Orléans homeowners rely on durable, properly constructed asphalt to handle Ottawa’s freeze-thaw cycles and varying soil conditions. A1 Top Hat provides professional driveway paving and asphalt services in Orléans, delivering long-lasting results through proper base preparation, drainage control, and quality materials.
Orléans features a mix of clay-based and leda clay deposits, particularly in older neighborhoods. These conditions can lead to driveway movement, cracking, and drainage issues when bases are not properly prepared. We rebuild and reinforce the granular base to ensure long-term stability before paving begins.
We specialize in residential asphalt driveways designed for daily car and light truck use. Our process includes excavation where required, base correction, and installation of HL3 fine hot mix asphalt at a 2.5-inch final compacted thickness for strength, smoothness, and longevity.
Improper pitch and settling near garage entrances are common in Orléans. We correct driveway slope from street to garage, eliminate low spots, and restore smooth transitions between asphalt and concrete to improve drainage and vehicle access.
We offer a full range of asphalt repair services including pothole repairs, cut-and-patch work, hot rubber crack repair, resurfacing, and protective sealing. These services help Orléans homeowners extend the life of their driveways and prevent costly future repairs.
