Hear From Our Clients
Your property deserves asphalt work that stands up to New York’s harsh winters and heavy use. When we complete your project, you get smooth surfaces that drain properly, resist cracking, and maintain their appearance for decades.
No more dealing with potholes every spring or watching your investment crumble after a few seasons. Our proven installation process and quality materials mean you can count on professional results that protect your property value and eliminate ongoing headaches.
You’ll have direct access to the owner throughout the entire process, ensuring clear communication and accountability from start to finish.
We’ve served Brayton and the surrounding region for over 25 years, building our reputation based on quality work and honest business practices. As an owner-operated company, we maintain direct involvement in every project, ensuring the level of care and attention that larger contractors simply can’t match.
Our deep roots in the local community mean we understand the specific challenges that New York’s climate presents to asphalt surfaces. We know when conditions are right for paving and when it’s better to focus on excavation or foundation work.
You’re not just hiring a contractor—you’re working with neighbors who have built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time.
We start with a thorough site assessment to identify any drainage issues or base problems that could cause future failures. Proper preparation is critical—we don’t cut corners on grading and base work because that’s what determines how long your asphalt will last.
Next, we handle all the excavation and base preparation using the right materials for your specific soil conditions and expected traffic load. Our crews know how to properly compact everything to prevent settling and premature cracking.
The paving itself is timed carefully around weather conditions to ensure optimal results. We use quality hot-mix asphalt applied at the correct temperature and thickness for your application, whether it’s a residential driveway or commercial parking lot.

Our asphalt services cover everything from small driveway repairs to large commercial parking lots. We handle new installations, resurfacing, patching, and emergency repairs with the same attention to quality and detail.
In Brayton’s climate, proper drainage is essential to prevent winter damage from freeze-thaw cycles. We design every project with appropriate slopes and drainage solutions to direct water away from your asphalt surfaces, extending their lifespan significantly.
During winter months when paving conditions aren’t optimal, we shift focus to excavation, foundation work, and land clearing projects. This year-round capability means you can count on us regardless of the season or your specific needs.
The optimal paving season in Brayton typically runs from late spring through early fall when temperatures consistently stay above 50°F during the day and above 40°F at night. These conditions allow the asphalt to properly compact and cure.
We don’t recommend paving during winter months or when rain is forecast within 24 hours of the project. Moisture can compromise the base and prevent proper bonding between asphalt layers.
If you need emergency repairs during colder months, we use specialized cold-patch materials as temporary solutions until proper hot-mix paving can be completed in warmer weather.
Most residential driveways can be completed in 1-2 days, depending on size and whether we’re doing new installation or resurfacing over existing pavement. Commercial projects typically take longer based on square footage and complexity.
The timeline includes excavation and base preparation on day one, followed by paving and finishing work. We always allow proper curing time before you can drive on the new surface—usually 24-48 hours for light vehicles.
Weather conditions can affect scheduling, which is why we monitor forecasts carefully and communicate any necessary adjustments well in advance.
Most cracking stems from poor base preparation, inadequate drainage, or using asphalt that’s too thin for the expected load. Water infiltration and freeze-thaw cycles in New York’s climate accelerate the damage once cracks start.
We prevent these issues by properly excavating to stable soil, installing adequate base material, and ensuring proper compaction at each layer. Correct grading directs water away from the surface, and we use appropriate asphalt thickness based on your specific use requirements.
Regular maintenance like crack sealing and periodic sealcoating also extends asphalt life significantly by preventing water penetration and UV damage.
Yes, we provide emergency response for urgent asphalt issues that create safety hazards or business disruptions. This includes pothole repairs, drainage problems, and damage from utility work or severe weather.
Our emergency service focuses on making the area safe and functional quickly, often using temporary repair methods until permanent solutions can be implemented under proper conditions. We keep cold-patch materials and equipment ready for these situations.
For non-emergency repairs, we typically schedule work during optimal weather conditions to ensure the longest-lasting results.
Our estimates include all materials, labor, equipment, and cleanup required to complete your project properly. We specify excavation depth, base material type and thickness, asphalt thickness, and any necessary drainage improvements.
We also clearly outline what permits or approvals may be needed and whether those costs are included or separate. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges—what we quote is what you pay unless you request changes to the original scope.
All estimates include a detailed timeline and explanation of our process, so you know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
Commercial projects require stricter quality control due to heavier traffic loads and higher performance expectations. We use certified materials that meet or exceed local specifications and conduct density testing to ensure proper compaction.
Our crew supervisors have decades of experience with commercial work and understand the importance of proper joint construction, grade control, and surface smoothness. We also coordinate closely with other trades and property managers to minimize business disruptions.
Every commercial project includes a comprehensive quality assurance program with documentation of materials used, compaction results, and final inspection reports.
