A properly installed driveway does more than just look good. You get smooth, crack-free surfaces that handle Pennsylvania weather without breaking down every few years.
Your neighbors notice. Potential buyers notice. Most importantly, you notice every time you pull into your driveway without dodging potholes or worrying about your car scraping bottom.
Quality asphalt installation means fewer repairs, better drainage, and a surface that actually improves your daily routine instead of creating problems.
We’ve been handling paving projects since 1948. That’s not just experience—that’s three generations of learning what works and what doesn’t in Pennsylvania’s challenging climate.
You won’t find us rushing between multiple job sites or cutting corners to squeeze in extra projects. We focus on one job at a time, treating your driveway with the same attention whether it’s a small residential project or a large commercial installation.
Feasterville homeowners choose us because the work gets done right the first time, with clear communication and no surprise charges along the way.
The process starts with evaluating your property’s specific needs—drainage, grading, and any unique challenges your driveway faces. No cookie-cutter approach here.
Proper preparation comes next. We handle excavation, grading, and base preparation to ensure your new driveway has a solid foundation. This step determines how long your driveway lasts, so it’s done right.
Quality asphalt gets installed using proven techniques that account for Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles. We take time to ensure proper compaction and finishing, so you get a smooth, durable surface that handles daily use and weather extremes.

Your driveway project includes everything needed for a professional installation. Proper excavation, base preparation, quality asphalt materials, and finishing work that creates smooth transitions to existing surfaces.
Feasterville properties often require custom drainage solutions due to the area’s terrain and weather patterns. We handle water management and grading to prevent pooling and direct water away from your foundation.
Each project includes cleanup and a final walkthrough to ensure everything meets your expectations. You also get straightforward maintenance recommendations to keep your new driveway looking and performing its best for years to come.
Most residential driveways take 2-3 days to complete, depending on size and complexity. Day one typically involves excavation and base preparation. Day two covers asphalt installation and initial compaction.
Weather plays a role in timing—asphalt installation requires dry conditions and temperatures above 50 degrees for optimal results. We monitor weather forecasts and schedule accordingly to ensure quality installation.
You can usually drive on your new driveway within 24-48 hours for light vehicles, but heavy trucks should be avoided for the first week while the asphalt fully cures.
Asphalt offers several advantages for Pennsylvania driveways. It handles freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete, reducing cracking from temperature changes. Asphalt also costs less initially and can be repaired more easily if damage occurs.
Concrete lasts longer but costs significantly more upfront and can crack from frost heaving—a common issue in this climate. When concrete cracks, repairs are more complex and often don’t match the original appearance.
For Feasterville’s climate and soil conditions, asphalt provides the best combination of durability, cost-effectiveness, and weather resistance for most residential properties.
Driveway paving costs depend on size, current condition, and any drainage or grading work needed. Most residential driveways in Feasterville range from $3-6 per square foot for quality asphalt installation.
Factors affecting price include excavation requirements, base thickness needed for your soil conditions, and any additional work like drainage improvements or connecting to existing surfaces. Properties with steep grades or poor drainage typically require additional preparation.
We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs upfront—no surprise charges or hidden fees. The estimate includes materials, labor, and any necessary preparation work specific to your property.
Most residential driveway replacements in Feasterville don’t require permits, but new driveways or significant expansions might need township approval. We handle permit research and applications when required.
Bucks County and local townships have specific requirements for drainage and setbacks that must be followed. We know these regulations and ensure all work meets local codes and standards.
For commercial projects or driveways connecting to public roads, additional permits and inspections are typically required. We coordinate with local authorities to ensure compliance throughout the project.
New asphalt driveways need minimal maintenance for the first few years. Avoid parking in the same spots repeatedly during the first month to prevent indentations while the asphalt fully hardens.
Sealcoating should be applied 12-18 months after installation, then every 3-4 years depending on traffic and weather exposure. This protects the surface from oxidation and extends the driveway’s lifespan significantly.
Small cracks should be sealed promptly to prevent water infiltration and freeze damage. Annual inspection for drainage issues or surface problems helps catch minor issues before they become major repairs.
Existing driveways can sometimes be paved over if the current surface is structurally sound and properly graded. However, removal often provides better long-term results, especially for driveways with drainage problems or significant damage.
Overlay installation saves on excavation costs but adds height to your driveway, which can create drainage issues or problems with garage clearance. We evaluate each situation to determine the best approach for your property.
Complete removal allows for proper base preparation, improved drainage, and optimal thickness for your soil conditions. While more expensive initially, removal and replacement typically provides better value and longer-lasting results.
