Driveway Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your current driveway and drainage situation. We measure, check the base, and identify any issues that need addressing before new asphalt goes down. You get a clear estimate with no surprises.

Next, we prep the area properly. This means removing old asphalt if needed, grading for proper drainage, and ensuring the base can support the new surface. Shortcuts here cause problems later, so we don’t take them.

Then we install your new asphalt using professional equipment that creates a smooth, even surface. We handle the details like proper compaction and edge work. After everything cures, we clean up completely and walk through the finished project with you.

What's Included In Your Paving Project

Every residential paving job includes proper site preparation, professional-grade asphalt installation, and complete cleanup. We handle permits if needed and coordinate with local requirements in Brookhaven.

You get drainage solutions designed for your specific property. Long Island gets serious rain, and your driveway needs to handle it without creating problems for your foundation or landscaping. We grade everything properly from the start.

We use quality materials that work in this climate. The asphalt mix we install can handle freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, and the salt trucks that come through every winter. Your driveway gets built to last, not just look good for the first year.

How long does a residential driveway paving project take to complete?

Most residential driveway projects in Brookhaven take 1-3 days depending on size and scope. Simple asphalt installation on an existing base usually wraps up in one day. Projects requiring excavation, new base material, or drainage work take longer. We give you a realistic timeline upfront and stick to it. Weather can affect scheduling since asphalt needs proper conditions to cure correctly, but we communicate any delays immediately and work around your schedule whenever possible.

What's the difference between asphalt repair and full driveway replacement?

Asphalt repair works when you have isolated cracks or small potholes but the overall driveway structure is sound. We can patch problem areas, seal cracks, and extend your current driveway’s life significantly. Full replacement makes sense when the base has failed, drainage issues exist, or more than 30% of the surface needs repair. During our assessment, we’ll be honest about which approach gives you better long-term value. Sometimes spending a bit more upfront saves you from repeated repair calls.

How do you handle drainage issues during driveway installation?

Proper drainage starts with correct grading during installation. We slope your driveway so water flows away from your home and doesn’t pool anywhere on the surface. If your property has challenging drainage, we can install catch basins, drainage pipes, or adjust the grade to direct water where it needs to go. Long Island clay soil can create drainage challenges, but we’ve handled these issues many times. We address drainage problems during installation rather than hoping they’ll resolve themselves later.

What type of asphalt do you use for residential driveways?

We use hot mix asphalt designed for Long Island’s climate conditions. The mix includes the right aggregate size and binder content to handle freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, and regular traffic. We don’t use recycled asphalt millings or cold patch materials for new installations because they don’t provide the durability homeowners need. The asphalt we install meets local specifications and comes from established suppliers. We can explain the technical details, but the bottom line is you get materials that perform well over time.

How soon can I drive on my new asphalt driveway?

You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours, but we recommend waiting at least 24 hours for light vehicles. Heavy trucks or equipment should stay off for 72 hours minimum. Hot weather extends curing time, while cooler temperatures allow earlier use. We’ll give you specific guidance based on weather conditions and your project details. Rushing this process can damage the surface, so it’s worth waiting. We’ll let you know exactly when it’s safe to resume normal use.

Do you provide warranties on residential paving work?

Yes, we warranty our residential paving work because we stand behind the quality of our installation. Warranty terms depend on the specific project and materials used, but we cover defects in workmanship and premature failure due to installation issues. Normal wear from traffic, weather, and time isn’t covered, but problems caused by our work are. We explain warranty details before starting any project so you know exactly what’s covered. Most issues, if they occur, show up within the first year, and we address them promptly.
