Replacing an asphalt driveway involves more than installing a new layer of pavement. The existing driveway, underlying base, grading, drainage, and property conditions should all be considered.
Remove the Old Asphalt
Deteriorated asphalt is removed so the existing driveway base and underlying conditions can be evaluated.
Evaluate the Existing Base
The driveway base plays an important role in supporting the new asphalt surface and should be evaluated during replacement.
Prepare, Grade & Compact
Proper preparation helps establish the shape, drainage, and support needed before new asphalt is installed.
Install New Asphalt
The replacement driveway receives new asphalt after the underlying preparation work has been completed.
Compact & Finish
The newly installed asphalt is compacted and finished to create the completed driveway surface.
Driveway replacement creates an opportunity to address preparation and base conditions that may have contributed to deterioration of the old pavement.

How much does driveway replacement cost in Hickman?
