Project Showcase – Driveway Paving in Newmarket

In this featured Newmarket driveway paving project, our team tackled a worn residential driveway in need of full replacement. The homeowner wanted a clean, modern surface that tied in seamlessly with existing landscaping and interlock.

Key Steps in This Project:

  1. Full Removal of Existing Asphalt
    We removed the old deteriorated driveway surface and evaluated the base layer for structural issues.
  2. Base Strengthening & Grading
    We re-graded the driveway to improve water flow and prevent pooling near the garage and sidewalk. Proper base preparation is essential for Newmarket’s freeze-thaw cycle.
  3. Precision Edge Work
    Notice in the image how the asphalt aligns perfectly with the concrete walkway on the right side—this ensures clean transitions, prevents erosion, and enhances overall aesthetics.
  4. Hot Mix Asphalt Installation
    We installed and compacted high-quality hot-mix asphalt, providing a smooth, uniform finish that elevates curb appeal.
  5. Clean Finish & Homeowner Review
    The final result is a crisp, even driveway surface that matches the property beautifully and increases long-term value.

This project is a perfect example of how professional driveway paving transforms a home exterior, blending durability with visual appeal.

How We Build Long-Lasting Driveways in Newmarket

Our driveway paving process ensures quality at every stage:

Step 1 — Site Assessment & Measurement

We evaluate soil conditions, slope, drainage, and structural issues.

Step 2 — Excavation & Base Preparation

Old asphalt is removed, and a strong granular base is installed and compacted.

Step 3 — Fine Grading

This step determines surface water flow—critical for preventing cracks and potholes.

Step 4 — Asphalt Installation

We apply hot-mix asphalt and ensure even distribution.

Step 5 — Final Compaction & Detailing

The driveway is rolled for a smooth finish, and edges are sealed cleanly.

This process ensures your driveway is built to withstand weather, weight, and wear.

FAQs – Driveway Paving Newmarket

How long does a new asphalt driveway last?

A properly installed asphalt driveway typically lasts 20–30 years, depending on maintenance and weather exposure.

Light vehicles can use the driveway within 24–48 hours. Avoid parking in the same spot for the first week.

Do you widen or extend driveways?
