Your driveway takes a beating from Yardville’s hot summers and freezing winters. Cheap work fails fast, leaving you with cracks, potholes, and expensive repairs.
Quality installation means proper base preparation, correct material thickness, and attention to drainage. When it’s done right, you get smooth, durable asphalt that handles weather extremes and heavy use without breaking down.
You’ll drive over solid pavement for years instead of dodging potholes and scheduling constant repairs.
We’ve been handling Yardville’s paving challenges since 1948. Three generations of experience means we understand how New Jersey’s climate affects asphalt and what it takes to build surfaces that last.

We start with a thorough site evaluation to identify drainage issues and determine the right approach for your specific property. You’ll know exactly what needs to be done and what it costs before any work begins.
Base preparation comes first—proper grading and compaction that prevent future settling and cracking. We use the right asphalt thickness for your application, whether it’s residential traffic or heavy commercial use.
Installation follows proven techniques with attention to edges, joints, and proper compaction. You’ll get clear updates throughout the process and a final walkthrough to ensure everything meets your expectations.

Properly installed asphalt in Yardville typically lasts 15-20 years with regular maintenance. New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are hard on pavement, but quality installation with proper base preparation and drainage extends lifespan significantly.
The key factors are using adequate thickness for your traffic load, ensuring proper compaction, and maintaining good drainage. Sealcoating every 3-4 years adds protection against water infiltration and UV damage. Cheap installations often fail within 5-7 years because corners were cut on base preparation or material quality.
Overlay involves placing new asphalt over existing pavement, while replacement means removing the old surface and starting fresh. The right choice depends on your current pavement’s condition and base stability.
Overlay works when the existing base is solid but the surface is worn or has minor cracking. It’s more cost-effective and faster. Complete replacement is necessary when there’s significant settling, major cracking, or base failure—problems that overlay won’t fix.
We evaluate drainage, base condition, and structural integrity to recommend the approach that gives you the best long-term value. Sometimes spending more upfront for replacement saves money over time by avoiding repeated repairs.
Proper drainage is critical for asphalt longevity in Yardville’s climate. Water that can’t drain away causes base erosion, frost heaving, and premature pavement failure.
We evaluate existing drainage patterns and grade the base to direct water away from structures and toward appropriate outlets. This might involve installing catch basins, adjusting slopes, or creating drainage swales. The goal is keeping water moving, not pooling under or on your pavement.
Poor drainage is one of the main reasons asphalt fails early. Addressing these issues during installation prevents expensive repairs later and ensures your pavement handles New Jersey’s heavy rains and snow melt effectively.
The process typically takes 1-3 days depending on project size and complexity. We start with site preparation, which may involve removing old pavement, grading, and base work. This is often the longest phase but critical for quality results.
Asphalt installation happens quickly once prep is complete, usually within a day. You’ll need to avoid the area during installation and curing. We provide clear timelines and keep you updated on progress throughout the project.
Weather affects scheduling—we don’t install asphalt in rain or when temperatures are too low. We’ll communicate any delays immediately and work with your schedule to minimize disruption. Most residential driveways are ready for light traffic within 24-48 hours.
Yes, we provide ongoing maintenance including sealcoating, crack filling, and minor repairs. Regular maintenance is the most cost-effective way to protect your asphalt investment and extend its lifespan.
Sealcoating every 3-4 years protects against water infiltration, UV damage, and chemical spills. We address small cracks before they become major problems that require expensive repairs or replacement. Think of it like regular maintenance on your car—small investments prevent big problems.
We keep records of your installation details and maintenance history, making it easy to schedule services at the right intervals. Many clients prefer our maintenance programs that provide scheduled service and priority scheduling for any needed repairs.
Temperature and moisture are crucial factors for successful asphalt installation. We need air temperatures above 50°F and dry conditions for proper compaction and curing. New Jersey’s variable weather means timing is important.
Spring and fall offer the best conditions, though we work through summer when temperatures allow. We don’t install during rain, snow, or when ground is frozen. Rushing installation in poor conditions leads to problems like poor compaction, premature cracking, and reduced lifespan.
We monitor weather forecasts carefully and communicate any scheduling adjustments immediately. It’s better to wait for proper conditions than compromise quality. Your patience during weather delays ensures you get asphalt that performs well through all of Yardville’s seasonal challenges.
