How we do it

What moves the price

Paving in Brandon

Paving a long or curving Brandon driveway

A long drive gives a crew more places to cut corners. Every foot of it needs the same base, the same thickness, and the same grade, from the mailbox to the house. We pave the whole run to one standard.

The work starts under the surface. Soft spots get dug out, the base is compacted crushed limestone, and the grade is set so water sheds off the sides instead of running down the length of the drive. Through a curve, the crew keeps the base and the asphalt the same width and thickness, so the inside edge of the bend doesn't thin out.

Then 3 inches of asphalt goes down and is rolled to 2.5 inches compacted. Most driveways are paved in 1 to 2 days, and a longer run is planned into the schedule before we start. Your quote lists the paving and any other work, like tearing out an old drive or filling cracks, as separate line items, each with its own scope. If the drive is long enough to need more than a day, you'll know that up front.

Through the trees

Drives that wind under shade trees get the same compacted limestone base and 3 inches of asphalt as the straight stretch. The curve is graded so rain doesn't collect on the low side.

Long runs to the house

A long drive gets the same base and thickness from the street to the house. Asphalt usually costs less up front than concrete, and that adds up over a long run.

Garage, carport, and street edges on a Brandon driveway

The places where a driveway touches something else are where you notice the work. A lip at the garage door catches the mower. A low spot under the carport holds a puddle. A ragged edge at the street breaks off a piece at a time. None of that is hard to avoid. It takes time and hand tools.

A roller can't get tight against a garage slab or between carport posts, so those spots are finished by hand. The crew rakes the asphalt to the right height at the slab, then a plate compactor packs it down. Along walks and beds, the edges are pressed and shaped so they keep their line. It is slow work, and it is the part of the job you see every day.

At the street, the new asphalt is tied in to the existing pavement so tires roll on and off without a bump. If an old driveway has to come out first, it is torn out and the base is rebuilt before any of this starts. That way the finish work sits on something solid.

At the garage door

The asphalt is raked to meet the garage slab and packed with a plate compactor, so the door closes on an even surface instead of a lip or a gap.

Under the carport

Paving that runs under a carport is finished by hand between the posts and graded so water drains out from under the roof. A cracked-through carport drive is replaced the same way.

Where it meets the street

The new driveway is tied in to the pavement at the street so the transition rolls smooth. Edges along the yard are compacted so they hold their shape instead of crumbling into the grass.

Your first year with a new Brandon asphalt driveway

New asphalt stays soft longer than most people expect. It looks finished the day the roller leaves, but it keeps curing for 6 to 12 months. Soft asphalt marks easily in that stretch, and most marks come from everyday habits nobody thinks twice about.

You can drive your car on it after about 24 hours. Keep heavier vehicles, like a moving truck or a delivery truck, off it for 48 to 72 hours. While it cures, don't turn the steering wheel when the car is sitting still. Turning the wheels in place can scuff and twist asphalt that hasn't hardened yet.

Once the cure is done, the first sealcoat goes on, and then again every 1 to 2 years. Fill cracks as soon as they show so water stays out of the base. Small cracks are quick to fill, and water in the base is what turns them into a repave. With that upkeep, an asphalt driveway lasts 20 to 30 years. When the cure is done, send us photos and we'll quote the first sealcoat.

After the paving crew leaves

  1. 01

    The first day

    Keep everyone off the new asphalt, cars included. After about 24 hours, your car can use the driveway again.

  2. 02

    The first 6 to 12 months

    Heavy trucks wait 48 to 72 hours. The asphalt is still curing, so avoid turning your wheels while the car isn't moving.

  3. 03

    The first sealcoat

    Once it has cured, two coats of sealcoat go on. After that, the driveway gets sealed every 1 to 2 years.

Q · 03 How do you finish the driveway at my garage or carport?
