Asphalt Driveway Installation Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess your current driveway situation and drainage needs. We measure, check grades, and identify any underlying issues that need addressing before new asphalt goes down.

Next comes excavation and base preparation. This is where most problems start if it’s done wrong. We remove old material, grade for proper drainage, and install a solid stone base that won’t shift over time.

Then we install the asphalt in proper lifts, compact it correctly, and ensure smooth transitions to your garage and street. We handle cleanup and make sure you can use your driveway as soon as it’s safe to do so.

Everything You Need Is Covered

Your residential paving project includes proper excavation, stone base installation, and quality asphalt application. We handle all permits and inspections required in Farmingville and surrounding areas.

You get proper drainage grading so water flows away from your foundation and doesn’t pool on the surface. We also handle the transitions to your existing walkways, garage, and street connections.

The project includes cleanup and disposal of old materials. We coordinate with local suppliers who understand Long Island conditions and provide materials that perform well in our climate.

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

Most residential driveway installations take 2-3 days from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. Day one typically involves excavation and base preparation. Day two covers asphalt installation and finishing. You can usually park on your new driveway within 24-48 hours, but we recommend waiting a full week before heavy vehicles or turning wheels while stationary. Weather can affect timing, especially during Long Island’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons.

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

Asphalt repair works when you have isolated cracks or small damaged areas on an otherwise solid base. We can patch these areas and seal the surface to extend life. Full replacement becomes necessary when the base has failed, causing widespread cracking, settling, or drainage problems. If more than 30% of your driveway needs repair, or if water is pooling regularly, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing patch work.

How do you handle drainage issues during driveway installation?

Proper drainage starts with correct grading during excavation. We slope the driveway away from your foundation and garage, typically at a 2% grade minimum. If your property has challenging drainage, we may recommend catch basins or additional grading work. Long Island’s clay soil can create drainage challenges, so we often install deeper stone bases in problem areas. Getting drainage right during installation prevents the water damage and foundation issues that plague many older driveways.

What type of asphalt do you use for residential driveways?

We use hot mix asphalt specifically designed for residential applications, typically a 9.5mm or 12.5mm mix depending on your driveway’s traffic patterns and base conditions. This provides the right balance of durability and smooth finish for home use. The asphalt comes from local Long Island suppliers who understand our climate requirements. We avoid recycled mixes for new installations because they don’t provide the longevity most homeowners expect from a significant investment like driveway replacement.

Do you handle permits and inspections for driveway work in Farmingville?

Yes, we handle all required permits and coordinate inspections with Brookhaven Town when necessary. Most driveway replacements within existing footprints don’t require permits, but any work affecting drainage, expanding the driveway, or connecting to town roads may need approval. We know the local requirements and handle the paperwork so you don’t have to navigate town offices or worry about compliance issues. This is included in our service – not an extra charge.

How long should I expect my new asphalt driveway to last?

A properly installed asphalt driveway should last 15-20 years with basic maintenance like occasional sealcoating. Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles are tough on pavement, but quality installation with proper base preparation handles these conditions well. The key factors are using adequate base depth, proper drainage, and quality asphalt mix. Most premature failures happen because corners were cut during installation, not because of material problems. Regular sealcoating every 3-5 years helps protect the surface and extend life.
