“Tate Brothers paved our driveway and walkway in May and we are very happy with the job they did. They exhibited exceptional attention to detail from the surface smoothness and pitch of the driveway to the precise way the asphalt met the garage and front steps. Their very professional and hard working crew was a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend Tate Brothers Paving”

From ground preparation to finished asphalt

What Goes Into A New Asphalt Driveway?

A typical driveway project involves several stages. The exact scope and timing depend on the property and the work required.

Proper Base Preparation

The material and foundation beneath the asphalt matter. Our process includes preparing the area and building the base needed for the project.

Grading

The area is graded to establish the planned surface and account for site conditions.

Excavation And Base Preparation

Existing material is removed where necessary, and the foundation is prepared using appropriate materials for the project.

Asphalt Installation

The paving crew installs and compacts the asphalt to create the finished driveway surface.
