What Makes Us Different as a Asphalt Paver.
We have established ourselves as a premier paving contractor through decades of experience navigating the city's unique challenges. Our expertise extends from downtown commercial districts to waterfront properties, where we understand how salt air exposure and coastal storm surges affect pavement longevity.
Our recent completion of the 80,000-square-foot Maliotis Cultural Center project demonstrates our capability to handle large-scale commercial developments. We paved the entire property and constructed the front patio and central steps, delivering seamless integration from parking areas to building entrances.
Our Asphalt Driveway Services
New Asphalt Driveway Installation
If your driveway is past saving, or you're paving fresh ground for a new build, a full install is the right call. We start by removing old material, grading the base, and packing down a thick layer of crushed stone. The stone base is the part nobody sees, but it's the part that decides how long your driveway will last. A weak base means cracks within a few winters, no matter how nice the top looks.
Driveway Resurfacing (Overlay)
Resurfacing is the middle ground between a small repair and a full tear-out. If your base is still solid but the top has surface cracks, light potholes, or rough patches, we can lay a new layer of asphalt right over the old one. Think of it like putting a fresh coat over a tired floor.
An overlay costs less than a full replacement and goes down in a day or two for most homes.
Sealcoating
Sealcoating is the sunscreen for your driveway. It's a thin, dark coat that goes over your asphalt to block out water, gas, oil, and UV rays. In Canton, where we get hot July afternoons and frozen February nights, that protection matters. Water that gets into tiny cracks freezes, expands, and turns small problems into big ones.
Crack Filling and Pothole Repair
Cracks are how driveways die. They start small, water gets in, ice pushes them wider, and before long you've got a pothole big enough to swallow a tire. We use hot rubberized crack filler that flexes with the asphalt as it heats and cools through the seasons. For potholes, we cut out the broken section, clean the edges, and patch with hot mix that bonds tight to the surrounding asphalt.
Driveway Widening and Extensions
Maybe you bought a second car. Maybe the family grew. Maybe you just got tired of doing the three-point shuffle every morning. We widen and extend asphalt driveways to give you more parking room, a turnaround, or a bigger apron at the street. Widening sounds simple but it's not just about pouring more asphalt. The new section needs the same base prep as a fresh driveway, and the seam where old meets new has to be cut clean and bonded right. Otherwise you'll see the joint crack within a year or two.
Asphalt Removal and Replacement
Some driveways are too far gone for resurfacing. If you've got alligator cracking across most of the surface, deep settling, or a base that's failing, the only real fix is to take it all out and start over. We use a milling machine to grind up the old asphalt, haul it away (it gets recycled), and rebuild from the ground up. This is also the right move for older homes near Canton Center where original driveways were poured on thin or unstable bases decades ago.
Driveway Maintenance Programs
A driveway is one of the few things on your house that gets cheaper to keep up the longer you stay ahead of it. Skip a few years of basic care and you're looking at a full replacement. Here's how we help Canton homeowners protect what they've already paid for.
01
The Yearly Check-Up
Once a year, usually in early spring, we walk your driveway, mark cracks, check the edges, and tell you what needs attention. No charge for the look. If we find something, we give you a written estimate. No pressure to fix it that day.
02
The 3-Year Seal Plan
This is our most popular plan. We sealcoat your driveway every three years, fill any new cracks each spring, and touch up small problem spots before they grow. Most driveways on this plan last 25 to 30 years instead of the usual 15 to 20.
03
The Commercial Lot Plan
For businesses around Canton, including the Royall Street area and Dan Road industrial spots, we offer scheduled maintenance with night and weekend work so we don't shut down your parking. Includes line striping touch-ups.
04
What You Can Do Yourself
Sweep off leaves and dirt a few times a year. Trapped moisture rots asphalt from above. Don't use rock salt on new asphalt for the first winter. Calcium chloride is safer.
Asphalt Driveway FAQs
How long does a new asphalt driveway take to install?
Most homes in Canton take one to two days. Day one is removal and base prep. Day two is paving and rolling. You'll need to stay off it for at least 24 to 72 hours after paving, longer in hot weather.
When is the best time of year to pave a driveway in Canton?
Late spring through early fall. We need ground temperatures above 50 degrees for asphalt to bond and cure right. May through October is the main season. We try to wrap up new installs before the first hard frost.
How much does a new driveway cost?
Pricing depends on size, base condition, and access. A standard two-car driveway in Canton usually runs a few thousand dollars for resurfacing and more for a full install. We give free written quotes after we see the property. We don't quote over the phone because every job is different.
How often should I sealcoat my driveway?
Every two to three years for most homes. New asphalt should wait 6 to 12 months before its first coat. After that, the test is simple: if water soaks in instead of beading up, it's time.
Can you pave over my old driveway?
Sometimes. If the base is still solid and the surface damage is light, an overlay works fine and saves money. If the base is failing, paving over it just buys you a year or two before the same cracks come back through. We check before we quote.
