When it's time for a new driveway
Gravel that ends up in the ditch after every storm. Ruts you steer around. An old asphalt drive that's more patch than driveway.
Water is what finishes a driveway off. It gets into the cracks, freezes, and pries them wider, and by spring the cracks are potholes. A new asphalt driveway, graded so water runs off instead of sitting, starts that clock over.
Is asphalt right for your driveway?
Asphalt makes sense when
- You want a smooth, finished surface up by the house.
- Delivery trucks, a camper or a work truck use it regularly.
- You'll sealcoat it every 2 to 3 years to protect it.
- You want it done in days. Most residential driveways take 1 to 3.
Look at something else when
- It's a long rural lane and cost per foot matters most. Tar and chip costs less.
- Your asphalt is sound with only small cracks. Sealcoating or crack filling may be all it needs.
What's included in a new driveway
The base and drainage, checked first.If the ground stays soft or water sits on it, that gets fixed before asphalt goes down, or the new surface won't last.

Hot asphalt, laid and rolled.
Cure instructions before the crew leaves.Stay off it for 24 to 48 hours.

Commercial & residential paving
Driveways are most of this page, but driveway and parking lot paving come down to the same work, and the same crews pave lots for business owners and property managers. Lots need the same things a driveway does: a sound base, drainage that works, and asphalt laid and rolled right. They also need a schedule that keeps your doors open.

Driveway paving questions
How long does paving take?
Usually 1 to 3 days for a residential driveway. Larger projects take longer.
When can I drive on it?
Wait 24 to 48 hours before driving on it.
When should new asphalt be sealcoated?
Not right away. New asphalt needs time to cure before its first coat, so ask how long for yours. The sealcoating page covers the schedule after that.
What does an asphalt driveway cost?
It depends on the size, the base, the slope and how easy it is to get equipment in. The estimate is free, and it gives you a number for your driveway instead of an average off the internet.
Should I get tar and chip instead?
On a long rural drive with light traffic, it's worth a look. Four questions on the tar and chip page will tell you.
Do you pave parking lots too?
Yes. See the commercial section above, or parking lot paving for the full story.
