Asphalt Paving – The 30 Year Investment
Asphalt is an excellent paving material for driveways, parking lots, and just about any surface that doesn’t have to support heavy industrial traffic. First, its slate black color is far more attractive than concrete and adds an important boost in a home’s curb appeal. Secondly it’s softer than concrete which means it’s quieter and just as importantly, it can adjust to subbase expansion and contraction due to soil freezing and thawing. Lastly, it’s durable. A professionally installed and maintained asphalt surface will last 20 to 30 years.
So, if asphalt lasts three decades, why is your driveway full of cracks or potholes? The answer usually can be tracked back to its installation. If the subbase was improperly prepared, unresolved drainage or compaction issues can cause the soil to buckle or sink putting excessive stress on the asphalt that sits on top of it. A poor-quality asphalt at installation will also shorten the service life. Asphalt is made up of 5% asphalt cement (a viscous petroleum product) and 95% aggregate like sand, stone and gravel. If the asphalt that was installed on your drive was thin on asphalt and long on aggregate, it won’t have the strength it should.
Probably the most common reason an asphalt driveway starts to fail is a lack of maintenance. It doesn’t take much to care for asphalt, but you can’t skip it without consequences. About every three years it needs to have a sealant applied. A sealant protects the chemicals in asphalt from degrading and protects it from UV rays. It doesn’t take much work. While we offer that service, some Bristow homeowners are willing to blow a weekend and do it themselves.
One thing is for sure. Once your drive develops cracks, low spots, potholes, or starts to crumble, it won’t self-heal. You need an honest asphalt paving contractor to make professional repairs. In Bristow, Standard Paving is that contractor.

Why Standard Paving is Bristow’s Go-to Asphalt Paving Company
When people deal with a service that they infrequently use like a plumber, a lawyer, or a roofer, there are usually two things that are key to making a decision, price and trust. Often times, trust trumps price. The reason residents of Bristow call Standard Paving, is because their neighbors have recommended them. Not only are they an honest paving company, they deliver professional products and they do it for a surprisingly affordable price.
And then there’s the way Standard Paving treats customers. Every business claims to have great customer service but at Standard Paving it’s a way of life. Everyone at Standard Paving understands that reputation and referrals are the reasons they have a job to go to in the morning. Exceeding customer expectations is more than just a slogan with Standard paving, it’s a business model. One that has worked for over three decades.
Knowledgeable, customer friendly estimators, simple to understand guaranteed fixed price asphalt paving estimates and warrantied work are some of the things customers see that reinforce Standard Paving’s reputation for customer care. What they can’t see includes:
- A professional company that holds a Virginia Class A Contractor license.
- A company that carries $2 million in liability insurance and workman’s compensation insurance.
- A company that owns all of its state-of-the-art asphalt paving equipment including self-leveling pavers, asphalt distribution trucks, excavation equipment, commercial compactors, dump trucks etc.
- A company that employs true professionals that take extraordinary pride in the work they do.
- A company who doesn’t outsource anything, not equipment and certainly not labor.
When you combine an almost fanatic preoccupation with satisfying the customer with all the tools needed to deliver superior asphalt paving products, you get an asphalt paving contractor that earns go-to status in Bristow.
