What Driveway Replacement Involves

Driveway replacement means removing your existing asphalt down to the base and repairing that base where needed. We then install a new 3–4 inch layer of compacted hot-mix asphalt.

Unlike resurfacing, which adds a layer on top of existing pavement, replacement addresses problems at the source. That means a failed base, extensive cracking, or a driveway that has simply reached the end of its life.

Signs You Need Replacement, Not a Repair

  • Alligator cracking covering more than 25% of the surface
  • Potholes or soft spots that return within a season
  • Visible sinking or heaving across large sections
  • A base that no longer supports vehicle weight
  • A driveway 20+ years old that's never been resurfaced

Replacement vs. Repair

If your driveway only has a few isolated cracks or a small sunken section, you may not need a full replacement. Driveway repair could be the more cost-effective fix.
