You get a smooth, durable surface that handles New Jersey winters without cracking or settling. Your driveway or parking lot becomes an asset that actually adds value to your property instead of being a constant headache.
No more dodging potholes in your own driveway. No more explaining to customers why your parking lot looks like a war zone. Just a clean, professional surface that works the way it should—and keeps working for decades.
When we finish, you’ll have drainage that actually directs water away from your foundation, not toward it. Plus the peace of mind that comes from working with people who’ve been doing this since 1948 and still treat every job like it matters.
We’ve been serving Pottersville families and businesses since 1948. That’s three generations of learning what works in New Jersey’s tough climate—and what doesn’t.
We’re not the guys who show up, slap down some asphalt, and disappear. We focus on one job at a time because that’s how you ensure every detail gets the attention it deserves. From residential driveways to complex commercial projects, we bring the same level of care to every square foot.
Our approach is simple: treat every client like our most important client, communicate clearly throughout the process, and deliver work that stands the test of time. It’s why we have five-star reviews on Angie’s List and why so much of our business comes from referrals.
First, we come out and actually look at your property. Not just a quick glance—we assess drainage, measure everything properly, and identify any issues that need addressing before we start. You get a clear, written estimate with no surprises.
Next comes the prep work that most contractors rush through. We handle excavation, grading, and base preparation the right way because that’s what determines whether your asphalt lasts 5 years or 25 years. If there are drainage issues, we fix them now, not after problems start showing up.
Then we install your asphalt using the right thickness for your specific needs—not some one-size-fits-all approach. We compact everything properly, ensure smooth transitions, and clean up completely when we’re done. You’ll know exactly when you can walk on it and when you can drive on it.

We handle both residential driveway paving and commercial parking lot installation throughout Pottersville and the surrounding areas. Whether you need a basic driveway replacement or a complex industrial paving project with specialized drainage, we have the equipment and experience to get it done right.
Our services include complete site preparation, water management solutions, and grading work that ensures proper runoff. We work with hot mix asphalt designed specifically for New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles, and we know how to install it so it performs year after year.
Pottersville property owners choose us because we understand local conditions. We know how water moves through this area, what kind of base preparation works best with local soil conditions, and how to build surfaces that handle everything from daily commuter traffic to heavy delivery trucks. Plus, we offer special pricing for seniors, military personnel, and first-time customers because we believe quality paving should be accessible to everyone in our community.
Most residential driveways take 1-2 days to complete, while larger commercial projects typically require 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. The actual paving happens quickly, but proper preparation takes time.
We spend considerable time on excavation, grading, and base preparation because that’s what determines the longevity of your asphalt. Weather can affect timing—we won’t install asphalt in rain or when temperatures are too low because it compromises the final result.
You can usually walk on new asphalt within 24 hours, but we recommend waiting 3-5 days before driving on it, especially in warmer weather. This allows the asphalt to cure properly and reach full strength.
Asphalt is typically 30-40% less expensive than concrete upfront and performs better in New Jersey’s freeze-thaw climate. It’s more flexible, so it’s less likely to crack during temperature changes that are common in our area.
Concrete lasts longer but costs significantly more initially and takes longer to cure—you’ll wait about a week before you can drive on concrete versus a few days for asphalt. Asphalt is also easier and less expensive to repair when issues do arise.
For most Pottersville homeowners, asphalt offers the best combination of performance, cost, and practicality. It handles our winters well, looks professional, and can be maintained easily with periodic sealcoating every few years.
Residential driveway paving typically runs $5-12 per square foot installed, depending on site conditions, thickness requirements, and preparation needed. A standard two-car driveway usually costs between $3,000-8,000 total.
Commercial projects vary more widely based on size, traffic requirements, and site complexity. Larger projects often have lower per-square-foot costs due to economies of scale, while smaller jobs or those requiring extensive prep work cost more per square foot.
The biggest cost factors are excavation and base preparation, thickness requirements, drainage needs, and removal of existing pavement. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why.
Most residential driveway projects in Pottersville don’t require permits, but commercial projects and work that affects drainage or public right-of-way often do. We help determine what’s needed for your specific project.
When permits are required, we handle the application process and ensure all work meets local codes and regulations. This is especially important for commercial projects or residential work that involves significant grading changes.
It’s always better to check requirements upfront rather than deal with issues later. We’re familiar with local regulations and will make sure your project complies with all applicable codes from the start.
The ideal paving season in New Jersey runs from April through October when temperatures are consistently above 50°F. Asphalt needs warm weather to install and cure properly.
Spring and fall often offer the best combination of good weather and contractor availability. Summer is peak season, which can mean higher costs and longer scheduling delays, while late fall and winter installations aren’t recommended due to temperature constraints.
If you’re planning a paving project, it’s smart to schedule during the shoulder seasons when contractors have more availability and you’re not competing with peak demand. This often results in better scheduling flexibility and sometimes better pricing.
With proper installation and basic maintenance, a quality asphalt driveway in Pottersville typically lasts 15-25 years. The key factors are proper base preparation, appropriate thickness for your usage, and periodic maintenance like sealcoating.
New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are tough on pavement, but asphalt handles these conditions better than concrete when installed correctly. Regular sealcoating every 3-5 years and prompt repair of any cracks helps maximize lifespan.
The quality of the initial installation matters most. Proper drainage, adequate base preparation, and using the right asphalt mix for local conditions are what separate driveways that last decades from those that start failing within a few years.
