Hear From Our Clients
Your driveway takes a beating from Hudson Valley weather. Summer heat cracks the surface while winter freeze cycles create potholes that only get worse over time.
When you choose quality paving, you’re not just fixing a problem—you’re making an investment that pays back. A well-paved driveway handles the weather, looks professional, and adds real value when it’s time to sell.
You get smooth access to your home, no more scraping your car on uneven spots, and the confidence that comes with knowing the job was done right the first time.
We’ve been paving driveways in Tenantville and surrounding areas since 2000. We’re not some fly-by-night operation—we’re your neighbors, and we’ll be here long after your driveway is finished.
Mike Morgan responds to calls within minutes, not days. When you work with us, you get direct access to the owner who oversees every project from start to finish.
We understand Tenantville’s unique challenges. The weather here is tough on pavement, so we use materials and techniques that are built to handle what nature throws at them.
First, we come out and assess your current situation. No guesswork—we look at drainage, grade, and any existing problems that need addressing before we pour new asphalt.
Next, we prep the area properly. This means excavation if needed, proper grading for water runoff, and a solid base that won’t shift or settle over time.
Then we install your new driveway using quality materials designed for local weather conditions. We wait for the right weather window—no rushing the job because of schedule pressure.
Finally, we clean up completely and walk you through proper maintenance to help your investment last as long as possible.

Every driveway project includes proper drainage solutions—critical in Tenantville where water runoff can cause major problems if not handled correctly. We slope everything properly so water moves away from your foundation and doesn’t pool on the surface.
You get quality asphalt that’s mixed specifically for our climate conditions. Not the cheapest material available, but the right material that handles freeze-thaw cycles without cracking apart in two years.
We also include proper edging and transitions so your new driveway connects smoothly with existing surfaces. No awkward bumps or gaps that create problems later.
Most residential driveway installations take 2-3 days from start to finish, weather permitting. Day one is excavation and base prep—the foundation work that determines how long your driveway will last.
Day two is asphalt installation and initial compaction. We use proper equipment to ensure even thickness and density throughout the entire surface.
Day three is final grading, cleanup, and any finishing touches around edges or transitions. We don’t rush this process because shortcuts always show up later as problems you’ll have to pay to fix.
Late spring through early fall gives us the most consistent weather windows for quality paving work. Asphalt needs specific temperature ranges to cure properly—too cold and it won’t compact right, too hot and it can become unstable.
We avoid paving during rainy periods or when temperatures drop below 50 degrees consistently. This might mean waiting a few extra days, but it’s the difference between a driveway that lasts 15 years versus one that starts cracking in three.
Summer is our busiest season, so if you’re planning a project, earlier scheduling gives you more flexibility with timing and often better pricing.
A typical residential driveway in Tenantville runs between $3-7 per square foot for quality asphalt installation, depending on site conditions and prep work required. A standard two-car driveway averages 600-800 square feet.
The biggest cost variables are excavation needs and drainage solutions. If your current driveway has major settling or water issues, proper prep work adds to the upfront cost but saves thousands in future repairs.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down exactly what you’re paying for—materials, labor, prep work, and cleanup. No surprise charges or hidden fees that show up later.
Absolutely. Drainage is critical in Tenantville where we get significant rainfall and snow melt. Poor drainage destroys driveways faster than anything else, so we address it upfront rather than hoping it works out.
We grade everything to move water away from your foundation and off the driveway surface. If needed, we install proper drainage systems including catch basins or French drains to handle problem areas.
This isn’t an optional add-on—it’s part of doing the job right the first time. A driveway that pools water will crack and heave no matter how good the asphalt is.
You can walk on new asphalt within a few hours, but we recommend waiting 24-48 hours before driving on it, depending on weather conditions. Hot weather requires longer curing time.
Avoid turning your steering wheel while stationary for the first week—this can leave marks in the surface while it’s still curing. Also avoid parking in the exact same spots repeatedly during the first month.
Heavy vehicles like delivery trucks should stay off for at least a week. We’ll give you specific guidance based on the weather conditions during your installation and the thickness of asphalt we’ve installed.
Sealcoating every 3-4 years is the most important maintenance step. This protects the asphalt from water penetration, UV damage, and chemical spills that can break down the surface over time.
Keep the surface clean of debris and address any small cracks quickly before they become major problems. Small cracks are normal settling, but they need sealing to prevent water from getting underneath the asphalt.
In winter, use sand instead of rock salt when possible. Salt accelerates asphalt deterioration, especially around edges where water tends to collect. Proper snow removal without scraping the surface also helps extend life.
