Residential Paving Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess your current driveway situation and discuss what you need. We measure the area, check drainage, and identify any underlying issues that need addressing before new asphalt goes down.

Next comes preparation. We remove old material if necessary, grade the surface properly, and install a solid base. This foundation work determines how long your driveway will last, so we don’t rush it.

Then we lay the asphalt using professional equipment that ensures even thickness and proper compaction. We pay attention to drainage slopes and create clean edges that look finished. The whole process typically takes one to two days, depending on your driveway size and complexity.

How long does a new asphalt driveway last in Long Island?

A properly installed asphalt driveway typically lasts 15-20 years in Long Island’s climate with basic maintenance. The key factors are quality installation with proper base preparation and occasional sealcoating every 3-5 years. Driveways that fail early usually have foundation issues or were installed without adequate base material. Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles are tough on asphalt, but when the job is done right with proper drainage, your driveway will handle the weather without major problems for decades.

What's the difference between asphalt and concrete for residential driveways?

Asphalt costs significantly less upfront and performs better in Long Island’s climate. Concrete can crack badly during freeze-thaw cycles, and repairs are expensive and obvious. Asphalt flexes with temperature changes and can be resurfaced when needed. It also looks more natural in most residential settings. Concrete does last longer in ideal conditions, but Long Island isn’t ideal conditions for concrete. Most homeowners find asphalt gives them better value and fewer headaches over time, especially when you factor in repair costs.

How much does residential driveway paving cost in East Moriches?

Driveway paving costs depend on size, current condition, and site-specific factors like drainage needs or accessibility. Most residential driveways in East Moriches range from $3-7 per square foot for quality installation. A typical two-car driveway runs $2,500-5,000 depending on length and width. Repairs and resurfacing cost less than full replacement. We provide detailed estimates after seeing your specific situation because every property is different. Beware of unusually low bids – they usually mean shortcuts on materials or preparation that cost you more later.

When is the best time of year to pave a driveway?

Late spring through early fall works best for asphalt installation. We need temperatures consistently above 50 degrees for proper asphalt curing. Summer and early fall are ideal because the asphalt stays workable longer and compacts better in warm weather. Winter paving is possible but not optimal. Spring scheduling fills up fast, so planning ahead helps you get the timing you want. Weather delays can happen, but we work with you to find windows that work for both the weather and your schedule.

Do I need permits for driveway paving in East Moriches?

Most driveway repaving projects don’t require permits if you’re staying within existing boundaries. New driveways or expansions usually need permits from the Town of Brookhaven. Changes that affect drainage or connect to town roads definitely need approval. We handle permit applications when they’re required and know the local requirements. It’s always better to check first rather than deal with violations later. The permit process typically adds 1-2 weeks to project timeline but protects you from future problems with the town.

How soon can I drive on a newly paved driveway?

You can typically drive on new asphalt after 24-48 hours, depending on weather conditions and asphalt thickness. Hot weather requires longer curing time. We recommend avoiding heavy vehicles or sharp turns for the first week to prevent scuffing. Parking is fine after the initial curing period, but try to avoid leaving cars in the same spot for extended periods during the first month. The asphalt continues hardening for several months, reaching full strength after a complete season cycle. We’ll give you specific guidance based on weather conditions when your project is completed.
