How Asphalt Paving Greensboro Works

Asphalt Paving Greensboro builds and maintains asphalt driveways and small commercial lots in Greensboro and the surrounding Guilford County towns. The work covers new driveways, gravel-to-asphalt conversions, millings driveways, parking lots, overlays, sealcoating, patching and crack sealing.

Most of the asphalt failures we look at in the Triad begin underneath it. The Piedmont's red clay holds water after a storm, swells when wet and loses strength when it stays saturated. When asphalt is laid on that clay with a thin layer of stone, or with no slope to move water off, the result is alligator cracking, ruts where the tires run, and edges that crumble into the lawn. So each visit starts with the ground and the drainage. The asphalt comes after that.

At the estimate we measure the area, look at where water goes in a heavy rain, probe soft spots and check where the driveway meets the street. In Greensboro, building a driveway connection in the public right-of-way is covered by a city driveway permit, and on state-maintained roads NCDOT has its own process. We tell you at the visit whether your project reaches either one.

The written quote separates removal, base work, compacted asphalt thickness, edges, and any sealing or striping, with a price for each line. Nothing starts until you approve it, and any change in scope is written down for your sign-off first.

What you can expect

• Soft areas are dug out and rebuilt with compacted stone, not paved over.
• Base depth and asphalt thickness are stated in the quote.
• Paving is planned around ground temperature and rain, not a fixed calendar.
• New asphalt is not sealed until it has had months to cure.
• Parking lot layouts are checked against the 2010 ADA Standards when lines are repainted.
