This process starts from the ground up. Taking out all material down to the subbase and replacing with a geotextile fabric, stone base, and finally your fresh blacktop.
Are you looking for just an additional area done on your driveway or just to make the driveway wider? For all additional areas on driveway that are not currently stone or blacktop, excavation is required for a proper base.
Signs Your Driveway Needs to be excavated
Over time, driveways deteriorate from usage, the weather, and aging. This can cause noticeable imperfections that impact the safety and integrity of your driveway. If you notice any of the following signs, your driveway needs to be excavated.
- Dirt or mud coming through the stone or blacktop
- If you have a concrete driveway and you are looking for blacktop to replace it
- If the area you want blacktop is currently grass or dirt
