Professional Paving Company Process

Here's How Your Project Unfolds

We start with a site evaluation to understand drainage, soil conditions, and your specific needs. This determines material selection and installation approach before we give you a final estimate.

Preparation is where most projects succeed or fail. We excavate to proper depth, install appropriate base materials, and ensure proper grading for water management. No shortcuts here.

Installation follows industry standards with attention to pattern alignment, joint spacing, and edge restraints. We finish with compaction and any requested sealcoating to protect your investment long-term.

Paver Patterns and Sealcoating

What's Included in Your Installation

Every driveway installation includes proper excavation, base preparation, and professional-grade materials selected for Long Island conditions. We handle permits, material delivery, and complete cleanup.

You get options for paver patterns, colors, and finishes that work with your home’s style. Herringbone, basket weave, running bond – we’ll walk through what makes sense for your space and traffic patterns.

Sealcoating is available as an add-on service to extend material life and enhance appearance. We recommend timing based on your specific installation and local weather patterns.

How long does a typical driveway installation take in Captree Island?

Most residential driveway installations take 3-5 days depending on size and complexity. Weather can extend timelines, especially during winter months when ground conditions affect excavation and base work. We schedule projects with realistic timeframes and keep you updated on any delays. Site preparation typically takes 1-2 days, base installation another day, and paver installation and finishing 1-2 days. Larger or more complex projects with extensive drainage work may require additional time.

What paver materials work best for coastal Long Island weather?

Concrete pavers and natural stone both perform well here when properly installed. Concrete pavers offer consistent sizing and color options, while natural stone provides unique appearance with excellent durability. The key is proper installation with adequate base preparation and drainage. We avoid materials that absorb excessive moisture or have poor freeze-thaw resistance. Salt air exposure isn’t typically a major factor for driveway materials, but proper sealcoating can extend life and maintain appearance for both concrete and stone options.

Do I need permits for driveway installation in Captree Island?

Most driveway replacements don’t require permits if you’re staying within existing boundaries and not changing drainage patterns. New driveways or significant expansions typically need town approval. We handle permit applications when required and ensure all work meets local codes. Setback requirements, drainage management, and impervious surface limits are the main considerations. We review your specific situation during the initial consultation and advise on any permit requirements before starting work.

How much does professional driveway installation cost on Long Island?

Costs vary based on size, materials, site conditions, and complexity. Basic concrete paver installations start around $12-15 per square foot, while premium materials and complex patterns can reach $20+ per square foot. Extensive excavation, drainage work, or difficult access increases costs. We provide detailed written estimates after evaluating your specific site. This includes all materials, labor, permits, and cleanup. No hidden fees or surprise charges – you know the total cost before we start.

When should I seal my new paver driveway?

New paver installations should cure for 60-90 days before initial sealing. This allows pavers to settle and any efflorescence to appear and weather away naturally. After that, sealing every 2-3 years maintains appearance and provides stain protection. Coastal exposure may require more frequent sealing due to salt and moisture. We use penetrating sealers that protect without creating slippery surfaces. The timing depends on your specific installation, traffic patterns, and material type.

What happens if my new driveway develops problems?

Properly installed paver driveways rarely develop significant issues, but we stand behind our work. Minor settling in the first year is normal and easily corrected by adding sand and re-compacting affected areas. Drainage problems or major shifting indicate installation issues that we’ll address at no charge. We provide clear warranties on both materials and workmanship. Most problems stem from inadequate base preparation or poor drainage design – areas where we don’t cut corners. Regular maintenance like joint sand replenishment prevent most long-term issues.
