Asphalt Driveway Installation Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, the existing surface gets properly removed and disposed of. No shortcuts here – old, failed pavement has to go completely or it’ll cause problems later.

Next comes proper grading and base preparation. This step determines whether your driveway lasts 5 years or 20 years. The base gets compacted correctly and drainage gets addressed so water moves away from your foundation.

Then fresh asphalt gets installed in the right thickness for your specific situation. Heavy traffic areas get reinforced. Edges get sealed properly. The surface gets rolled smooth and even.

You get a driveway that’s ready to handle whatever you throw at it – from daily commuting to holiday gatherings with extra cars.

Most residential driveways in Commack take 1-2 days to complete, depending on size and complexity. Day one typically involves removal of old pavement and base preparation. Day two covers asphalt installation and finishing work. Weather can affect timing – asphalt needs dry conditions and temperatures above 50 degrees for proper installation. Larger driveways or those requiring significant drainage work may take an additional day. You can usually drive on your new driveway within 24-48 hours, though heavy vehicles should wait a full week.
Asphalt repair works when you have isolated cracks or small potholes in otherwise sound pavement. It’s cost-effective for driveways less than 10 years old with minor damage. Full replacement becomes necessary when you have widespread cracking, significant settling, drainage problems, or pavement that’s simply worn out. If more than 30% of your driveway needs repair, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles are particularly hard on patched areas, so extensive repairs often fail within a few years anyway.
Residential paving costs in Commack typically range from $3-7 per square foot for complete replacement, depending on your driveway’s size, condition, and any additional work needed. Factors affecting price include removal requirements, base preparation needs, drainage improvements, and site accessibility. A standard two-car driveway usually runs $2,500-6,000 for complete replacement. Repair costs vary widely based on damage extent. All Purpose Paving provides written estimates that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins.
Properly installed asphalt driveways handle Long Island winters very well when they’re built with the right base preparation and drainage. The key is using the correct asphalt mix for our climate and ensuring water drains away rather than pooling and freezing. Freeze-thaw cycles cause the most damage when water gets under the pavement through cracks or poor edges. Quality installation includes proper compaction, adequate thickness, and sealed edges that prevent water infiltration. Most winter damage comes from deicing salt and snow plows, which is why proper surface preparation and quality materials matter so much.
Most residential driveway replacement projects in Commack don’t require permits when you’re staying within existing boundaries and not changing drainage patterns. However, projects involving new connections to town roads, significant grade changes, or drainage modifications may need permits. All Purpose Paving handles permit applications when required and ensures all work meets local codes. We know Commack’s requirements and work with town officials regularly. If your project needs permits, that gets factored into the timeline and communicated upfront so there are no surprises during the process.
All Purpose Paving provides written warranties covering both materials and workmanship on residential paving projects. Warranty terms depend on the specific work performed, but typically cover defects in installation and premature failure due to workmanship issues. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from heavy vehicles, settling due to underground utilities, or normal wear from deicing chemicals. All warranty terms get spelled out clearly in your contract before work begins. We have been serving Long Island long enough that warranty claims get handled promptly and professionally when legitimate issues arise.
