Expert asphalt driveway installation on Long Island. Durable, affordable driveways built for NY weather. Free estimates from Brothers Paving & Masonry.
Asphalt is the most popular driveway material across Nassau and Suffolk County, offering an unbeatable combination of durability, affordability, and curb appeal. At Brothers Paving & Masonry, we specialize in full asphalt driveway installations engineered for Long Island's demanding climate, including freeze-thaw cycles, sandy coastal soils, and heavy rainfall.
Our process starts with a thorough site evaluation of your existing base, soil conditions, and drainage patterns. We excavate to the proper depth (typically eight to twelve inches), install a compacted aggregate base graded to direct water away from your home, then apply hot-mix asphalt in layers compacted with heavy rollers. Our standard residential installation uses a minimum of three inches of asphalt over six inches of compacted base.
With proper installation and drainage, a Brothers Paving asphalt driveway will serve your family for twenty years or more.
