Professional Paving Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we evaluate your existing surface and drainage situation. We measure the area, check for any underlying issues, and discuss your specific needs. You get a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline.

Once you approve the project, we schedule around your convenience. We prepare the base properly – this step matters more than most people realize. Poor base preparation is why many driveways fail early. We excavate to proper depth, grade for drainage, and compact the base material.

Then we apply the asphalt in lifts, compacting each layer with professional rollers. We pay attention to edges, transitions, and drainage flow. The result is smooth, even asphalt that’s built to last. We clean up completely and walk through the finished project with you.

Most residential driveway projects take 1-2 days from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. Day one typically involves excavation, base preparation, and grading. Day two focuses on asphalt installation and finishing work. Weather conditions can affect timing – we won’t install asphalt in rain or extreme temperatures because it compromises quality. For larger commercial projects, timeline depends on square footage and site conditions, but we always provide realistic schedules upfront and stick to them.
Asphalt and blacktop are essentially the same material – a mixture of aggregate stones and bitumen binder. The terms are often used interchangeably. The key difference is in application and aggregate size. Driveway “blacktop” typically uses smaller aggregate for a smoother finish, while road “asphalt” uses larger stones for heavy traffic durability. Both materials work well for residential driveways when properly installed with correct base preparation and proper compaction techniques.
Driveway paving costs vary based on size, site conditions, and base preparation requirements. Most residential driveways in Pleasant Grove range from $3-7 per square foot for quality installation. Factors affecting price include excavation depth needed, drainage requirements, and access for equipment. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs – no surprises or hidden fees. The investment pays off through increased property value, reduced maintenance, and avoiding costly repairs from poor installation.
You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours after installation, depending on weather conditions and asphalt thickness. We recommend waiting at least 24 hours before any vehicle traffic, and avoiding heavy trucks or sharp turns for the first week. Hot weather requires longer curing time, while cooler temperatures allow earlier use. We’ll give you specific guidance based on your project conditions. Proper curing ensures maximum durability and prevents premature wear or indentations.
Permit requirements depend on your specific project scope and local regulations. Simple driveway resurfacing typically doesn’t require permits, but new installations or significant changes to drainage patterns might. We handle permit applications when needed and ensure all work meets local building codes. Our familiarity with Pleasant Grove requirements means we know what’s needed upfront. We factor permit costs and timeline into your project estimate, so there are no delays or surprises during construction.
Properly installed asphalt requires minimal maintenance for the first few years. Keep the surface clean of debris and address any oil stains promptly. Sealcoating every 2-3 years helps protect against weather damage and extends lifespan. Watch for small cracks and repair them quickly to prevent water infiltration and larger problems. Avoid heavy equipment or sharp objects that could damage the surface. With proper installation and basic maintenance, quality asphalt paving can last 15-20 years or more in New Jersey climate conditions.
