You get asphalt surfaces engineered for Warren County’s climate challenges. No more watching cracks appear within months of installation or dealing with water pooling that threatens your foundation.
Your driveway or parking lot maintains its appearance and functionality through harsh Adirondack winters. Proper thickness and base preparation mean decades of reliable performance instead of annual repair bills.
Safety hazards disappear when your asphalt is installed correctly the first time. No liability concerns from potholes or uneven surfaces that create risks for vehicles and pedestrians on your property.
We’ve been the go-to asphalt contractor for Horicon residents since the late 1990s. You work directly with the owner from estimate through completion, ensuring personal accountability and clear communication throughout your project.
We understand Horicon’s unique challenges – from the seasonal temperature swings that stress asphalt surfaces to the drainage considerations essential near Brant Lake and surrounding areas. Our installations are designed specifically for properties within the Adirondack Park region.
As your neighbors, we’re invested in this community long-term. When you need service calls or have questions years down the line, we’ll be here to take care of you with the same attention we gave your original installation.
Your project starts with a thorough site evaluation where we assess drainage patterns, soil conditions, and access requirements specific to your Horicon property. You receive a detailed estimate with no hidden costs before any work begins.
Site preparation determines long-term success, so we properly excavate and install the stone base needed to handle frost heaving and water infiltration common in our region. This foundation work prevents the premature failures that plague rushed installations.
Asphalt installation happens only when temperatures support proper curing. The owner personally oversees the process to ensure thickness specifications and finishing meet our standards before considering your project complete.

Our comprehensive services include new asphalt driveways, parking lot installation, repairs, excavation, and foundation work throughout Horicon and surrounding Warren County communities. We handle projects from small residential repairs to complete commercial installations.
Horicon’s location within the Adirondack Park presents unique challenges that require local expertise. From managing drainage on sloped properties near Route 8 to handling the freeze-thaw cycles that stress surfaces throughout the region, we design installations for your specific conditions.
Emergency response capability sets us apart when urgent repairs become necessary. Whether it’s storm damage that creates safety hazards or structural issues that affect property access, we respond quickly to restore functionality and eliminate liability concerns.
Most Horicon driveway installations take 1-2 days depending on size and site conditions. Day one focuses on excavation and base preparation, while day two involves asphalt installation and final grading work.
Weather significantly impacts our scheduling since asphalt requires temperatures above 50°F for proper curing. During marginal weather periods in spring or fall, your project might be delayed a day or two to ensure optimal installation conditions.
Larger commercial projects like parking lots require additional time based on square footage and complexity. We provide detailed timeline estimates during the planning process so you can coordinate with business operations and minimize disruption to your customers.
Proper base preparation is critical for surviving Horicon’s freeze-thaw cycles. We excavate to appropriate depth and install properly graded stone base that provides drainage and prevents the frost heaving that destroys inferior installations within a few seasons.
Thickness specifications matter significantly in our climate. We install minimum 2-inch thickness for residential driveways and 3 inches for high-traffic areas, because thinner installations simply don’t survive Adirondack winters without constant repairs.
Drainage design prevents water infiltration that causes structural failure. We ensure proper grading and slope to direct water away from the asphalt surface and your foundation, since poor drainage is the leading cause of premature asphalt failure in our region.
Yes, we provide emergency response throughout Horicon for urgent asphalt repairs that create safety hazards or access problems. Large potholes, structural damage, or storm-related issues qualify for emergency service calls outside normal business hours.
Emergency repairs focus on immediate safety and functionality, though permanent solutions might require follow-up work when weather permits proper installation. We maintain materials and equipment needed for both temporary stabilization and permanent repairs.
Being owner-operated means direct access when emergencies arise. We understand that asphalt problems can create liability concerns and property access issues that can’t wait, especially during Horicon’s challenging winter weather conditions.
Asphalt paving costs in Horicon typically range from $3-5 per square foot for residential driveways, with variation based on project size, thickness requirements, and site conditions. Commercial installations may differ due to traffic specifications and thickness needs.
Site preparation significantly affects total investment since some Horicon properties require more excavation, drainage work, or base materials than others. Properties with challenging slopes or existing drainage issues need additional preparation for long-term performance.
We provide detailed upfront estimates that itemize all costs including materials, labor, and site preparation work. No surprise charges or hidden fees – you know the complete investment before work begins, including optional services like sealcoating or striping.
Late spring through early fall provides optimal conditions for asphalt installation in Horicon, with consistent temperatures above 50°F needed for proper curing. We typically schedule most installations between May and October when weather supports quality work.
Winter months focus on emergency repairs and project planning for the upcoming season. We use this time for site evaluations, permitting, and scheduling so we can move efficiently when installation weather arrives.
Early scheduling is essential since experienced contractors book quickly during peak season. Contact us in late winter or early spring to secure preferred timing for your Horicon project, especially for larger installations requiring specific coordination.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation defects and premature failure from improper technique or materials for one full year from project completion. This includes issues like cracking from inadequate base preparation or installation problems affecting surface integrity.
The warranty excludes damage from vehicle abuse, chemical spills, or loads beyond design specifications. It also doesn’t cover damage from ground movement, tree roots, or environmental factors beyond our control during installation.
As Horicon’s established asphalt contractor for 25+ years, we stand behind our work beyond formal warranty periods. We maintain long-term relationships with clients and address concerns fairly because our community reputation depends on lasting customer satisfaction.
