  • When can we drive on our new driveway?

    We recommend waiting at least 12 hours before driving on a newly paved driveway to allow the asphalt to set. However, full curing typically takes 8 to 12 months, depending on temperature and weather conditions. During the first year, we advise caution: avoid turning wheels while stationary, vary your parking spot, and be mindful of pointed objects that could cause depressions. For sealcoating, a minimum 24-hour drying period is necessary before any traffic is allowed.
  • What are some of the causes of asphalt to deteriorate?

    Asphalt deterioration can occur due to several factors. Raveling is caused by sunlight and UV rays, which make the asphalt brittle, leading to surface crumbling. Cracking results from temperature variations and expansive soils. Alligatoring happens when water enters cracks and erodes the sub-grade, causing unstable pavement. Potholes form as a result of advanced alligatoring, where pieces of pavement break away. These issues highlight the importance of regular maintenance to preserve pavement integrity.
  • How long will a new asphalt driveway or parking lot last?

    A properly designed and installed asphalt surface typically has a lifespan of about 25 years. However, factors such as weather conditions, traffic volume, and vehicle weight can affect its longevity. Regular maintenance is crucial for extending the life of your paved surface and preventing costly repairs.
  • Do you offer a warranty?

    Yes, we provide a warranty for our work. Our warranty covers materials and workmanship for all new paving, repairs, and sealcoating for a period of one year. Upon completion of the work, we will provide you with a warranty letter detailing the terms.
  • Do you recommend I sealcoat my asphalt driveway?

    We highly recommend sealcoating your asphalt driveway. This cost-effective measure not only extends the lifespan of your asphalt but also protects it from various elements including rain, snow, ice, and harmful UV rays. Additionally, sealcoating safeguards your driveway against potential damage from spills such as gas, oil, or antifreeze.
  • How often should I sealcoat my driveway?

    For optimal maintenance of your driveway, we recommend a program that includes crack-filling as needed and sealcoating every two years. This regular upkeep helps preserve the integrity and appearance of your asphalt surface.
