Home Paving Process Selden

How Your Driveway Gets Done Right

We start with proper site preparation. That means excavating to the right depth, addressing drainage issues, and creating a solid foundation. Most paving problems start here, so we don’t rush this step.

Next comes the base layer – compacted stone that distributes weight and prevents settling. We use the right materials for Long Island soil conditions and grade everything for proper water runoff.

The asphalt goes down hot and gets compacted immediately. We use commercial rollers to ensure proper density and finish with clean edges that look professional. The whole process typically takes 1-2 days depending on size and complexity.

Asphalt Driveway Installation Selden

What's Included In Every Project

Every residential paving job includes proper excavation, base preparation, and professional-grade asphalt installation. We handle permits if needed and coordinate with utility companies for any marking requirements.

You get proper drainage solutions designed for your specific property. Long Island’s clay soil and weather patterns require careful attention to water management, and we build that into every project.

We also include cleanup and disposal of old materials. Your property looks better than when we started, not like a construction zone. Final grading ensures smooth transitions to existing surfaces and proper water flow away from your foundation.

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 proper base preparation, quality materials, and professional installation. Our driveways are designed to handle freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow loads that are common here. Regular sealcoating every 3-4 years can extend the life even further. The upfront investment in quality installation pays off in fewer repairs and longer service life.

What's the best time of year to pave a driveway?

Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for asphalt paving in New York. We need temperatures consistently above 50 degrees for proper installation and curing. Summer is ideal because the asphalt stays workable longer and compacts better in warm weather. We can work in cooler weather if needed, but spring and summer projects typically have the best results. Winter paving is possible for emergency repairs but not ideal for full installations.

How much does residential paving cost in Selden?

Residential paving costs vary based on size, site conditions, and preparation needed. A typical residential driveway ranges from $3-7 per square foot installed, but every project is different. Factors that affect cost include excavation depth, drainage requirements, and access for equipment. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. The investment usually pays for itself in reduced maintenance and increased property value.

Do I need permits for driveway paving in Selden?

Most driveway replacement projects don’t require permits if you’re staying within existing boundaries. However, if you’re expanding the driveway, changing drainage patterns, or affecting public right-of-way, permits may be required. We handle permit applications when needed and coordinate with local authorities. We also arrange for utility marking before any excavation begins. Every project starts with checking local requirements so there are no surprises or delays once work begins.

How do I maintain my new asphalt driveway?

Basic maintenance keeps your driveway looking good and lasting longer. Sealcoat every 3-4 years to protect against water penetration and UV damage. Fill small cracks promptly before they become bigger problems. Keep the surface clean and remove oil stains quickly. Avoid heavy loads or sharp objects that can damage the surface while it’s still curing. We provide specific maintenance guidelines for your new driveway and can handle sealcoating when it’s time.

Can you repair my existing driveway instead of replacing it?

Sometimes repair makes sense, but not always. If your driveway has isolated cracks or small areas of damage, patching and repair can extend its life. However, if there are widespread cracks, settling, or base failure, replacement is usually more cost-effective long-term. We’ll honestly assess your existing driveway and recommend the best approach. Temporary fixes on failing driveways often end up costing more than doing it right the first time. We’ll show you what we’re seeing and explain your options.
