Jericho's wooded hill lots run long sloped driveways through maple woods under Mount Mansfield, and those drives take a beating from four to five feet of frost heave, spring mud season, and eighty inches of snow every winter.

Burlington Asphalt Paving has served Jericho and the surrounding Burlington area since 2011. We know the terrain here, the dense glacial till and marine clay that holds water and heaves hard, and we know what it takes to build a driveway that holds up. When your drive is cracking, sinking, or washing out, call us at (802) 214-7338 for a free on-site estimate.

Asphalt Paving in Jericho (05465)

Driveways in Jericho face real challenges. Your lot slopes through the woods, water runs off the hill, frost drives deep into the subgrade, and a plow passes every winter. A weak base fails fast here, and a shallow pad will heave and crack within a few years. We build drives to last by starting with proper grading and drainage, setting a compacted base to handle the frost, and laying asphalt thick enough for the load and the climate. Access matters too. A long wooded drive through the trees means we need room to maneuver a paver and a roller, and sometimes we need to stage equipment carefully to avoid damage to mature trees.

We have been paving driveways and private roads in Jericho and across the Burlington area since 2011. We understand the soil, the water, the snow, and the lot layouts. Our team is fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.

How a Job Works in Jericho

We start with a free on-site visit. We measure your driveway, look at the existing pavement or base, check drainage and grading, and talk through what you need. We provide a written estimate with tonnage and thickness specs so you know exactly what you are paying for. No surprises.

When the job starts, our crew prepares the site. If you need full-depth paving, we mill or remove the old surface, grade and compact the base, and lay new asphalt to the thickness we specified. If resurfacing makes sense, we mill the top layer and overlay with fresh material. For long sloped drives in the woods, we pay attention to water runoff and side slopes so rain does not pool or wash the edges. We coordinate with your HOA if you are in a master-planned community, and we help you navigate any local permitting through the Jericho building department.

When we are done, we clean up. Your property is left neat, and we walk through the finished drive with you so you understand what was done and how to care for it.

Pricing for asphalt work in Jericho depends on the size of the job, the condition of the base, and the thickness we build. A new residential driveway runs from around $6 per square foot. Resurfacing an existing drive costs from around $4 per square foot. Pothole and patch repairs start at $450. A full driveway replacement, which includes milling and a new base, runs from around $7 per square foot. Gravel driveway installation and grading start at $950. The best way to know your cost is a free on-site estimate. Call us at (802) 214-7338 with your address and a photo or two of your drive, and we will schedule a visit. We measure the job, assess the base and drainage, and give you a written quote with tonnage and thickness so you can compare honestly.

My driveway on the hill lot is heaving and cracking every spring. Is this normal in Jericho, and what causes it?

Yes, it is common here. Jericho sits on dense glacial till and marine clay over ledge rock. Frost pushes four to five feet deep in winter, and when that frozen ground thaws in spring, it heaves and shifts. If your driveway base is weak or shallow, the pavement cracks and sinks. The solution is a properly compacted base, good side drainage so water does not pool under the pavement, and asphalt laid thick enough to flex with the ground movement. If your drive is already damaged, we can patch isolated cracks, but if the cracking is widespread (alligator pattern), the base is likely compromised and resurfacing or replacement is the honest answer.

A pothole opened up in my driveway after the heavy rain this spring. Can you patch it, or do I need a new driveway?

A single pothole can be patched. We clean out the hole, compact the base if it is soft, and fill it with hot mix asphalt. The repair holds if the base around it is sound. If your driveway has multiple potholes or widespread cracking, patching throws money away and resurfacing is the better choice. Call us at (802) 214-7338 and we will come look at it. A pothole repair starts at $450.

How much does it cost to pave a new driveway in Jericho?

A new driveway in Jericho runs from around $6 per square foot, depending on the square footage, the base condition, and the slope and drainage work needed. A typical 12 by 50 foot residential drive is 600 square feet, so ballpark $3,600 to $4,200 for the asphalt alone, plus any grading or base work. A long sloped drive through the woods may need more grading. We provide a free estimate with all the details. Call (802) 214-7338.

Do I need a permit from the town of Jericho to pave or repave my driveway?

Permitting rules vary by municipality. In some towns, a driveway apron (the section where your drive meets the road), a curb cut, or a culvert requires a permit from the local building department. If your driveway is in an HOA community, the HOA may have architectural standards for materials and extensions. We recommend you call the Jericho building department or your HOA before you commit to a job, and we can help you navigate the process. Vermont 811 utility locates are required by law before any excavation, including grading and extensions, so we always arrange those before we dig.

My driveway is shared with a neighbor. Do we both have to agree to pave it, and who pays?

Property line and cost-sharing rules depend on the deed and the history of maintenance. If the driveway is truly shared (both properties have rights to it), both owners typically have to agree to a major repair or replacement, and costs are often split. If one owner has maintained it historically, that may create an expectation. We recommend you review your deed and talk to your neighbor before you call us. If there is a dispute, a real estate attorney is the right resource. Once you and your neighbor agree on the work, we can pave the whole drive and you sort out payment between you.

Are you fully insured for paving work on my property?

Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Our team is protected, and your property is protected if anything goes wrong during the job. We are a local Jericho-based crew and we have been operating since 2011.

I just had a new driveway paved. Can I seal it right away to protect it?

No. New asphalt needs time to cure before any sealing. We recommend you wait at least six to twelve months, depending on the weather and how much sun and traffic the drive gets. During that cure period, the asphalt hardens and the oils set. Sealing too early traps moisture and can cause problems. Once the drive is fully cured, regular maintenance like cleaning and crack filling will extend its life. Ask us about maintenance when we finish your job.
