Most residential driveways take 2-4 days from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. Day one typically involves excavation and base preparation. Day two covers asphalt installation. Additional time may be needed for drainage work or if weather doesn’t cooperate. You can usually drive on your new driveway within 24-48 hours, though it’s best to avoid heavy vehicles for the first week while the asphalt fully cures.
Quality paving starts with proper base preparation – excavating to the right depth and using the correct aggregate materials. Cheap jobs often skip this step, leading to premature cracking and settling. Quality contractors also use better asphalt mix and proper compaction techniques. The result is a driveway that lasts 15-20 years instead of needing major repairs in 3-5 years. You’re not just paying for materials; you’re investing in proper installation methods that save money long-term.
Residential driveway paving typically ranges from $3-7 per square foot, depending on size, complexity, and current conditions. A standard two-car driveway might cost $2,500-6,000. Factors affecting price include excavation depth needed, drainage requirements, and accessibility. Removing old asphalt adds to the cost, as does any necessary drainage work. The best approach is getting a detailed written estimate that breaks down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for asphalt paving. Temperatures should be consistently above 50°F for proper installation and curing. Summer months are ideal, but spring and fall work well too if weather cooperates. Winter paving is possible but not recommended due to temperature constraints and curing issues. Planning your project for warmer months also means better scheduling flexibility and optimal conditions for the asphalt to properly bond and cure.
Most driveway repaving projects don’t require permits if you’re staying within existing boundaries. However, expanding your driveway, changing drainage patterns, or connecting to town roads may require permits from the Town of Babylon. New driveways typically need permits and must meet setback requirements. A reputable contractor will know local requirements and can handle permit applications if needed. It’s always worth checking with the building department if you’re unsure about your specific situation.
Seal coating every 2-3 years protects against weather and extends driveway life. Keep the surface clean and address oil stains promptly. Avoid parking heavy vehicles in the same spot repeatedly, especially when it’s hot. Fill small cracks quickly before they become bigger problems. Good drainage maintenance is crucial – keep gutters and drainage areas clear. Winter care includes using ice melt products safe for asphalt and avoiding metal snow shovels that can scratch the surface.
