Asphalt paving is a relatively fast and economical solution to finish your driveway and boost your home’s curb appeal.
A solid foundation of a minimum 10 inch granular base and proper compaction is crucial for an asphalt driveway’s lifetime of 15-20 years.
We use a minimum 10 inches of granular along with proper compaction to achieve a solid base. Without a solid base, your asphalt driveway will not have the strength it needs to last its maximum lifetime. Murray Landscaping offers asphalt driveway paving in Ottawa and surrounding areas. We can help with peel and paves as well as new base and pave projects. Or if you have your current driveway ready with a 10” base or more, we can grade it and pave it.

Things to Know About Asphalt Paved Driveways
Understand that in Ottawa with our drastic climate, a minimum base of 10 inches is recommended to maintain a typical lifetime of 15-20 years. Asphalt lifetime also depends on maintenance, wear and tear, soil type and weight of vehicles.
Asphalt is one of the most recycled materials in North America.
