Driveway Overlay/Resurface
If the duration of your driveway isn’t a deciding factor, resurfacing is the most cost-effective way to make it look new. With a dependable existing driveway surface, a resurfacing job should last 7-10 years, though spot patching may be needed in some regions.
Driveways can be resurfaced or “overlayed” with asphalt. The prime candidate for a overlay is:
- A slightly cracked surface.
- The driveway is settled no more than 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 good to average [shape|condition}.
- The driveway is long and can have segments corrected 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, the team will take off the existing covering of the driveway, establish the fresh stone base, level out, leave it packed down and ready for review with the local village or city as directed.
The parking area will be usable once the groundwork is laid out in the majority of scenarios.
STEP 2.
INSPECTIONS
Once the base has been prepared, we will arrange any desired base inspections.
After passing the inspection, the project pavement installation date will be set, which is usually 1-3 days after the base has been readied, depending on the weather.
Generally, there is no requirement for anyone to be present at the time of inspection in most villages, but the permit must be visible on the front window or door, and plans that have been authorized must be accessible when necessary.
In Villages where a base inspection is not necessary, we will inform and paving can be done when convenient.
