DRIVEWAY PAVING
Defining Driveway Paving Essentials
Driveway paving builds a multi-layer setup: compacted subgrade, 6 to 8 inches of crushed aggregate base, and asphalt in binder plus surface courses. This creates flexible, weather-resistant paths. Full-depth options use 4 to 6 inches of asphalt alone on firm soils.
It outperforms gravel by offering smoothness and longevity. Semantic triple: Driveway paving strengthens home access through proper layering. Importance lies in preventing water damage and heave.
Fundamental elements:
Subgrade proof-rolling
Base compaction
Asphalt lifts matched to aggregate size
BENEFITS
Key Benefits of Driveway Paving
Driveway paving provides flexible strength ideal for freeze-thaw cycles, unlike rigid alternatives. It cuts initial costs by 20 to 40 percent while enhancing property aesthetics. Expect $7 to $13 per square foot for new setups.
For residences, it minimizes tripping hazards and vehicle wear. Triple: Driveway paving boosts safety with even textures.
Pursue driveway paving on stable soils with minor surface wear. It's suited for new builds or replacements showing alligator cracks. Steer clear if base failures demand full reconstruction. 2025 trends highlight polymer binders for crack resistance. Versus overlays, full paving adds structural depth. Insight: Check for frost heave risks in colder zones. VA Paving LLC assesses sites to recommend ideal approaches.
