Asphalt Paving FAQ

Yard and driveway paving is priced per square foot, and most residential work lands in the low-to-mid single dollars per square foot. The number moves with the size of the area, the asphalt thickness, how easily our equipment can reach the site, and the condition of the base underneath. Recycled asphalt millings cost noticeably less than new hot-mix. After a free on-site measurement, your exact price is posted to your Ramp Login so you can approve it before anything is scheduled.

Most residential driveways and yards are paved in a single day once the base is prepped. A full tear-out and rebuild that includes excavation can run to two days. After paving, hot-mix needs a little time to cure — you can typically drive on it within two to three days, and we recommend waiting a bit longer before parking in the same spot every day.

Hot-mix asphalt has to be laid and compacted while it's hot, on ground that's warm and dry, or it won't bond and seal properly. That means new paving is best from spring through fall. In the cold months we focus on emergency repairs, cold-patch stopgaps, and planning — then schedule your full paving for the next suitable weather window right in your Ramp Login. If your yard needs winter attention, call us and we'll advise honestly on what can and can't be done well in the cold.

It depends on the base. If the surface is cracked but the ground beneath is sound, a resurface or a few patches will do. If the base has failed, an overlay just hides the problem, and a full rebuild is the spend that lasts. We'll tell you which side of that line you're on — see our driveway paving and repair pages for details.

For lanes, rural drives, overflow parking, and anywhere appearance matters less than function, recycled asphalt millings are an excellent, low-cost choice. Compacted properly, they lock together into a firm, mud-free surface. For a formal front driveway where looks matter, we usually recommend hot-mix. Many customers combine both, and we'll help you decide.
