Driveway Resurfacing & Overlay Services
Transform your worn driveway with professional asphalt overlay services. A cost-effective solution that restores beauty and functionality.
Our Resurfacing Process
We follow a proven 4-step process to ensure your driveway overlay is installed correctly and built to last for years to come.
1. Inspection & Assessment
Our experts thoroughly inspect your existing driveway to assess its condition, identify any structural issues, and determine if overlay is the right solution for your needs.
2. Surface Preparation
We clean the existing surface, repair any cracks or potholes, and ensure proper drainage. The surface is then primed to ensure optimal adhesion of the new asphalt layer.
3. Asphalt Overlay Application
A fresh layer of hot asphalt (typically 1.5-2 inches thick) is carefully applied over your existing driveway using professional-grade equipment for a smooth, even finish.
4. Compaction & Finishing
The new asphalt is compacted using heavy rollers to ensure proper density and durability. Edges are carefully finished, and the surface is left to cure properly.
Why Choose Asphalt Overlay?
Driveway resurfacing offers numerous advantages over complete replacement, making it the smart choice for homeowners.
Cost-Effective Solution
Overlay costs 30-50% less than complete driveway replacement while providing excellent results and extending your driveway's life by 8-15 years.
Quick Installation
Most residential driveway overlays can be completed in 1-2 days with minimal disruption to your daily routine. You can typically use your driveway within 24-48 hours.
Enhanced Durability
The new asphalt layer provides superior protection against weather, UV rays, and daily wear. Proper maintenance can extend the life of your overlay significantly.
Improved Curb Appeal
A fresh, smooth black surface dramatically improves your home's appearance and can increase property value by enhancing overall curb appeal.
