Our Installation Process
Every step matters when building a surface that lasts.
Site Assessment & Planning
We visit your property to evaluate the site, check drainage patterns, and discuss your goals. This helps us plan properly and give you an accurate quote.
Excavation & Grading
We remove any existing surface and excavate to the proper depth. We grade the site to ensure proper drainage away from your home and foundation.
Base Preparation
A proper base is critical for longevity. We install compacted aggregate sub-base and, where needed, geotextile fabric to prevent settling and shifting.
Surface Installation
Our experienced crew installs your chosen surface material with precision. For asphalt, we use proper compaction equipment. For pavers, we ensure perfect alignment.
Finishing & Cleanup
We edge all boundaries, apply sealants if applicable, and clean up the site thoroughly. We do a final walkthrough with you to ensure satisfaction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about residential paving.
Most residential driveway installations are completed in 1-3 days, depending on the size and complexity. We provide a detailed timeline during the quoting phase. Weather and site conditions can affect the schedule, but we always communicate any changes promptly.
For asphalt, we recommend waiting 24-48 hours before driving on it. For concrete and pavers, curing times vary — we'll provide specific guidelines based on your installation. We can often complete projects with minimal downtime for you.
All quality materials can work well with proper installation. Asphalt is very popular because it's flexible enough to handle freeze-thaw cycles. Concrete pavers are also excellent and can be replaced individually if damaged. We can help you choose based on your specific situation, budget, and preferences.
For asphalt, we strongly recommend sealing after installation to protect against UV rays, oil spills, and water damage. This typically happens about 6-12 months after installation. For pavers, sealing helps prevent staining and keeps colors vibrant. We'll discuss all maintenance options with you.
