Asphalt & Blacktop Installation

A professionally paved driveway is an investment that adds value to your property and provides a pleasing focal point for visitors to your home.

If neglected, an old driveway forms pot holes and cracks that result from cold temperatures and high usage. Even worse, a neglected driveway can also result in sink holes, which can be initially caused by a poorly constructed foundation.

Always Affordable Chimney of Long Island provides asphalt & blacktop installation. As one of our several masonry services, our experts pride themselves on the beauty of their asphalt & blacktop installations.

Asphalt, also known as blacktop, is a mix of stones and sand with liquid asphalt cement. The material is heated, mixed and liquefied at approximately 300°F. It is then paved on top of a base or subgrade that has already been prepared.

Benefits of asphalt & blacktop installation:

• Less expensive and easier to replace than concrete
• Resistant to extreme weather
• Salt and ice melt does not damage asphalt
• Material can be recycled and re-used
• Water runoff is generally cleaner than with concrete
