Residential Driveway Paving and Sealing

Should I Pave or Seal My Driveway?

PAVING
Residential driveway paving involves removing an existing asphalt driveway and installing a brand-new, durable surface. The old pavement is excavated and removed, the granular base is properly graded and compacted, and new hot mix asphalt is applied and compacted for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

High-quality asphalt materials are used to ensure strength, weather resistance, and daily vehicle durability. This process improves drainage, safety, and overall curb appeal. A professionally paved driveway enhances the value and appearance of your home while providing reliable performance for years to come.

SEALING
Residential driveway sealing is a protective maintenance service that helps extend the life and appearance of asphalt driveways. A high-quality asphalt sealer is hand-applied to create an even, durable protective layer. The sealer helps protect the driveway from weather, water penetration, UV damage, and everyday vehicle wear. It also restores a dark slate-black finish that improves curb appeal and keeps newer asphalt looking fresh.

These services are only available for homeowners in Oakville, Milton, and Burlington.

What is the Cost?

The cost of residential driveway paving or sealing depends on the size of the driveway, its condition, and the overall layout. A member of our team will visit the property to measure the area and evaluate factors such as slopes, edges, and accessibility. We also determine how much preparation and paving/sealing material will be required.

This allows us to recommend the best approach for long-lasting results. After the assessment, we provide a clear and accurate quote for the work.

Signs to Replace Your Driveway

Severe Cracking and Potholes

Alligator cracks and severe potholes indicate a failed base, which requires replacement rather than patching. This causes tire damage and tripping hazards. With a full replacement, your driveway will have a safe and smooth surface.

Poor Drainage and Pooling

Water accumulation after rainstorms indicate failed drainage due to sinking of the driveway or incorrect grading. This causes erosion of the sub-base and further cracks in the driveway. New asphalt installation solves this problem.

Age and Repeated Failures

Driveways that are 20+ years old, with faded color, signs of raveling, and crumbling edges, need replacement. Repaired driveways fail fast due to repeated freezing and thawing. New asphalt installation makes your driveway long-lasting and gives it a fresh new look.

Depressed or Sinking Areas

Sinking driveways near garages indicate soil settlement due to stress on the driveway. This causes dipping, which leads to further cracking of the driveway. Replacement of the driveway by excavation and new asphalt installation solves this problem.

Benefits of Sealing Your Driveway

Prevents Cracking

Asphalt driveway sealer seals the pores and locks out water, providing a completely waterproof surface against rain and freezing/thawing damage. This prevents new cracks from developing and prevents existing minor cracks from getting worse.

Protects Against UV Rays

Sealing protects against the sun’s ultraviolet rays, which cause oxidation, fading, and brittleness in the asphalt surface. Your driveway will stay blacker longer, resist crumbling, and remain flexible to withstand Ontario winters.

Resists Oil Spills and Stains

Sealcoating resists oil spills, gasoline, and other chemical stains from vehicles, which normally seep into the asphalt and cause damage. Your driveway will look like new with simple maintenance.

Extends Lifespan

Properly sealing your driveway will extend its lifespan up to twice its normal life expectancy, or 20 to 40+ years, against the ravages of the weather and wear and tear.
