Reliable asphalt. Trusted partners.
An asphalt driveway functions similarly to a concrete one but with a significantly lower price tag. Asphalt’s flexibility suits regions with colder weather, like central Washington State. Homeowners need to find a driveway paving company that can meet their needs.
When choosing an asphalt contractor for driveway installation on your residential property, quality and attention to detail are essential. At Central Paving, we understand the importance of a well-done paving job. It’s not just about how it looks; it’s about making sure it lasts and doesn’t cause problems later.

Consider your needs with options including driveway paving for a brand new look, replacement for a revamped surface, or overlay for existing driveways in good condition. Each choice offers distinct advantages to various preferences and budgets.
Opting for a new driveway involves laying down fresh pavement on prepared ground. The process begins with grading and leveling the surface to ensure proper drainage. Next, a base layer of aggregate material is compacted to provide a stable foundation. Then, hot mix asphalt is applied and compacted using heavy machinery to create a smooth surface. Finally, the newly paved area is left to set and cure.
When replacing an existing driveway, the old pavement is removed and hauled away before laying down new pavement. This process involves breaking up the existing pavement, clearing away debris, and preparing the ground for installation. After the old materials are removed, the installation follows a similar process to that of a new driveway, including grading, base layer installation, and application of fresh asphalt.
Overlaying with new asphalt is cost-effective if the current pavement is in decent condition. This process begins by grinding down the existing surface with milling machines and then repairing any damage to the base layer. Next, they pave the prepared area with fresh material. The new pavement is compacted to create a smooth finish without extensive groundwork. This method can provide a fresh appearance and extend the pavement’s lifespan without the expense of complete replacement.
Plan on 24 to 72 hours before regular vehicle traffic, and longer in hot weather. Avoid heavy vehicles and sharp turning for the first few weeks.
With a sound base, drainage that moves water away, and routine crack sealing, an asphalt driveway commonly lasts many years. Freeze-thaw cycles and standing water shorten that life.
Most guidance is to wait about six months to a year so the asphalt can cure before sealcoating. Ask us when it makes sense for your driveway.
