How much does asphalt paving cost in Alamance County?
Pricing depends on the paved area, excavation or grading needs, asphalt depth, drainage, repair work, and whether sealcoating or striping is included. Request a written estimate that separates preparation, paving, and finishing costs.
What should I check before hiring a paving contractor?
Confirm that the contractor handles your project type, provides a written scope and estimate, and can explain drainage, base preparation, asphalt thickness, curing, and warranty terms. Commercial projects should also confirm striping and applicable specification requirements.
How long does a paving project usually take?
Small repairs may be completed in a day, while driveway or parking-lot paving can take longer when grading, drainage, demolition, or weather delays are involved. Ask for the expected preparation, paving, and curing schedule rather than only a start date.
Can a paving contractor handle potholes or pavement emergencies?
Pothole patching and asphalt repairs are routine services, but emergency response is not automatically included. Confirm response hours, temporary versus permanent repair methods, and whether the contractor offers after-hours service.
