Our Paving Installation Process

How We Handle Your Project

We start with a site evaluation to assess your current surface, drainage needs, and any underlying issues that could affect the new pavement. No surprises later – we identify potential problems upfront.

Next comes proper preparation. We excavate to the right depth, ensure proper base materials, and grade for drainage. This foundation work determines how long your pavement will last, so we don’t cut corners here.

The asphalt installation uses quality materials applied at the right temperature and thickness for your specific use. We compact properly and finish edges cleanly. After installation, we explain maintenance requirements and provide timeline expectations for full curing.

What's Included In Our Service

Every paving project includes proper site preparation, quality asphalt materials, and professional installation with appropriate compaction and finishing. We handle permits when required and coordinate with local utilities if needed.

You get transparent pricing upfront – no hidden charges for “unexpected” site conditions that any experienced contractor should anticipate. Our crews arrive with proper equipment and complete projects efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine.

We also provide realistic timelines and maintenance guidance so you know what to expect during curing and how to protect your investment long-term. Far Hills properties deserve paving that enhances value, not creates ongoing headaches.

How long does asphalt paving take to cure completely?

New asphalt needs about 24-48 hours before you can drive on it, but full curing takes 6-12 months depending on weather conditions. You can use your driveway or parking lot normally after the first few days, but avoid heavy loads or sharp turns during the first week. We’ll give you specific guidelines based on your project size and the season when we install. The surface gets stronger over time as it fully cures, which is why proper installation and quality materials matter so much for long-term performance.

What's the difference between asphalt and concrete for driveways?

Asphalt costs less upfront and handles New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete. It’s more flexible, so it moves with ground shifts instead of cracking. Concrete lasts longer but costs significantly more and can crack badly if the ground settles. For most Far Hills properties, asphalt provides better value – it looks professional, lasts 15-20 years with proper maintenance, and can be resurfaced when needed instead of completely replaced. The key is proper installation with adequate base preparation.

How do I know if I need complete replacement or just resurfacing?

If your current pavement has widespread cracking, multiple potholes, or drainage issues, you likely need full replacement. Surface-level wear, minor cracks, or fading usually means resurfacing will work fine. We evaluate the base condition, not just what you see on top. Poor drainage, foundation settling, or base failure requires starting over. Resurfacing over bad foundation just wastes money. During our site evaluation, we’ll explain exactly what we find and why we recommend replacement or resurfacing for your specific situation.

What should I expect to pay for driveway paving in Far Hills?

Driveway paving costs depend on size, site conditions, and whether you need full replacement or resurfacing. Most residential driveways in Far Hills run $3-7 per square foot for new installation, with resurfacing costing less. Factors that affect pricing include excavation requirements, base preparation needs, drainage work, and access difficulty. We provide detailed written estimates that break down costs so you understand what you’re paying for. Extremely low bids usually mean corners will be cut on materials or preparation work that you’ll pay for later.

Do you handle commercial parking lot paving projects?

Yes, we handle commercial paving projects including parking lots, access roads, and loading areas throughout Far Hills and Somerset County. Commercial projects require different specifications than residential work – heavier base preparation, thicker asphalt, and proper striping and drainage. We coordinate with property managers on scheduling to minimize business disruption and handle any required permits or inspections. Our commercial clients include retail centers, office buildings, and industrial facilities that need reliable contractors who understand commercial requirements and timelines.

How do I maintain new asphalt to make it last longer?

Seal coating every 2-3 years protects asphalt from water penetration and UV damage. Fill cracks promptly before they spread and allow water underneath. Keep the surface clean – remove oil spills quickly and avoid using harsh chemicals for snow removal. Don’t let heavy vehicles park in the same spots repeatedly, especially when the asphalt is hot in summer. Good drainage is crucial, so keep edges clear and address any standing water issues immediately. We’ll provide specific maintenance guidelines based on your installation and local conditions.
