What You Get With Us

Your driveway or parking lot will handle whatever Long Island weather throws at it. No more dealing with cracks that turn into potholes every spring, or surfaces that look worn out after just a few years.

You get asphalt that’s properly installed from the ground up. That means correct base preparation, quality materials, and installation techniques that account for our freeze-thaw cycles and heavy traffic patterns.

The result is a surface that maintains its appearance and structural integrity for years, not months. You’ll spend less time worrying about repairs and more time enjoying a property that looks professional and well-maintained.

We Know Long Island Asphalt

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

Long Island’s climate is tough on asphalt. The freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rains, and temperature swings require specific approaches to base preparation, material selection, and installation timing. We’ve learned these lessons through experience, not guesswork.

Our team uses commercial-grade equipment and materials on every project, whether it’s a residential driveway or a large commercial parking lot. We’re licensed, insured, and committed to doing the work right the first time.

How We Handle Your Project

First, we evaluate your site and discuss your specific needs. We’ll explain what we see, what needs to be done, and provide a clear estimate with no surprises.

Next comes proper preparation. This is where many contractors cut corners, but it’s the most critical step. We excavate to the proper depth, address any drainage issues, and install a solid base that can handle the load and weather conditions.

Then we install the asphalt using the right materials and techniques for your specific application. We pay attention to proper compaction, joint sealing, and finishing details that make the difference between a job that lasts and one that fails prematurely.

Complete Asphalt Solutions

We handle everything from new driveway installation to major commercial parking lot projects. Our services include asphalt paving, repair, crack sealing, sealcoating, and ongoing maintenance.

For residential customers, we focus on driveways that enhance your property’s appearance and value. We understand that your driveway is often the first thing people notice about your home, so we make sure it looks professional and lasts.

Commercial clients get the same attention to quality, plus we understand the importance of minimizing disruption to your business operations. We work efficiently and can often complete projects in phases to keep your facility accessible to customers and employees.

How long does asphalt paving take to complete?

Most residential driveways take 1-2 days to complete, depending on size and complexity. The first day typically involves excavation and base preparation, with asphalt installation on the second day. Commercial projects vary based on size but we provide realistic timelines upfront. Weather can affect scheduling, especially during spring and fall when temperature swings are common. We’ll keep you informed throughout the process and won’t start a project unless we can complete it properly.

What's the difference between asphalt repair and replacement?

Repair works when you have isolated problem areas like cracks or small sections of damage. We can patch these areas or do partial replacement if the base is still solid. Full replacement is needed when the asphalt has widespread cracking, the base has failed, or drainage issues have caused structural problems. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective approach. Sometimes spending a bit more on replacement saves money long-term compared to repeated repairs.

How do I know if my asphalt contractor is using quality materials?

Ask about the asphalt mix design and where materials come from. Quality contractors use hot mix asphalt from certified plants, not cold patch or inferior materials. The mix should be appropriate for your climate and traffic load. You should also see proper equipment – commercial-grade pavers and compactors, not just hand tools. A good contractor will explain their material choices and why they’re right for your project. Don’t hesitate to ask for specifics about thickness, base materials, and installation methods.

When is the best time to schedule asphalt work on Long Island?

Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for asphalt work. We need consistent temperatures above 50 degrees for proper installation and curing. Summer is ideal, but early fall can work well if weather cooperates. Avoid scheduling major work too late in the season – you don’t want to be caught with an unfinished project when winter arrives. Spring scheduling fills up quickly, so plan ahead. We’ll advise you on timing based on your specific project and current weather patterns.

How much should I expect to pay for asphalt paving?

Costs vary based on size, site conditions, and scope of work required. Residential driveways typically range from $3-7 per square foot, depending on thickness and base requirements. Commercial projects have different pricing structures based on size and complexity. Proper preparation work, drainage improvements, and site challenges can affect pricing. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs so you understand what you’re paying for. Remember that the lowest bid often means corners will be cut somewhere.

What maintenance does new asphalt require?

New asphalt should cure for at least 24-48 hours before normal use. Avoid heavy loads and sharp turns during the first few days. Long-term maintenance includes keeping the surface clean, addressing cracks promptly, and sealcoating every 2-3 years. Good drainage is critical – make sure water doesn’t pool on the surface. Watch for early signs of problems like small cracks or edge deterioration. Addressing issues early prevents major repairs later. We can provide ongoing maintenance services to keep your asphalt looking and performing its best.
