Driveway Overlay/Resurface
Resurfacing is an economical approach to giving your driveway a fresh facade without investing in extended life. 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 minimally 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; it is unlikely that smaller driveways will see any cost advantages due to the minimum payment that has to be made.

After the inspection has been approved, we will arrange for the installation of the pavement to take place within 1-3 days after the base has been prepared, depending on the weather conditions.
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.
If a base inspection is not necessary for particular Villages, we shall advise, and paving can be done as soon as possible.
