How We Work

Every asphalt job starts with clear planning and proven steps to ensure durability and professional finish.

What's Involved

Asphalt work follows a structured process. Site inspection comes first, then we prepare and grade the foundation. Next, we lay the asphalt in proper layers, compact it, and finish with professional sealing or striping as needed.

Site Assessment

We evaluate soil, drainage, and existing conditions to recommend the right approach for your property.

Prep & Grading

Foundation matters most. We clear, grade, and compact the base to ensure water drains away from the surface.

Asphalt Placement

Hot mix asphalt is laid in proper thickness and immediately compacted to create a dense, durable surface.

Finish & Seal

Final sealcoat protects against UV damage, water intrusion, and chemical wear. Pavement stays strong longer.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a new driveway in Irwin?

Yes, property improvements including new driveways typically require permits from the Irwin Borough Office. We handle paperwork and coordinate inspections so you stay compliant.

How often should I sealcoat my asphalt?

Plan on sealcoating every two to three years, depending on traffic and weather exposure. Irwin's winter salt makes more frequent sealcoating worthwhile for longevity.

What thickness should my asphalt driveway be?

Residential driveways should be at least 3 inches over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage or heavier vehicles may need thicker layers for durability.

Can you pave over my old driveway?

Yes, overlay paving works if the old surface is in fair condition. We evaluate the foundation and may recommend full removal if deterioration runs too deep.

What causes potholes in Irwin winters?

Water seeps into small cracks, freezes, expands, and breaks asphalt. Salt accelerates damage. Early crack sealing prevents potholes and saves money on repairs.

How do you handle drainage on parking lots?

Proper grading directs water away from pavement toward drainage swales or storm drains. Good drainage prevents pooling, extends pavement life, and keeps surfaces safer for vehicles.
