Our Paving Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your property and discuss exactly what you need. No generic estimates or one-size-fits-all approaches. We look at drainage, traffic patterns, and existing conditions.

Next, we prepare the surface properly. This means removing old asphalt if needed, grading for proper drainage, and ensuring a solid foundation. Skipping these steps is where most paving jobs fail.

Then we apply quality asphalt using professional equipment. We work efficiently to minimize disruption while ensuring even coverage and proper compaction. The result is a smooth, durable surface that’s ready for use.

For Washington Park properties, we understand the specific challenges of New Jersey weather. Our approach accounts for freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rain, and the wear patterns common in this area.

How long does asphalt paving typically last in New Jersey?

Quality asphalt paving in New Jersey typically lasts 15-20 years with proper installation and maintenance. The key factors are using the right materials for our climate, proper site preparation, and correct installation techniques. New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are tough on pavement, so the base preparation and asphalt mix quality make a huge difference. Regular sealcoating every 3-5 years can extend the life even further by protecting against water penetration and UV damage.

What's the difference between residential and commercial paving?

Commercial paving typically requires thicker asphalt and stronger base preparation to handle heavier traffic loads and frequent use. Residential driveways usually need 2-3 inches of asphalt, while commercial parking lots often require 3-4 inches or more. The base preparation is also more extensive for commercial projects. Commercial work also involves different considerations like ADA compliance, proper drainage for larger areas, and line striping. Both types need quality materials and proper installation, but commercial projects have higher structural requirements.

How do you handle drainage issues during paving?

Proper drainage is critical for long-lasting asphalt. We grade the surface to direct water away from buildings and prevent pooling. This includes creating the right slope – typically 1-2% grade for effective drainage. We also install catch basins or drainage systems when needed for larger areas. Poor drainage is one of the main reasons asphalt fails prematurely, causing cracks, potholes, and base failure. We assess drainage during the initial site evaluation and address any issues before laying new asphalt.

What should I expect during the paving process?

Most residential driveways take 1-2 days to complete, while larger commercial projects may take several days. We start with site preparation, which includes removing old pavement if necessary and preparing the base. Then we install the new asphalt and compact it properly. You’ll need to keep vehicles off the new asphalt for 24-48 hours to allow proper curing. We’ll let you know exactly what to expect for your specific project, including any temporary access restrictions and when you can use the surface normally.

How much does professional paving cost in Washington Park?

Paving costs depend on the size of the area, site conditions, and thickness requirements. Residential driveways typically range from $3-7 per square foot, while commercial projects vary based on traffic requirements and site complexity. Factors that affect price include excavation needs, base preparation requirements, drainage work, and access to the site. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Quality materials and proper installation cost more upfront but save money long-term.

Do you provide warranties on your paving work?

Yes, we stand behind our work with warranties that cover both materials and workmanship. The specific warranty terms depend on the project type and scope, but we typically provide coverage against defects in installation and premature failure due to workmanship issues. This doesn’t cover damage from normal wear, extreme weather events, or improper use. We use quality materials from reputable suppliers who also provide material warranties. We’ll explain the warranty coverage for your specific project during the estimate process so you know exactly what’s protected.
