Hear From Our Clients
Your driveway takes a beating from Adirondack winters. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and temperature swings that can crack inferior work within a few seasons.
When we complete your driveway, you get asphalt that flexes with temperature changes instead of cracking. The dark surface absorbs heat to melt snow faster, and proper drainage prevents water from pooling and causing damage.
You’ll drive on a smooth, durable surface that handles everything from daily commutes to heavy delivery trucks. No more avoiding potholes or worrying about scraping your car’s undercarriage.
We’ve been serving Johnsburg and the surrounding Adirondack region for over 25 years. We’re not a franchise or a company that sends different crews to every job.
When you call, you talk directly to the owner. When we show up, the owner is on-site managing the project. This isn’t just about accountability—it’s about getting the job done right the first time.
We understand Johnsburg’s unique challenges. The mountain weather, the seasonal tourism traffic, the mix of year-round residents and vacation properties. We’ve paved driveways through all of it, and we know what works in this climate.
We start with a site assessment to understand your property’s drainage, soil conditions, and access requirements. No guesswork—we measure, evaluate, and plan before any equipment arrives.
Excavation comes next. We remove old material, grade for proper drainage, and prepare a solid base. This foundation work determines how long your driveway lasts, so we don’t cut corners here.
The paving happens when conditions are right. We lay asphalt at the correct temperature and thickness for your specific needs, then compact it properly. You’ll see the owner on-site during this critical phase, ensuring every detail meets our standards.
Ready to get started?
Your driveway project includes excavation, grading, base preparation, asphalt installation, and final compaction. We handle permits, coordinate material delivery, and manage the timeline so you don’t have to.
In Johnsburg’s climate, proper drainage is critical. We grade your driveway to direct water away from your foundation and prevent ice dams that can damage both your driveway and your property.
We also provide emergency repairs year-round. When winter storms damage your driveway or you discover problems that need immediate attention, we respond quickly. During off-season months, we shift to foundation work and land clearing, keeping our crew busy and available for your urgent needs.
Most residential driveway installations in Johnsburg take 2-3 days from start to finish, weather permitting. Day one involves excavation and base preparation. Day two is asphalt installation and compaction.
We schedule projects based on weather forecasts, not just calendar availability. Asphalt needs specific temperature conditions to cure properly, and we won’t compromise quality to meet an arbitrary deadline.
You can typically drive on your new driveway within 24-48 hours, but we recommend keeping heavy vehicles off for the first week while the asphalt fully cures.
Late spring through early fall offers the most consistent paving conditions in the Adirondacks. We typically schedule most installations between May and October when temperatures stay above 50°F consistently.
However, we do emergency repairs year-round. If your driveway develops serious damage during winter, we can perform temporary fixes to get you through until conditions allow for permanent repairs.
Planning ahead is smart. Contact us in early spring to get on the schedule for optimal paving weather. Projects booked early often get better scheduling flexibility and pricing.
Driveway paving costs in Johnsburg typically range from $3-6 per square foot for standard asphalt installation. A typical 600 square foot driveway runs $2,400-4,800, depending on site conditions and preparation requirements.
Factors that affect pricing include excavation depth needed, drainage requirements, accessibility for equipment, and base material costs. Properties with challenging access or significant drainage issues require more preparation work.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs. No hidden fees, no surprise charges during the project. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before we start.
Properly installed asphalt driveways handle Adirondack winters well when the base is prepared correctly and drainage is managed. Asphalt actually performs better than concrete in freeze-thaw cycles because it flexes rather than cracking.
The key is proper installation. We excavate to below the frost line, install adequate base material, and grade for drainage. Water is asphalt’s biggest enemy—when it gets underneath and freezes, that’s when damage occurs.
Regular maintenance helps too. Sealcoating every 2-3 years and filling small cracks before they expand will extend your driveway’s life significantly in our mountain climate.
We handle both new installations and repairs of all sizes. From patching potholes to complete driveway reconstruction, we have the equipment and experience for any project.
Many repairs can be done year-round, even during winter months. We keep cold-patch materials in stock for emergency repairs when hot asphalt isn’t feasible due to weather conditions.
For extensive damage affecting more than 25% of your driveway, replacement often makes more financial sense than patching. We’ll assess your situation honestly and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
You work directly with the owner from your first phone call through project completion. No sales teams, no subcontractors you’ve never met. The person who quotes your job is the same person managing the crew on your property.
We’ve been serving Johnsburg for over 25 years, so we understand local conditions, soil types, and weather patterns. We’re not learning on your job—we know what works here and what doesn’t.
Emergency response sets us apart too. When you have urgent driveway damage, we respond quickly rather than putting you on a waiting list. We’re part of this community, and we take care of our neighbors.
