Asphalt Driveway Overstone
If you are experiencing a bumpy surface, dirt, mud and a disorganized state with your gravel drive, it may be necessary to determine how to make the gravel driveway firm.
Asphalt Overstone is the optimal decision as it does not necessitate excavation, thus reducing cost.
First, examining the levels is necessary to make sure the water doesn’t form puddles on the ground.
Next, a sub-base will be established to form a consistent plane that can bear the weight of the asphalt above it.
Last we install 3″ asphalt and compact it.
When should I do it?
Overstone is placed when the client already has a gravel base laid.
However, our crew must inspect the levels and raise to a total of two inches of gravel.
A minor dig may be obligatory for eliminating debris.

Driveway Overlay/Resurface
A resurfacing is a cost-efficient method of refreshing the look of your driveway if are not concerned about optimal longevity Generally, a resurfacing project over an existing steady driveway surface will last approximately 7-10 years, though some spots may need to be patched.
Driveways can be resurfaced or “overlayed” with asphalt. The prime candidate for a resurface is:
- A slightly cracked area.
- The driveway is settled at leastat minimum 2″ low below the garage floor or has at least this amount of space from current pavement to garage floor, city sidewalk, and entrance, and is in adequate to average [shape|condition}.
- The driveway is long and can have segments fixed independently; cost savings are not typically seen in smaller driveways as they may still have to meet the minimum fee.

ASPHALT PAVING PROCESS
STEP 1.
DEMO & BASE PREPARATION
Upon arrival thethe crew will strip the current surface of the driveway, install the new stone base, flatten, and have it compressed and set for appraisal with the city or village needed.
Generally, the driveway will be ready to be parked on once the base is established.
STEP 2.
INSPECTIONS
When the base is ready, we will arrange any requisite base inspections.
Following the inspection, the pavement installation date will be set, which is usually between 1-3 days after the base is prepared, weather permitting.
In most villages, it is not necessary for anyone to be present during the inspection, though it is compulsory for a permit to be visibly displayed on a front window or door, and approved plans to be made available in case of need.
Where a base inspection is not required for some Villages, we shall advise, and paving can be done without delay.
STEP 3.
PAVEMENT INSTALLATION
The asphalt workers will finish the driveway by pouring the asphalt and keeping it inaccessible to cars.
When constructing, please contact the local police station for authorization to park on the street.
