Existing material is excavated to proper depth, subgrade is compacted, and a gravel base is installed and compacted.

03

Paving

Asphalt is laid hot and compacted with a roller, or concrete is poured, finished, and control joints are cut. Edges are formed clean.

Driveway Paving & Repair FAQ for Kauai Homeowners

How often should Kauai homeowners get driveway paving & repair?
Given Kauai's interior mount wai'ale'ale receives 450 inches of rain — wettest spot on earth, most homeowners benefit from driveway paving & repair at least once a year. Year-round mold on north shore windward properties often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Kauai most need driveway paving & repair?
Plantation-style homes throughout interior and north shore and Luxury vacation homes and condos in Po'ipu and Princeville are the most common home types in Kauai and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Asphalt vs. concrete — which should I choose?
Asphalt: lower upfront cost ($3–$7/sq ft), easier to repair, softer in extreme heat, lasts 20–30 years with maintenance. Concrete: higher upfront cost ($6–$12/sq ft), more durable, harder to repair seamlessly, lasts 30–50 years.
How long does a new driveway last?
Asphalt lasts 20–30 years with proper maintenance including periodic sealing. Concrete lasts 30–50 years. Both depend heavily on subbase quality and drainage.
Can a cracked driveway be repaired?
Yes, though results vary. Crack filling and patching extend life. Significantly deteriorated driveways with widespread cracking, heaving, or base failure are more economically replaced.
Why do driveways sink or crack?
Poor subbase preparation, inadequate drainage, root intrusion, freeze-thaw cycling, and heavy vehicle loads are common causes. Proper base installation during paving is the best long-term investment.
