Smooth Surfaces That Last for Years

Your driveway or parking lot takes a beating from Long Island’s weather. Between the freeze-thaw cycles, salt exposure, and heavy rains, asphalt surfaces face real challenges here.

When asphalt work is done right, you get smooth surfaces that drain properly and resist cracking. No more worrying about potholes damaging vehicles or water pooling near your foundation. No more embarrassing first impressions from a deteriorating driveway.

Quality asphalt paving means fewer headaches down the road. You’ll have surfaces that look professional, function properly, and protect your property value. That’s what happens when the job is done with the right materials and proper techniques from the start.

Shirley Asphalt Contractors

Local Knowledge Makes the Difference

All Purpose Paving has been serving Shirley and the surrounding Long Island area with reliable asphalt services. We understand how local conditions affect pavement – from the soil composition to the weather patterns that cause premature failure.

You’re not getting a fly-by-night operation or someone learning on your property. We’ve seen what works here and what doesn’t. Our approach focuses on proper preparation, quality materials, and installation methods that account for Long Island’s unique challenges.

When you need asphalt work done, you want contractors who show up when promised and deliver results that last. That’s exactly what we provide to property owners throughout the area.

Asphalt Installation Process

Straightforward Process, Professional Results

Every asphalt project starts with proper site evaluation and preparation. We assess drainage, soil conditions, and existing surfaces to determine the right approach for your specific situation.

The foundation work is critical. We excavate to the proper depth, install appropriate base materials, and ensure proper grading for water runoff. Shortcuts here cause problems later, so we don’t take them.

Once the base is ready, we apply the asphalt using proper temperatures and compaction techniques. The surface is rolled and finished to create smooth, durable pavement that’s ready for use. You’ll know exactly what to expect and when each phase will happen.

Complete Asphalt Services

Everything Your Property Needs

We handle both residential driveways and commercial parking lots. Whether you need a new installation, major repairs, or routine maintenance, we have the equipment and experience to do it right.

For residential properties, we work around your schedule and minimize disruption to your daily routine. Commercial clients get coordinated scheduling that keeps their business operations running smoothly.

Our services include crack sealing, pothole repair, sealcoating, and complete resurfacing. We use quality materials designed for Long Island conditions and provide clear timelines so you know what to expect. Every project gets the same attention to detail, regardless of size.

How long does asphalt paving take to complete?

Most residential driveways can be completed in one to two days, depending on size and complexity. Commercial projects vary based on square footage and site conditions. Weather plays a role too – we won’t install asphalt in wet conditions or when temperatures are too low. The actual paving happens quickly, but proper preparation takes time. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you informed if anything changes. New asphalt needs 24-48 hours before you can drive on it safely.

What's the difference between asphalt repair and replacement?

Repair works when you have isolated problem areas like cracks or small potholes. We can patch these spots and extend the life of your existing pavement. Replacement becomes necessary when the damage is widespread or the base has failed. Signs you need replacement include extensive cracking, multiple potholes, or areas where the asphalt is breaking apart. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective approach. Sometimes spending a bit more upfront for replacement saves money in the long run.

How do I know if my asphalt can be repaired or needs replacement?

Look at the overall condition and extent of damage. Small cracks and minor surface issues can usually be repaired effectively. But if you’re seeing alligator cracking, multiple potholes, or areas where the pavement is sinking, replacement is likely your best option. Age matters too – asphalt typically lasts 15-20 years with proper maintenance. We can evaluate your pavement and explain your options clearly. Our goal is to recommend what makes the most sense for your situation and budget, not oversell services you don’t need.

What should I expect to pay for asphalt work?

Pricing depends on the scope of work, site conditions, and materials required. Simple repairs cost less than full replacement, and residential driveways are different from commercial lots. We provide written estimates that break down the work and materials so you understand what you’re paying for. No surprises or hidden fees. Factors that affect cost include excavation requirements, base preparation needs, and accessibility of the site. We’ll walk through your specific project and give you a fair, competitive price for quality work.

When is the best time of year for asphalt work?

Spring through fall offers the best conditions for asphalt installation. We need temperatures above 50 degrees and dry conditions for proper installation and curing. Summer and early fall are ideal because the asphalt stays workable longer and cures properly. Winter work is possible for emergency repairs, but full installations work better in warmer months. We’ll schedule your project during optimal conditions to ensure the best results. Planning ahead helps you get the timing that works best for your schedule and the weather.

How long will my new asphalt last?

Properly installed asphalt typically lasts 15-20 years with appropriate maintenance. Long Island’s climate can be tough on pavement, but quality installation and materials make a big difference. Regular maintenance like crack sealing and sealcoating every few years extends the life significantly. Heavy traffic, poor drainage, and deferred maintenance shorten lifespan. We install asphalt designed for local conditions and provide guidance on maintaining your investment. The key is starting with proper installation – shortcuts during construction lead to premature failure and costly repairs.
