How We Handle Your Driveway Project

First, we assess your current driveway and discuss what you need. We look at drainage, base conditions, and any specific concerns you have about the project.

Next comes preparation – the most important part most contractors rush through. We excavate to proper depth, grade for drainage, and install the right base material. This foundation work determines how long your driveway lasts.

Then we install the asphalt using professional-grade equipment and materials designed for residential applications. We compact properly, ensure smooth transitions, and clean up completely. You get a driveway that looks professional and performs for decades.

A properly installed asphalt driveway typically lasts 15-20 years in Long Island’s climate, sometimes longer with good maintenance. The key is proper base preparation and using the right asphalt mix for our freeze-thaw conditions. Driveways that fail early usually have base problems or were installed with shortcuts. Quality installation costs more upfront but saves thousands in premature replacement costs.
The biggest difference is base preparation and material quality. Cheap jobs skip proper excavation, use inadequate base material, or apply asphalt too thin. Quality work includes proper depth excavation, quality stone base, and adequate asphalt thickness. You’ll pay 30-40% more for quality work, but you’ll get a driveway that lasts twice as long and looks professional throughout its life.
Drainage is critical in Long Island’s clay soil conditions. We grade the driveway surface and base to direct water away from your home and prevent pooling. This might include adjusting the slope, installing catch basins, or connecting to existing drainage systems. Poor drainage destroys driveways from underneath, so we address it during the base preparation phase, not as an afterthought.
It depends on the condition of your existing driveway and base. If the current asphalt is structurally sound with minor surface issues, an overlay might work. But if there are base problems, drainage issues, or significant cracking, complete removal and replacement is the better long-term solution. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the approach that gives you the best value.
Late spring through early fall provides the best conditions for asphalt paving. We need temperatures consistently above 50 degrees for proper asphalt installation and curing. Summer and early fall are ideal because the asphalt stays workable longer and compacts better. We can work in cooler weather with adjustments, but extreme cold or wet conditions mean waiting for better weather to ensure quality results.
You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours, depending on weather conditions and asphalt thickness. We recommend waiting at least 24 hours before any vehicle traffic and avoiding heavy trucks for the first week. Hot weather requires longer curing time, while cooler temperatures allow earlier use. We’ll give you specific guidance based on the conditions during your installation.
