Your property gets asphalt that handles New York’s freeze-thaw cycles without cracking or deteriorating. You’re looking at 15-30 years of reliable performance when the foundation is properly compacted and quality materials are used correctly.
No more dealing with potholes every spring or watching your investment crumble after a few seasons. Professional installation means proper drainage, appropriate thickness for your traffic load, and materials that actually match your climate conditions.
You get a surface that adds value to your property while eliminating the headaches of constant repairs. That’s what happens when an experienced asphalt company handles your project from start to finish.
We’ve been serving Coons, NY and the surrounding region as an owner-operated asphalt company since the late 1990s. You work directly with the owner on every project, not a sales rep who disappears once the contract is signed.
We understand local conditions that affect asphalt performance. New York’s harsh winters and temperature swings require specific installation techniques and material choices that many contractors get wrong.
You’re getting someone who’s built a reputation in this community through consistent quality work and honest pricing. No gimmicks, no high-pressure sales tactics, just straightforward communication about what your project needs and what it will cost.
Your project starts with a free on-site consultation where we evaluate your specific needs and site conditions. You get a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline without hidden costs or surprise charges.
Preparation begins with proper excavation and base compaction using professional equipment. A 4-inch compacted base gets installed with vibratory rollers, not hand tools. This foundation work determines how long your asphalt will last.
The paving process uses hot asphalt mix appropriate for your traffic load and local climate. Professional paving machines ensure consistent thickness and proper compaction. You can typically drive on the surface within 72 hours of completion.

Your asphalt project includes everything from initial excavation through final cleanup. Residential driveways, commercial parking lots, and private roadways all get the same attention to proper installation techniques and quality materials.
Coons, NY properties face specific challenges from winter weather and soil conditions. We adjust mix designs and installation methods based on your expected traffic load and local drainage requirements.
Emergency repair services are available when unexpected damage occurs. Whether it’s pothole repair, crack sealing, or drainage issues, you get responsive service that prevents small problems from becoming expensive replacements.
Properly installed asphalt typically lasts 15-30 years in New York’s climate when the installation follows correct procedures. The key factors are adequate base preparation, proper drainage, and using asphalt mix designed for freeze-thaw conditions.
Your asphalt’s lifespan depends heavily on the foundation work. A properly compacted 4-inch base prevents settling and cracking that shorten pavement life. Drainage is equally critical since standing water accelerates deterioration through freeze-thaw cycles.
Regular maintenance like crack sealing and occasional sealcoating can extend your asphalt’s life significantly. Most premature failures happen because contractors cut corners on base preparation or use inappropriate materials for local conditions.
Hot asphalt provides permanent repairs and installations because it bonds properly with existing pavement and compacts to full density. Cold patch is a temporary solution that works for emergency repairs but doesn’t last long-term.
We use hot mix for all permanent work because it creates the molecular bonds necessary for durability. The material is heated to 220-300°F during installation, allowing proper compaction and weather resistance.
Cold patch can get you through winter or handle emergency situations, but it’s not a substitute for proper hot asphalt installation. If you’re investing in your property, hot asphalt installation provides the longevity and performance you’re paying for.
Asphalt paving typically costs $3-7 per square foot for residential driveways, with most projects ranging from $1,200-6,000 depending on size and site conditions. Your specific cost depends on excavation needs, base requirements, and access challenges.
Factors affecting your price include the current condition of the area, drainage requirements, and thickness needed for your vehicle traffic. Properties requiring extensive excavation or special drainage work cost more than simple overlay projects.
Getting multiple written estimates helps you understand what’s included in each price. Be cautious of significantly low bids that often indicate corners being cut on base preparation, material quality, or proper installation procedures.
Asphalt installation requires temperatures above 50°F for proper compaction and curing, making winter installation challenging in New York. Most quality asphalt work happens between April and October when conditions allow proper installation.
Emergency repairs can sometimes be done in winter using specialized techniques, but permanent installations should wait for appropriate weather. Cold temperatures prevent the asphalt from compacting properly and can lead to premature failure.
Planning your project for spring or fall installation ensures optimal conditions for long-lasting results. We book projects during winter for spring installation, so early planning helps secure your preferred timeline.
New asphalt needs 30-90 days to fully cure before heavy loads or sharp turns from vehicles. During this period, avoid parking in the same spots repeatedly and be gentle with steering while the surface is still soft.
Sealcoating should be applied 6-12 months after installation, then every 2-3 years depending on traffic and weather exposure. This protective coating prevents water penetration and extends your asphalt’s lifespan significantly.
Crack sealing should be done promptly when small cracks appear, typically within the first few years. Addressing minor issues early prevents water infiltration that leads to expensive base damage and premature replacement needs.
Look for contractors with proper licensing, insurance, and local references spanning several years. Experienced asphalt companies can show you completed projects in your area and provide references from recent customers.
Avoid contractors who show up unsolicited offering “leftover materials” or requiring full payment upfront. Quality contractors provide written estimates, use professional equipment, and follow proper installation procedures including base compaction.
Check that they’re using professional paving machines rather than hand tools, and verify they compact the base with vibratory equipment. Ask about their process for base preparation, drainage, and material specifications for your specific project needs.
