New Asphalt Driveways in Gorham
Ready to leave your gravel driveway behind?
A properly installed asphalt driveway provides a smooth, finished surface that's easier to maintain and plow during a Maine winter.
Before asphalt goes down, it's important to consider the existing base, grading, drainage, and overall condition of the site. Proper preparation helps give the finished driveway a solid foundation.
Replace Your Old Asphalt Driveway
Eventually, patching an old driveway stops being the most practical solution.
If your Gorham driveway has extensive cracking, low spots, deteriorating edges, potholes, or uneven areas, it may be time to consider resurfacing or replacement.
We'll evaluate what's happening beneath the surface rather than simply covering up the visible problem.
Paving Longer & Rural Driveways
Gorham includes properties with driveway layouts that can be very different from those in more densely developed communities.
Longer driveways require careful planning around slope, drainage, base preparation, turnaround areas, and how vehicles will regularly use the surface.
Our team can evaluate the property and develop a paving plan appropriate for the site.
Gorham Driveway Paving FAQs
Can you pave long driveways in Gorham, Maine?
Yes. Longer residential driveways can be paved, but the site should first be evaluated for grading, drainage, base conditions, accessibility, and the amount of asphalt required.
Is asphalt a good option for a rural driveway?
Asphalt can be an excellent option for many rural properties because it provides a smooth, durable surface and can be easier to plow and maintain than an unpaved driveway.
Why is the base underneath an asphalt driveway important?
The base supports the asphalt above it. Inadequate or unstable base material can contribute to sinking, cracking, and premature deterioration even if the asphalt surface itself was installed properly.
Can you widen my existing driveway while repaving it?
Depending on the property, driveway widening or extensions may be possible as part of a paving project. The additional area will need appropriate excavation, base preparation, grading, and compaction.
Are there driveway requirements in Gorham?
Yes, certain driveway and private-way projects are subject to local standards. Gorham's current standards include requirements involving driveway access and paved aprons in certain circumstances, so applicable requirements should be checked before construction begins.

These guys are amazing. Joe did all we contracted for and more. He made a couple suggestions which turned out to be great ones, -clearly a result of being 3rd gen paver and treating our driveway like it was his. Not only was Joe very professional, his team was too. No slackers on that crew and it's clear he's built a positive and caring culture for his team. Absolutely no regrets and would hire him again if ever needed.

Joe and his crew did a quality job on our driveway. They did exactly what was called for in the quote and went above and beyond on their efforts. They arrived first thing in the morning and hit the ground running until completing the job that evening. I'm very happy with our new driveway and thank you. I would highly recommend Asphalt Experts for any paving job you may need.
