A complete driveway replacement gives the contractor an opportunity to remove deteriorated pavement and evaluate what is happening underneath the old asphalt.
Remove the Old Asphalt
The old pavement is removed as part of the replacement process rather than simply covering widespread deterioration with another surface.
Evaluate the Existing Base
Once the old asphalt is removed, the condition of the underlying stone or aggregate base can be considered.
Prepare, Grade & Compact
The driveway is prepared according to the property conditions, including grading and compaction where required.
Install New Asphalt
The replacement driveway receives new asphalt after the underlying preparation work has been completed.
Compact & Finish
The new asphalt surface is compacted and finished before the replacement project is completed.
Driveway replacement creates an opportunity to address preparation and base conditions that may have contributed to deterioration of the old pavement.

Whether existing asphalt can remain in place depends on its condition, elevation, drainage, base stability, and the overall project. Severely deteriorated pavement may require removal.
Does the old driveway have to be removed?
Removal requirements depend on the existing driveway and planned project, but failed pavement should not simply be ignored underneath new asphalt.
What happens to the base under the driveway?
After old asphalt is removed, the underlying base can be evaluated for stability, soft areas, grading, drainage, and preparation needs.
Can drainage problems be addressed during replacement?
Replacing a driveway creates an opportunity to evaluate grading and drainage conditions before the new asphalt surface is installed.
How long does driveway replacement take?
There is no single replacement timeline for every driveway. Larger projects or properties requiring substantial preparation can require additional time.
How much does driveway replacement cost in Hawthorne?
Replacement cost depends on driveway size, old pavement removal, disposal, base condition, grading, drainage, access, and new asphalt requirements.
Should a new replacement driveway be sealcoated?
Newly installed asphalt generally needs time before sealcoating is considered. The appropriate timing depends on the pavement and sealcoat requirements, so the new asphalt should be evaluated before maintenance treatment is applied.
