What Good Asphalt Actually Does

Your driveway stops being a problem you think about. No more steering around potholes or explaining to guests why they need to park on the street.

Good asphalt work means your property looks maintained instead of neglected. It means not worrying about water pooling against your foundation every time it rains. It means your customers can actually park without dodging cracked pavement and puddles.

Most importantly, it means you’re not calling for emergency repairs every few years because someone cut corners on the base work or used cheap materials that can’t handle a Long Island winter.

Coram Asphalt Contractors

We Know Long Island Pavement

All Purpose Paving has been handling asphalt projects across Coram and Long Island for years. We understand what works here and what doesn’t.

Long Island weather is tough on pavement. The freeze-thaw cycles, the salt, the heavy rains – most asphalt work fails because contractors don’t account for these conditions. We do the base work right the first time because we’ve seen what happens when you don’t.

We’re not the cheapest option, and that’s intentional. Quality materials and proper installation cost more upfront but save you money over time.

Asphalt Installation Process

How We Handle Your Project

First, we evaluate your site and explain what needs to happen. No surprises, no upselling – just a clear assessment of the work required.

Next comes preparation. We excavate to the proper depth, install the right base materials, and ensure proper drainage. This is where most contractors cut corners, and it’s why their work fails early.

Then we install the asphalt using materials designed for Northeast weather conditions. We compact everything properly and make sure the surface drains correctly. The job isn’t done until you can use your new pavement safely and it looks professional.

Asphalt Repair Coram NY

What's Included In Our Work

Every asphalt project gets proper base preparation, quality materials, and correct installation techniques. We handle residential driveways, commercial parking lots, and repair work on existing pavement.

For new installations, that means excavation, base stone, compaction, and asphalt application done to handle Long Island’s climate. For repairs, we identify why the pavement failed and fix the underlying problem, not just patch the surface.

We also handle the details that matter – proper edging, clean transitions to existing surfaces, and drainage that actually works. Your project should look professional and function correctly from day one.

How long does asphalt paving take to complete?

Most residential driveways take 1-2 days depending on size and site conditions. Commercial projects vary based on square footage and complexity. Weather affects timing – we won’t install asphalt in rain or when temperatures are too low because it compromises the final result. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if conditions change. The key is doing it right rather than rushing through and having problems later.

What makes asphalt last longer in Long Island weather?

Proper base preparation is everything. Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles destroy pavement that doesn’t have adequate stone base and drainage. We excavate deeper than many contractors and use the right base materials compacted correctly. The asphalt mix also matters – we use materials designed for Northeast conditions, not generic mixes that work fine in warmer climates but fail here. Proper drainage prevents water from getting under the pavement where it can cause frost heaving and early failure.

How much does asphalt paving cost in Coram?

Residential driveways typically range from $3-7 per square foot depending on site conditions, thickness requirements, and base work needed. Commercial projects vary more based on specifications and access requirements. The cheapest bid usually means corners will be cut on base preparation or material quality. We provide detailed estimates that explain what’s included so you can compare properly. Investing in quality work upfront costs less than redoing failed pavement in a few years.

When should I repair versus replace my asphalt driveway?

If you have isolated cracks or small potholes, repairs often make sense. But if more than 30% of your pavement has problems, or if there are drainage issues causing repeated failures, replacement is usually more cost-effective. We’ll assess your specific situation honestly – sometimes a good repair job buys you several more years, and sometimes it’s just throwing money at a problem that needs a real solution. Age matters too – asphalt over 15-20 years old often needs replacement rather than ongoing repairs.

Do you handle commercial parking lot paving?

Yes, we handle commercial asphalt projects including parking lots, loading areas, and access roads. Commercial work requires different planning than residential – we coordinate with your business schedule to minimize disruption and handle the heavier traffic loads and different drainage requirements. We’re familiar with ADA compliance requirements and proper striping layouts. Commercial projects also need ongoing maintenance planning, and we can set up regular seal coating and repair schedules to protect your investment.

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

Asphalt costs less upfront and handles freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete in Long Island’s climate. It’s also easier to repair if problems develop. Concrete lasts longer but costs significantly more and can crack badly in cold weather if not installed perfectly. For most Long Island properties, properly installed asphalt provides better value – it looks professional, handles the weather, and doesn’t require the major investment that concrete demands. The key with either material is proper installation, but asphalt is more forgiving of minor settlement issues.
