Six years. We use our own crew and our own equipment.
Estimates & pricing
Are estimates free? Can you quote from photos?
Every estimate is free. We do need to see the property in person to give you an accurate quote, so we’ll set up a quick site visit.
How much does a driveway cost?
There’s no average price because every job is different. Our driveways have ranged from about $6,500 to over $100,000. The site visit is how we get you a real number.
What affects the price of a paving project?
The size of the area, the slope, the condition of the existing surface, how much grading and base work is needed, and site access all play a part. We’ll go over those details during your free site visit.
Scheduling & the job
When do you pave, and how far out are you booked?
We pave year round and are usually booked 2 to 4 weeks out.
How long does a driveway take?
It depends on the size, but about 85% of our driveways are finished in a single day.
Does red clay or rain affect paving?
Red clay isn’t a problem for us. Rain is. If the ground is wet, we’ll move your job back until it dries out so it’s done right.
Services & common issues
How thick is your asphalt, and what goes under it?
Our driveways are typically laid 3 inches thick over a gravel base. We make sure that base is properly compacted and meets required compaction rates before any asphalt goes down.
How long will a new driveway last?
With good care, 15 to 20 years. After every job, we make sure you know exactly how to take care of it.
Do you also do repairs, resurfacing, sealcoating, or striping?
Yes. Along with new paving and grading, we handle repairs, resurfacing, sealcoating, striping and gravel driveways.
Can you turn a gravel driveway into asphalt?
Yes. Converting gravel to asphalt starts with grading and a compacted base so the new surface drains properly and stays smooth.
Do you offer grading without paving?
Yes. We handle grading as a standalone project or as the first step of a new asphalt installation, for driveways, parking areas, and building sites.
