FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long will my new driveway last?
Depending on the quality and thickness of the road base and existing soil conditions, it should last between 15 to 20 years minimum, and up to 25–40 years with occasional maintenance such as crack sealing.
Can I drive over it straight away?
You can drive over it the following day, being mindful of turning. Further details are provided on the aftercare instructions we leave with you when the job is complete.
Can tree roots come through my new driveway?
Yes, unfortunately they can. This is something we’ll discuss with you during the site visit so we can advise on the best approach for your specific situation.
How long does it take to do a driveway?
It depends on the size. Prep work will on average take one day, and asphalt laying takes 1–2 days. Anticipate a minimum of 2 days in total, subject to weather conditions.
What sort of guarantee do I have?
There is a 12-month guarantee on all our work. If issues were to surface, they will arise within the first 1–2 months. We stand behind every job we complete.
I can see white lines on my new driveway — what are they?
Occasionally the metal drums on the roller will leave a “white” edging. It is common to see white and rust-coloured stains on freshly sealed asphalt — this comes from mineral salts in water, gravel and dirt. These marks are all temporary and should vanish within the first few months.
How much does an asphalt driveway cost?
Costs vary based on size and preparation required. Asphalt is typically 2–3× cheaper than concrete. Most residential driveways fall between $3,000–$12,000. Contact us for a free site-specific quote — no hidden costs, ever.
Do you offer red or coloured asphalt?
Yes. We offer red-brown asphalt — a hot mix formula with a soft, elegant appearance that complements many Queensland homes and acreage properties beautifully. It’s particularly popular in the hinterland areas.
Do you service regional areas?
Yes, we service all of South-East Queensland including Gympie, Ipswich, Caboolture, Moreton Bay and surrounds. Based in Eudlo, we’re already well-positioned for the full Sunshine Coast region and surrounding areas.
Can you handle steep or difficult access driveways?
Absolutely. We hand and machine lay asphalt, which means we can handle tight-access jobs and steep sites that others won’t take on. With 35+ years experience and 5,000+ driveways completed, very little surprises us. Call us and we’ll give you an honest assessment.
