How we do it

Paving in Jackson

How we build a Jackson driveway to last

Most driveway failures start under the surface. Water gets in through cracks or runs off the yard, the ground under the base softens, and the driveway cracks across the middle or sinks along the edges within a few years.

We build for that. Soft and wet spots get dug out and replaced, the base is compacted crushed limestone, and the driveway is graded so rain runs off the edges instead of soaking in underneath. Then we lay 3 inches of asphalt and roll it to 2.5 inches compacted.

The upkeep matters as much as the build. Fill cracks as they open so water never reaches the base, and sealcoat every 1 to 2 years. With that, an asphalt driveway typically lasts 20 to 30 years.

Repair, resurface, or replace your Jackson driveway?

Not every worn driveway needs to come out. What it needs depends on what is happening under the surface, and we tell you which one it is before we quote.

If the cracks run across the whole driveway or it is sinking in places, the base has failed, and a new layer on top would crack the same way. That is a replacement. If the base is still solid, you have cheaper options.

Planning around a new asphalt driveway in Jackson

A new driveway takes your parking spot for a few days, so a little planning up front saves a scramble. We set the start date with you, and on most driveways the paving itself takes 1 to 2 days. Tell us at the estimate about anything that has to get in or out, like a work truck, a trash pickup day, or a delivery you are expecting.

Move the cars out before the crew arrives, onto the street or a neighbor's drive. Cars can usually go back on the new asphalt after about 24 hours. Heavy trucks, like a moving truck or a delivery that backs up to the garage, should wait 48 to 72 hours.

The first months matter too. Asphalt keeps curing for 6 to 12 months. While it cures, avoid turning your wheels in place, and keep heavy loads like a parked trailer from resting on the same spot day after day. Once it has cured, the driveway is ready for its first sealcoat.

Before the crew comes

We book the date with you and go over the plan: where the cars go, what has to get in or out, and how long the drive will be closed.

The first year

It cures for 6 to 12 months, then gets its first sealcoat. After that, a fresh coat every 1 to 2 years keeps the surface from drying out.

§ 04 · FAQ

Straight answers on Asphalt Driveways.

Q · 01 Who does asphalt driveways near me in Jackson?
+

PavePro Asphalt Paving Jackson. Our own crews do the paving, and we never sub it out. Call (601) 401-6191 or request a free estimate online.

Q · 02 What goes into the price of a Jackson driveway?
+

The size and shape of the driveway, whether old asphalt or concrete has to come out first, and how much base and drainage work the ground needs. Your free written quote lists each service with its own scope.

Q · 03 Why do asphalt driveways crack and sink?
+

Most of the time it starts with water reaching the ground under the base. A dug-out and rebuilt base, a compacted limestone layer, grading that sheds water, and filling cracks as they open do the most to prevent it.

Q · 04 How long does it take to pave a driveway?
+

The paving usually takes 1 to 2 days. Most jobs are scheduled within 2 to 3 weeks of the deposit, and sooner for urgent repairs.

Q · 05 When can I drive on my new driveway?
+

Cars can go on it after about 24 hours, and heavy trucks after 48 to 72 hours. The asphalt keeps curing for 6 to 12 months, so avoid turning your wheels in place on it during that time.

Q · 06 Can you pave over my old driveway?
+

Only if the base under it is still solid. If the old driveway is cracked through or sinking, it has to come out first so the new one isn't built on a failing base.

Q · 07 Do you have to see my driveway before you quote it?
+

For a new or replaced driveway, yes. We come to your property by appointment, look at the slope, the drainage, and what is there now, and send a free written quote, often the same day.

Q · 08 Can you replace an old concrete driveway with asphalt?
+

Yes. The old concrete comes out, the ground is regraded, and a compacted crushed limestone base goes down before the new asphalt. Removal is part of your written quote.

Q · 09 Is a thicker layer of asphalt better for a driveway?
+

We lay 3 inches of asphalt and roll it to 2.5 inches compacted. On a driveway, the compacted limestone base and the drainage under it do as much to make it last as the asphalt on top.

Q · 10 How long will my asphalt driveway last?
+

With proper care, you are looking at 20 to 30 years of use. Sealcoating every 1 to 2 years and repairing cracks as they appear makes all the difference.

Q · 11 Is asphalt a better choice than concrete?
+

Asphalt is usually more affordable, faster to install, and easier to repair. Concrete lasts longer but costs a lot more up front.

Q · 12 When should I sealcoat my new driveway?
+

Wait 6 to 12 months so the asphalt can cure, then sealcoat it and reseal every 1 to 2 years.
