  • Do I need to sealcoat my driveway?

    Yes. Sealcoating applied by asphalt companies in Wallingford, CT or the surrounding regions protects asphalt from weather, oxidation, and cracking.

  • How long will a new asphalt driveway last?

    In Connecticut, a professionally installed asphalt driveway typically lasts 20+ years. Longevity depends on proper base preparation, quality materials, and regular maintenance like sealcoating. Because we focus heavily on the sub-base and drainage, our driveways are built to endure the freeze-thaw cycles of New England.
  • Why is proper drainage and grading important?

    Water is the "enemy" of asphalt. If water pools on the surface or seeps underneath, it can cause cracks and potholes. During our site preparation, we ensure the area is properly graded so that water flows away from your home or building foundation.
  • When is the best time of year to pave?

    The paving season in Connecticut typically runs from late spring through late autumn, as hot-mix asphalt requires warmer ground temperatures to be compacted properly. We can, however, provide estimates and planning services year-round.
  • How often should I sealcoat my driveway or parking lot?

    To protect your asphalt from oil spills, salt, and UV oxidation, we recommend sealcoating one year after the installation of a new driveway and every 3-5 years after that. Regular sealcoating can double the life of your pavement by keeping the asphalt flexible and preventing water intrusion.
