Dependable Paving uses a 2-phase method for driveway installation.

In Phase 1, the following steps are followed

  • The area is excavated to 12″ below the finished grade
  • Geo-Textile fabric is installed
  • 10″ of runnercrush stone is installed and then power rolled
  • 3″ Binder layer of asphalt is installed and power rolled

In Phase 2 (within 2 years), the following steps are followed

  • Grass edges are trimmed
  • Any low areas are shimmed with asphalt and power rolled
  • The driveway is resurfaces with 1 1/2″ armorcoat topping and power rolled
  • The entire area is cleaned and barricaded
