Asphalt Resurfacing - Beach Paving

Asphalt Resurfacing on Long Island, NY

If your existing asphalt surface is showing signs of wear—but the foundation is still solid—asphalt resurfacing is a smart, cost-effective way to restore its appearance and strength without tearing everything out. At Beach Paving, we provide expert asphalt resurfacing services in Nassau and Suffolk County, helping homeowners and businesses get a like-new surface for less.

Whether it’s a driveway with deep cracks or a parking lot that’s starting to fade and ravel, our resurfacing process adds a fresh layer of hot mix asphalt over the existing surface, sealing in durability and boosting curb appeal—without the time or expense of a full replacement.

What Is Asphalt Resurfacing?

Also called an asphalt overlay, resurfacing involves applying a new layer of asphalt (typically 1.5–2 inches thick) over your current pavement. It’s ideal for surfaces that are worn or cracked but have a stable sub-base. Unlike patching, which only treats isolated damage, resurfacing improves the entire surface—restoring uniformity, structure, and performance.

This solution is perfect for:

Signs You Need Asphalt Resurfacing

If your asphalt driveway or parking lot is worn out but the base is still structurally sound, resurfacing may be your best solution. It restores the look, safety, and performance of your pavement at a fraction of the cost of full replacement.

You may need asphalt resurfacing if you notice:

Widespread cracking, surface raveling, or brittle texture
Standing water or poor drainage after rainfall
Faded or oxidized asphalt with a dull, gray appearance
Uneven areas or shallow dips that cause tripping or pooling
Potholes or crumbling edges starting to spread
Your pavement is 10+ years old and showing consistent wear

At Beach Paving, we conduct a detailed inspection of your pavement and sub-base to determine if resurfacing is appropriate. We’ll give you a clear, no-pressure recommendation based on the true condition of your surface—never an upsell.

Why Resurfacing Is a Smart Investment

Resurfacing is one of the most cost-effective and efficient ways to extend the life of your pavement. Instead of ripping out and rebuilding, our resurfacing process restores your surface in less time, with less disruption, and for significantly less money.

It’s a smart option for homeowners, commercial properties, HOAs, and anyone who wants professional results without the downtime of full reconstruction. Most resurfacing projects can be completed in just one day, so your space is back in action quickly—with results that last.

Infrared Repair – Reheats and blends new asphalt into existing areas for seamless patches that don’t require full removal.

Common Questions About Our Service

How is asphalt resurfacing different from repaving or patching?

Asphalt resurfacing (also called an overlay) involves adding a new layer of asphalt over an existing paved surface. It’s different from repaving, which includes full removal and replacement, and from patching, which only repairs isolated problem areas. Resurfacing is ideal when the surface is worn but the base is still solid.

How long does an asphalt resurfacing project take?

Most resurfacing jobs can be completed in one to two days, depending on the size of the area and weather conditions. Compared to full replacement, resurfacing is faster and causes less disruption.

How long will resurfaced asphalt last?

With proper maintenance, a resurfaced asphalt driveway or parking lot can last 8 to 15 years. Regular sealcoating, drainage management, and minor repairs can help maximize that lifespan.

Can all asphalt surfaces be resurfaced?

Not always. If your existing surface has significant base damage, deep potholes, or serious drainage problems, resurfacing might not be enough. We always conduct a site inspection first to determine if your pavement is a candidate for an overlay or needs full reconstruction.

Is resurfacing more affordable than replacing asphalt?

Yes. Resurfacing typically costs 30–50% less than a full replacement, making it one of the most budget-friendly ways to restore your surface’s appearance and performance.

Will I need to leave the property or stop business operations?

Not necessarily. In most cases, we can schedule resurfacing in off-hours or phases to minimize disruption. We’ll work around your availability and access needs.
