What You Get When It's Done Right

Your driveway becomes an asset instead of a headache. No more dodging potholes or explaining to guests why they need to park on the street. No more water pooling against your foundation every time it rains.

You get a smooth, properly graded surface that drains correctly and holds up to everything from delivery trucks to harsh winters. Your property value goes up, your maintenance costs go down, and you stop worrying about whether your driveway is going to embarrass you.

The difference between good asphalt work and cheap asphalt work shows up in year three. Good work still looks professional. Cheap work looks like a disaster zone that’s costing you more money.

We Know Long Island Asphalt

All Purpose Paving has been handling asphalt projects throughout North Patchogue and Suffolk County for years. We understand how Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles affect pavement, what drainage solutions work in our soil conditions, and how to build asphalt surfaces that last.

We’re not the guys who show up with a truck and wing it. We’re the contractors who know that proper base preparation matters more than anything else, that drainage planning prevents most future problems, and that using the right materials upfront saves you money long-term.

You’ll find our work on driveways and parking lots throughout the area because we do it right the first time.

Professional Asphalt Paving Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your site and discuss what you need. We look at drainage, existing conditions, and how you use the space. No surprises, no hidden issues discovered halfway through the job.

Next, we prepare the base properly. This means excavation to the right depth, proper grading for drainage, and compacting the foundation that your asphalt will sit on. Most problems with asphalt come from skipping steps here.

Then we install the asphalt using commercial-grade materials and equipment. We control thickness, temperature, and compaction to ensure a smooth, durable surface. The final result is a professionally finished driveway or parking area that’s ready to handle whatever you throw at it.

A properly installed asphalt driveway should last 15-20 years in Long Island’s climate with basic maintenance. The key factors are proper base preparation, adequate thickness, and good drainage. Driveways that fail early usually have problems with one of these three areas. Regular sealcoating every 3-5 years and prompt crack repair can extend the life even further. The freeze-thaw cycles we get here are tough on asphalt, but quality installation and materials handle it fine.
Asphalt costs less upfront, handles freeze-thaw cycles better, and is easier to repair. Concrete lasts longer but costs significantly more and can crack badly in our climate. For Long Island conditions, asphalt is usually the smarter choice. It’s more flexible, so it moves with ground changes without cracking. When repairs are needed, asphalt repairs blend in seamlessly. Concrete repairs are always visible. Asphalt also provides better traction in winter conditions.
Residential driveways need 2-3 inches of asphalt over a properly prepared base. The base is actually more important than asphalt thickness – it should be 6-8 inches of compacted gravel. Some contractors try to save money by skimping on base preparation or asphalt thickness, but this always leads to problems. Commercial areas with heavy traffic need thicker asphalt, but for normal residential use, 2-3 inches over a good base will handle cars, delivery trucks, and typical driveway use without issues.
Late spring through early fall is ideal for asphalt installation. We need temperatures consistently above 50 degrees for proper installation and curing. Summer is peak season, so scheduling early helps ensure availability. Fall installation works well because the asphalt has time to cure before winter stress. We can do emergency repairs in winter, but new installation should wait for proper weather. Spring installation after the last freeze gives you a full season for the asphalt to settle and cure properly.
If more than 30% of your driveway has cracks, potholes, or drainage issues, replacement usually makes more sense than patching. Widespread alligator cracking, major settling, or persistent drainage problems indicate base failure that repairs won’t fix. Small cracks, isolated potholes, or surface wear can often be repaired cost-effectively. We’ll assess your specific situation and give you honest advice about what makes financial sense. Sometimes a repair buys you a few more years while you plan for replacement.
New asphalt should cure for 6-12 months before sealcoating. After that, sealcoat every 3-5 years depending on traffic and weather exposure. Fill cracks promptly to prevent water infiltration and freeze damage. Keep the surface clean and remove oil stains quickly. Avoid heavy loads on hot days when asphalt is softer. Edge maintenance prevents grass and weeds from breaking down the sides. This basic maintenance schedule will maximize your asphalt’s lifespan and keep it looking professional.
