Customers say: True professional

"JY paving is upstanding, trustworthy, professional, and highly skilled. The job being a 250ft driveway with two car turn around multiple curves and driveway water run-off pitch, was done with excellent fluidity blending to concrete sidewalk and parking concrete slab, Even with a 10 wheel dump truck breakdown still finished the job on time, and the crew while waiting built a rock base curving with back pitch at bottom of driveway going above and beyond, still honoring a 1&1/2 year old price quote saving thousands from 2022 quotes."

"Working with Brett to replace our front steps was an easy, straightforward experience. The estimate he provided was accurate and when we asked for extra work to be performed we were accommodated within the regular project timeline. The services he provided exceeded our expectations using quality materials and leaving no trace of discarded project materials behind. We are very happy with the results. Thank you!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

New asphalt typically needs 24 to 72 hours to dry before it can handle light foot traffic and careful driving. Although it may appear solid after a few days, the full curing process, where the asphalt reaches its peak strength, takes much longer—generally from 30 days to a year.

During this extended curing time, the surface remains relatively soft and can be damaged by heavy vehicles, sharp objects, or high temperatures. To protect your investment, it's best to avoid parking heavy machinery on the asphalt until it has fully cured.

The exact time required for drying and curing depends on several factors, including the weather, the specific asphalt mix, and its thickness. For the most accurate advice tailored to your situation, consult with your asphalt contractor.

Sometimes, when people talk about asphalt driveways, they’re actually referring to asphalt concrete, which is a completely different compound. Asphalt concrete is asphaltic cement combined with sand or grit. It is significantly more lasting and durable than regular asphalt but also much more expensive. If you’re considering using asphalt concrete, ask an asphalt company for their expert opinions.

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

Driveway aprons typically range between four and seven inches thick, though your town's building codes will likely have specific requirements. Additionally, you may need to add a layer of permeable aggregate in the excavation below your paved apron to ensure proper stormwater drainage.

Asphalt is not a type of concrete. While both are a common type of pavement, asphalt is composed of aggregates (like sand and gravel) and bitumen; concrete is a mixture of cement, aggregates, and water. Here are some of the key differences between asphalt and concrete driveways.
