Ready to get started?
Your driveway paving project includes proper site preparation, quality base installation, and professional asphalt application. We handle everything from excavation to final grading, ensuring proper drainage away from your home.
Queensbury’s climate demands specific attention to base preparation and material selection. We use asphalt grades that withstand local temperature fluctuations and provide adequate thickness—typically 2-3 inches depending on your traffic needs.
Our service includes cleanup of all debris, proper edge finishing, and detailed maintenance instructions. You’ll receive warranty protection and have direct access to our team for any questions. We also offer emergency services for urgent paving needs.
Every project receives the same careful attention whether it’s a small residential driveway or larger commercial installation. Our goal is a smooth, durable surface that enhances your property value and provides years of reliable service.
Most residential driveway paving projects in Queensbury take 1-3 days from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. Weather conditions can affect timing—we won’t install asphalt in wet conditions or extreme temperatures because it compromises quality.
The process starts with site preparation, which often takes the longest. If we’re removing old pavement or addressing drainage issues, that adds time but ensures a proper foundation. The actual asphalt installation typically happens in one day once prep work is complete.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our initial assessment and keep you updated throughout the project. Unlike contractors who rush to finish, we prioritize doing the job right over doing it fast.
The biggest difference is in base preparation and material quality—areas where cheaper contractors cut corners. A proper base requires excavating to the right depth, installing adequate stone base, and compacting everything correctly. Skipping these steps saves money upfront but causes expensive problems within 1-2 years.
Quality paving also means using the right asphalt thickness and grade for your specific needs. Residential driveways need at least 2 inches of compacted asphalt, while high-traffic areas require 3 inches. Cheaper contractors often use thinner applications that fail prematurely.
The installation process matters too. Quality contractors have proper equipment, experienced crews, and take time to ensure correct grading and drainage. This attention to detail is what separates lasting driveways from ones that crack and deteriorate quickly.
Several signs indicate your driveway needs full replacement rather than simple repairs. Widespread cracking, especially “alligator” cracking that looks like reptile skin, suggests base failure. Multiple potholes, significant settling, or areas where water pools consistently also point to structural problems.
If your driveway has soft spots that give under pressure, or if previous repairs have failed repeatedly, the underlying base likely needs attention. Edge deterioration and drainage issues that direct water toward your foundation are other red flags.
During our assessment, we’ll honestly tell you whether repair or replacement makes more sense. Sometimes a good overlay can extend life, but if the base is compromised, full replacement prevents ongoing problems and saves money long-term.
New asphalt driveways in Queensbury need minimal maintenance initially but benefit from proactive care. Avoid heavy traffic for the first few days while the asphalt fully cures. Keep sharp objects and petroleum products off the surface, as they can cause staining or softening.
Sealcoating every 2-3 years helps protect against weather damage and extends driveway life. This is especially important in our climate with freeze-thaw cycles that can cause cracking. Address small cracks promptly before they allow water penetration.
Regular cleaning and debris removal prevent staining and drainage issues. Snow removal should use plastic shovels rather than metal to avoid surface damage. Proper maintenance can extend your driveway’s life to 20+ years with minimal major repairs.
Driveway paving costs in Queensbury typically range from $7-15 per square foot for quality asphalt installation, with most residential projects falling between $3,000-8,000 depending on size and complexity. Factors affecting cost include existing conditions, drainage needs, and access difficulty.
The cheapest bid isn’t always the best value. Contractors who underbid often cut corners on base preparation, material thickness, or use inferior asphalt grades. These shortcuts lead to premature failure and expensive repairs within a few years.
We provide transparent, detailed estimates that break down all costs. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for—no surprise charges or hidden fees. Our pricing reflects quality materials, proper installation methods, and the experience needed to build driveways that last.
We offer something many paving contractors don’t—direct owner involvement and genuine accountability. Mike Morgan personally handles estimates, oversees every project, and remains available throughout the process. You’re not dealing with salespeople or subcontractors.
Our 25+ years serving Queensbury means we understand local conditions, soil types, and drainage challenges that affect driveway performance. We’ve built relationships with suppliers and developed techniques specifically for our climate and terrain.
Most importantly, we do the job right the first time. No shortcuts on base preparation, no thin asphalt applications, no disappearing after completion. Our reputation depends on every driveway we install, which is why we maintain high standards and provide warranty protection on our work.
