Tear out the old. Pave it right this time.
Full removal of a failed driveway, repair of the base underneath and a brand-new asphalt surface, for driveways that are too far gone to patch or overlay.
- Process: Remove, rebuild base, repave
- Disposal: Old asphalt hauled away
- Typical job time: 1 to 3 days
What it is, and why it matters.
When a driveway is covered in alligator cracking, sinking in the wheel paths or crumbling at the edges, the problem usually reaches below the asphalt. A new surface on a failing base fails again, so replacement means removing the old pavement, fixing the base and soft spots, and building the driveway back correctly.
We saw-cut clean edges where needed, haul away the old material and regrade for proper drainage. For many Nashville homes, replacement is also the chance to widen the drive, fix a bad slope at the street or add an apron that is easier on your bumper. We explain honestly when an overlay would do and when only replacement will last.

Driveway Replacement: common questions
Should I replace or resurface my driveway?
If the pavement is mostly sound with minor cracks, resurfacing is usually enough. If there is widespread alligator cracking, deep ruts or base failure, replacement is the lasting fix. A short site visit tells us which applies to your driveway.
Do you haul away the old asphalt?
Yes. Removal and disposal are part of a replacement job, and the old asphalt can often be recycled.
