How does driveway paving work in Chicago?

Driveway Paving in Chicago follows 4 clear steps, from remove and grade to a final walkthrough. A vetted local pro manages the schedule, keeps the site clean, and does not consider the job done until you are satisfied.

/01

Remove and grade

Old driveway is demolished and hauled away; the sub-base is graded for proper slope and drainage away from the home.

/02

Base preparation

Gravel is spread and compacted in lifts to create a stable, load-bearing foundation that won't shift under freeze-thaw cycles.

/03

Paving

Asphalt or concrete is placed, finished to smooth grade, and edges are formed cleanly against existing borders.

/04

Cure and seal

Asphalt is allowed to cure before sealing; concrete is cured and sealed at 28 days for maximum surface durability.

FAQ

Driveway Paving in Chicago: questions answered.

How much does driveway paving cost in Chicago?

In Chicago, driveway paving typically runs based on scope and materials. Pro House Maintenance gives every Chicago homeowner a free, fixed-price written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.

Should I choose asphalt or concrete for my driveway?

Asphalt costs less upfront and is easier to repair but needs sealing every three to five years. Concrete lasts longer and requires less maintenance but costs more initially and is harder to patch. Climate matters too. Asphalt handles freeze-thaw better than concrete without expansion joints.

How long before I can drive on a new driveway?

New asphalt needs 24 to 48 hours for light vehicles and three to five days for heavy trucks. Concrete needs at least seven days before vehicle traffic and 28 days for full strength. We provide written curing instructions with every project.
