You’ll have clean, professional-looking asphalt that enhances your property value instead of detracting from it. More importantly, you’ll have peace of mind knowing the job was done right the first time with materials and techniques that actually work in our climate.

Asphalt Paving Process NY

How Professional Paving Actually Works

First, we evaluate your existing surface and drainage situation. Poor drainage kills asphalt faster than anything else, so we address that upfront rather than paving over problems.

Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This step determines whether your asphalt lasts five years or twenty. We compact the base correctly and ensure proper grading for water runoff.

Then we install the asphalt using commercial-grade equipment at the right temperature and thickness for your specific application. Whether it’s a residential driveway or commercial parking lot, the installation process matters.

Finally, we handle finishing details like edges, transitions, and cleanup. You’re left with professional-looking surfaces that function properly from day one.

Driveway Paving West Hills

Complete Paving Services

We handle both residential driveway paving and commercial asphalt projects throughout West Hills. Our services include new installation, complete reconstruction, and repairs for existing surfaces.

For driveways, we focus on proper slope and drainage to prevent water from reaching your foundation. We also ensure adequate thickness to handle your vehicles without premature cracking or rutting.

Commercial projects require different considerations – heavier traffic loads, ADA compliance, and minimal business disruption. We coordinate timing and staging to keep your operations running while delivering the durable surfaces your business needs.

Every project includes proper edge work, smooth transitions to existing surfaces, and thorough cleanup when we’re finished.

How long does asphalt paving take to complete?

Most residential driveways take one to two days depending on size and complexity. The actual paving happens in a few hours, but proper base preparation takes time. Commercial projects vary widely based on square footage and site conditions. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and stick to it. Weather can delay projects since asphalt needs proper conditions for installation, but we’ll communicate any changes immediately.

What's the difference between cheap and quality paving?

Quality paving starts with proper base preparation and drainage – steps that cheap contractors skip to save time and money. We excavate to proper depth, install and compact the base correctly, and ensure water flows away from the surface. Quality also means using the right asphalt thickness for your application and installing it at proper temperatures. Cheap jobs might look fine initially but fail within a few years, requiring expensive repairs or complete replacement.

How long should I wait before driving on new asphalt?

You can typically walk on new asphalt within a few hours, but wait at least 24-48 hours before driving on it. Heavy vehicles or turning wheels while stationary can leave marks on fresh asphalt, especially in hot weather. We’ll give you specific timing based on weather conditions and asphalt type. During the first few weeks, avoid parking in the same spots repeatedly and be gentle with sharp turns until the surface fully cures.

Do you handle permits and regulations for paving projects?

We handle permit requirements and ensure all work meets local codes and regulations. West Hills and Nassau County have specific requirements for drainage, setbacks, and surface materials that we’re familiar with. For commercial projects, we coordinate with local authorities regarding ADA compliance and any required inspections. You don’t need to worry about navigating municipal requirements – we take care of the paperwork and ensure everything is done legally and properly.

What happens if my new asphalt develops problems?

We stand behind our work and address any issues that arise from installation problems. However, most asphalt issues come from poor base preparation or drainage problems that we identify and fix before paving. We’ll explain what’s covered and what isn’t upfront, so there are no surprises. Proper maintenance like sealcoating every few years will extend your asphalt’s life significantly, and we can advise you on timing and options for that as well.

Can you pave over existing asphalt or do you always remove it?

It depends on the condition of your existing surface and the underlying base. If the current asphalt is structurally sound with minor surface issues, an overlay might work. But if there are drainage problems, base failures, or significant cracking, we’ll recommend complete removal and reconstruction. Paving over problems just postpones bigger issues and wastes your money. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the approach that gives you the best long-term results for your investment.
