Asphalt driveway installation in McLean, VA is straightforward with McLean Asphalt. Free on-site estimates, licensed and insured, serving Northern Virginia since 2009.
New installation starts with grading the site to the correct slope for drainage. We then compact a 4–6 inch stone base to give the asphalt a stable foundation.
A 3–4 inch layer of hot-mix asphalt is placed and compacted on top. Proper base work is what separates a driveway that lasts 20+ years from one that fails in a few winters.

New installation typically runs $3–$8 per square foot, often less than replacement since there's no old material to remove. Most residential jobs are completed in 1–2 days.
