Driveway Paving Services
Every driveway project starts with an honest assessment and a detailed written estimate. We recommend the most cost-effective solution — not the most expensive one.
New Driveway Installation
Full new asphalt driveway from scratch — excavation, grading, aggregate base, and 3" compacted hot-mix asphalt. Built to last 20–30 years.
Driveway Replacement
Remove and replace your existing failed driveway. We haul away the old material, rebuild the base, and install new asphalt with proper drainage.
Asphalt Overlay / Resurfacing
When your base is still sound, a 1.5"–2" overlay adds years of life at a fraction of full replacement cost. Ideal for driveways with surface cracking but solid sub-base.
Hillside & Steep Driveway Paving
Marin County's hillside driveways require specialized grading, drainage planning, and equipment. We've paved hundreds of steep residential driveways throughout the county.
Driveway Widening & Extensions
Add a second lane, extend your driveway to a new garage, or widen the apron. We match the new asphalt to your existing surface for a seamless result.
Driveway Repair & Patching
Targeted repairs for potholes, alligator cracking, and edge failures. When full replacement is not yet needed, we extend your driveway life with precision repairs.
Our Paving Process
Free On-Site Estimate
We visit your property, assess the existing surface and base, measure the area, and provide a detailed written estimate — no pressure, no obligation.
Site Preparation
We remove the old pavement (if replacing), grade the sub-base for proper drainage, and compact a solid aggregate base. This is the most critical step for long-term durability.
Asphalt Installation
We lay 3" of hot-mix asphalt and compact it with a vibratory roller for a smooth, dense surface. Edges are hand-tamped for clean, defined borders.
Final Inspection
We walk the finished driveway with you, confirm drainage is correct, and provide care instructions. Your written warranty is included with every job.
