We’ve been serving Barkersville and the surrounding Saratoga County area for over 25 years. As an owner-operated business, every project gets personal attention from start to finish.
We specialize in residential and commercial paving, asphalt work, excavation, and foundation services. What sets us apart is our commitment to honest pricing, emergency response capability, and deep community roots.
Local homeowners know they can count on direct access to the owner, hands-on project management, and straightforward communication. Whether it’s a new driveway installation or seasonal maintenance, we focus on building lasting relationships rather than one-time transactions.
First, we assess your existing driveway and drainage needs. This includes measuring the area, checking for proper slope, and identifying any underlying issues that need addressing before paving begins.
Next comes excavation and base preparation. We remove old material if needed, grade the area for proper water runoff, and install a compacted stone base. This foundation work is critical for long-term durability in New York’s challenging climate.
Finally, we install the asphalt using proper thickness and compaction techniques. The surface is finished smooth and even, with attention to transitions and edges. You get a driveway that’s ready for immediate use and built to handle years of daily traffic plus seasonal weather extremes.

We provide full-service driveway paving including new installations, resurfacing, and repairs. Each project includes proper excavation, base preparation, and professional asphalt installation designed for New York’s weather conditions.
Local homeowners in Barkersville benefit from year-round availability, with us adapting services seasonally. During optimal paving weather from spring through fall, focus shifts to new installations and major projects. Winter months allow for planning, foundation work, and emergency repairs when needed.
Our service area covers Saratoga County and surrounding regions, with particular expertise in the unique soil conditions and drainage challenges common to the local area. Every project receives owner supervision and direct communication, ensuring quality results that enhance property value and provide lasting performance.
The optimal paving season in New York runs from late spring through early fall, typically May through September. During this period, ambient temperatures consistently stay between 65-75°F, which allows hot mix asphalt to cure properly and maintain structural integrity.
Winter paving is possible but not recommended. Cold temperatures and frozen ground prevent proper asphalt binding, and shortened working time makes achieving proper compaction difficult. This leads to premature cracking and drainage problems.
Summer’s extreme heat can also pose challenges, making fresh asphalt soft and sticky. We use specialized techniques and timing to work around these conditions, but spring and fall generally provide the most favorable installation conditions.
A properly installed asphalt driveway in the Hudson Valley region typically lasts 20-25 years with appropriate maintenance. The key factors are proper base preparation, correct asphalt thickness, and regular sealcoating every 3-5 years.
New York’s freeze-thaw cycles are particularly hard on pavement, which is why proper installation matters so much. A well-compacted stone base and adequate asphalt thickness help prevent the cracking and heaving that destroy driveways prematurely.
Regular maintenance like crack sealing and sealcoating protects the surface from water penetration, UV damage, and winter road salt. Homeowners who stay on top of maintenance often see their driveways last well beyond the 25-year mark.
Driveway paving costs typically range from $2,400 to $4,800 for a standard 600 square foot residential driveway, depending on site conditions, thickness requirements, and any necessary prep work. The final price includes excavation, base preparation, and asphalt installation.
Several factors affect pricing: existing driveway condition, drainage requirements, accessibility for equipment, and local material costs. Properties requiring extensive excavation or special base work will cost more than straightforward overlay projects.
We provide honest, upfront estimates with no hidden charges. We’ll assess your specific situation and explain exactly what work is needed and why, so you can make an informed decision about your investment.
Absolutely. Proper drainage is critical for driveway longevity, especially in New York where water infiltration leads to freeze-thaw damage. We assess and address drainage as part of every installation project.
This includes grading the driveway for proper slope, installing catch basins or drain systems where needed, and ensuring water flows away from your home’s foundation. Poor drainage is one of the leading causes of premature driveway failure.
Our excavation and foundation experience means we understand how water moves around properties. We’ll identify potential drainage problems before they become expensive repairs and incorporate solutions into the paving project design.
We’re owner-operated, meaning you get direct access to the decision-maker from initial consultation through project completion. This eliminates communication problems and ensures consistent quality standards throughout your project.
