Hear From Our Clients
Your new driveway isn’t just smooth asphalt—it’s a surface that drains properly, handles freeze-thaw cycles, and looks professional for decades. You won’t deal with premature cracking, water pooling, or that sinking feeling that you chose the wrong contractor.
We build driveways that complement Wilton’s established neighborhoods, from the historic areas near Route 50 to newer developments. Every project gets the same attention to proper base preparation and quality materials that ensure your investment pays off.
When we’re finished, you’ll have a driveway that enhances your property value and gives you confidence every time you pull in.
We’ve been serving Wilton and the surrounding Saratoga County area for over 25 years. We’re not the guys who show up at your door with leftover materials—we’re the local contractor your neighbors call when they want the job done right.
As an owner-operated business, you work directly with the person responsible for your project from start to finish. No middlemen, no confusion about who’s accountable.
We understand Wilton’s unique requirements, from town regulations to the specific challenges that come with our climate. Whether you’re dealing with a steep driveway grade or need to work around mature landscaping, we’ve handled it before.
We start with a site visit to assess your current driveway, drainage, and any specific challenges. You’ll get a detailed estimate that explains exactly what work needs to be done and why—no vague line items or surprise costs later.
Once we begin, we properly excavate and grade the area, ensuring water flows away from your foundation. The base preparation is critical—we use the right materials and compaction methods to prevent settling and premature failure.
The asphalt installation follows proven techniques with proper thickness for your specific use. We coordinate the timing so everything cures correctly, and you’ll know exactly when you can use your new driveway. Clean-up is part of the job, not an afterthought.

Every driveway project includes proper site preparation, quality base materials, and asphalt application that meets local standards. We handle permits when required and coordinate with utility companies if needed.
In Wilton’s climate, proper drainage is essential. We grade your driveway to direct water away from your home and prevent ice buildup in problem areas. The asphalt thickness is appropriate for residential use—typically 3 inches over a properly prepared base.
You’ll also get clear communication throughout the project. We explain what’s happening each day and address any questions before they become problems. Our goal is a finished driveway that looks professional and performs reliably through Saratoga County’s seasonal changes.
Most residential driveway installations take 2-3 days, depending on size and site conditions. Day one typically involves excavation and base preparation. Day two is asphalt installation, and day three handles final grading and cleanup if needed.
Weather plays a role—we won’t install asphalt in temperatures below 50 degrees or during rain. Wilton’s climate means we sometimes need to adjust schedules, but we’ll keep you informed of any changes.
You can usually drive on your new driveway within 24-48 hours, though we recommend avoiding heavy loads for the first week while the asphalt fully cures.
Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for asphalt paving in our area. May through October typically provides the consistent temperatures and dry weather that asphalt installation requires.
Summer is our busiest season, so scheduling early helps ensure availability. However, we can often work into November if weather cooperates, and emergency repairs are handled year-round when necessary.
Winter months are better suited for planning and preparation work. We use this time for excavation, drainage improvements, and foundation work that supports spring paving projects.
Surface cracks and minor settling can often be repaired, but extensive cracking, major settling, or drainage problems usually indicate the need for replacement. If more than 30% of your driveway surface shows significant damage, replacement is typically more cost-effective.
Age is another factor—driveways older than 20 years with multiple repair areas often benefit from complete replacement rather than continued patching. Poor drainage that causes water to pool or flow toward your foundation is a definite replacement indicator.
We’ll assess your specific situation during our site visit and explain your options honestly. Sometimes a repair can buy you a few more years, and sometimes starting fresh is the smarter investment.
Driveway paving costs vary based on size, site conditions, and specific requirements, but most residential projects in our area range from $3,000 to $8,000. Factors that affect pricing include excavation needs, drainage improvements, and access challenges.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs—no hidden fees or surprise charges. The estimate includes excavation, base preparation, asphalt installation, and cleanup. Additional work like drainage improvements or permit fees are clearly itemized.
Financing options may be available for larger projects. We believe in transparent pricing so you can make informed decisions about your investment.
Proper maintenance starts with sealcoating every 2-3 years to protect against water penetration and UV damage. In Wilton’s climate, this protection is especially important due to freeze-thaw cycles that can cause cracking.
Address small cracks promptly before they expand. Water infiltration during winter freeze cycles can turn minor cracks into major problems. Keep the surface clean and avoid using harsh chemicals for ice removal—sand provides traction without damaging the asphalt.
Regular inspection after winter helps identify any issues early. Look for areas where water pools or new cracks have developed, and address these before they become expensive repairs.
We handle all necessary permits and coordinate with Town of Wilton requirements for driveway work. Most residential driveway replacements don’t require permits, but work that affects drainage or involves significant grading changes may need approval.
We’re familiar with Wilton’s regulations regarding setbacks, drainage, and connection to town roads. If your project requires permits, we’ll handle the paperwork and ensure all work meets local standards.
Our experience with local requirements means fewer delays and proper compliance from the start. We maintain good relationships with town officials and inspectors, which helps keep projects moving smoothly.
