth finishes. The final step is ensuring clean edges, proper transitions, and any necessary striping or marking. You get a surface that’s ready for immediate use and built to last.

How long does a typical driveway paving project take to complete?

Most residential driveways take 1-2 days to complete, depending on size and site conditions. Day one typically involves excavation, base preparation, and compaction. Day two covers asphalt installation and finishing. Weather can affect timing, and we won’t rush work just to meet an arbitrary schedule. Proper base preparation and compaction can’t be hurried if you want results that last. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our initial assessment and keep you updated if conditions require adjustments.

What's the difference between overlay and complete replacement for existing driveways?

Overlay means applying new asphalt over existing pavement, while replacement involves removing old material and starting fresh. Overlay works when your existing base is solid and drainage is adequate. If you have base failures, drainage problems, or significant cracking, replacement is usually the better investment. We’ll assess your current conditions and recommend the approach that makes sense for your situation and budget. Sometimes spending more upfront for replacement saves money long-term compared to overlaying a failing base.

How do you handle drainage issues during paving projects?

Proper drainage is critical for asphalt longevity, especially in New Jersey’s climate. We evaluate how water currently moves across your property and identify problem areas before starting work. This might involve adjusting grades, installing drainage structures, or modifying transitions to existing surfaces. Standing water is asphalt’s biggest enemy, so we don’t just pave over drainage problems. If your current surface has drainage issues, we’ll address the root cause as part of the project, not just cover it up with new asphalt.

What type of asphalt mix do you use for different applications?

We select asphalt mixes based on your specific application and traffic requirements. Residential driveways typically use a different mix than commercial parking lots that handle heavy vehicles. The aggregate size, binder content, and additives vary depending on expected load and climate exposure. We source materials from local suppliers who meet New Jersey DOT specifications and can provide the right mix for your project’s requirements. Using the correct mix for your application is part of ensuring long-term performance and avoiding premature failures.

Do you provide warranties on your paving work?

Yes, we warranty our workmanship because we’re confident in our installation methods and material quality. Warranty terms depend on the specific project and application, but we stand behind proper installation techniques and material specifications. This covers defects in workmanship, not normal wear or damage from factors beyond our control. We’ll explain warranty coverage during project planning so you understand exactly what’s included. Our goal is installations that perform well beyond warranty periods, but the warranty provides peace of mind for your investment.

How soon can vehicles use the new asphalt surface?

You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours, depending on weather conditions and asphalt thickness. Hot weather requires longer cure times, while cooler temperatures allow earlier use. We’ll give you specific timing based on actual conditions during your project. Avoid turning wheels while stationary and heavy loads for the first few days to prevent surface marking. The asphalt continues curing for several weeks, reaching full strength over time. We’ll provide clear guidelines for protecting your new surface during the initial curing period.
