McLean's Asphalt Paving Contractor for Driveways, Parking Lots & Commercial Properties

New Driveway Installation for McLean's Custom Home Market

McLean has become the DC Metro area's busiest teardown market — hundreds of colonial-era homes built in the 1950s through 1980s are being demolished every year and replaced with custom-built luxury homes. Every one of those new builds needs a new driveway, and McLean Asphalt is the contractor of choice for custom home builders and homeowners in Langley, Salona Village, Chesterbrook, and across the Georgetown Pike corridor.

  • New construction driveways graded and installed from subgrade up
  • 6-inch compacted stone base for new builds — no cutting corners on foundation
  • 3–4 inch hot-mix asphalt surface course, compacted with vibratory roller
  • Proper drainage slope built into every install — poor drainage cuts driveway lifespan in half
  • Driveway aprons, curb cuts, and entrance coordination handled with VDOT when required

HOA Communities and Commercial Properties

McLean Asphalt provides full-service commercial paving for HOA communities, apartment complexes, retail centers, and office parks across Fairfax County. Established McLean neighborhoods — Chesterbrook, Franklin Park, Ballantrae, and Evans Mill — rely on professional paving contractors to maintain shared roads, parking areas, and common driveways. One HOA contract typically covers multiple surfaces: parking lots, fire lanes, speed bumps, and annual sealcoating maintenance.

  • Parking lot paving, resurfacing, and full-depth replacement
  • Parking lot striping — $5–$20 per stall, ADA-compliant layouts included
  • Speed bump installation and fire lane marking
  • Commercial sealcoating — $0.25–$0.60 per square foot for lots
  • Annual maintenance programs available for HOA and property management clients

The Asphalt Maintenance Lifecycle — Protect Your Investment

A properly maintained asphalt driveway lasts 20–30 years. Without maintenance, that lifespan drops to 8–12 years. The difference comes down to one thing: sealcoating every 2–3 years to protect against UV degradation, water penetration, and freeze-thaw cracking. Northern Virginia's winters — where pavement temperatures drop below freezing while roads stay wet — accelerate surface cracking faster than most of the country. McLean Asphalt handles the full maintenance lifecycle so you never have to think about it.

  • Sealcoating: $0.15–$0.35 per sq ft — protects the surface from UV, oil, and water
  • Crack filling: $100–$300 per visit — stop water intrusion before it widens into a pothole
  • Pothole repair: $100–$400 per pothole depending on size and repair method
  • Resurfacing at $2–$4 per sq ft extends life 10–15 years vs. full replacement at $4–$10
  • Annual inspection program — we flag issues early before small cracks become major repairs

Why Asphalt — Not Concrete — for Northern Virginia Driveways

Concrete driveways cost $6–$12 per square foot installed and take 7 days to cure before you can drive on them. Asphalt costs $4–$10 per sq ft, is ready for light traffic in 48–72 hours, and handles Northern Virginia's freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete. Asphalt flexes slightly as ground heaves in winter, while concrete cracks and requires expensive panel replacement. For the McLean climate, asphalt is the practical and cost-effective choice for most residential driveways.

Asphalt Resurfacing vs. Full Replacement

If your driveway is cracking but the base is still structurally sound, resurfacing at $2–$4 per square foot extends the life by 10–15 years without the cost of a full replacement. Full replacement makes sense when the base has failed — you'll see alligator cracking, large depressions, or sections that flex underfoot. McLean Asphalt evaluates every driveway honestly and recommends the right scope, not the most expensive one.

Serving McLean's Most Established Neighborhoods

Many of McLean's older neighborhoods — Salona Village, McLean Hamlet, and the estates along Georgetown Pike — have driveways installed 30 to 50 years ago that are now past their useful life. At McLean Asphalt we know these neighborhoods well. We understand the mature tree canopy, tight turn radii on older lots, and the drainage challenges that come with sloped terrain. Our crews have paved hundreds of driveways in McLean and surrounding Fairfax County communities.

No Permit Required for Most Driveway Work in Fairfax County

According to Fairfax County Land Development Services, a permit is not required for standard residential driveway replacement or resealcoating. Exceptions apply for driveways over 2,500 square feet, elevated structures, or work that creates a new curb cut onto a public road — in those cases a VDOT permit is required. McLean Asphalt handles all permit coordination on your behalf when required, so your project starts without delay.

Asphalt Paving FAQ

How much does a new asphalt driveway cost in McLean, VA?
New asphalt driveway installation in Northern Virginia runs $4–$10 per square foot depending on thickness and base preparation requirements. A single-car driveway (200 sq ft) costs approximately $1,000; a standard double-car driveway (800 sq ft) runs approximately $4,800.

Do I need a permit to pave my driveway in Fairfax County?
No permit is required for standard residential driveway replacement or sealcoating in Fairfax County, according to Fairfax County Land Development Services. Exceptions apply for driveways over 2,500 square feet, elevated driveways, or projects that create a new curb cut onto a public road — those may require a VDOT permit. McLean Asphalt handles all permit coordination on your behalf when required at no additional charge.
How long after paving can I drive on my new asphalt driveway?
You can walk on new asphalt after 24 hours. Passenger cars should stay off for at least 48–72 hours. Trucks, SUVs, and heavy vehicles should wait up to 7 days. Full curing takes 6–12 months — during that period avoid sharp objects like kickstands, high heels, and jack stands that can leave indentations, especially in summer heat when the surface stays softer longer.
How long does an asphalt driveway last?
A properly maintained asphalt driveway lasts 20–30 years. Without maintenance — particularly sealcoating — that drops to 8–12 years. The biggest factor is sealcoating every 2–3 years, which protects the surface from UV degradation, water penetration, and oil damage. Catching cracks early and filling them before water gets in can extend driveway life by 10+ years.
Is it better to resurface or replace my asphalt driveway?
Resurfacing costs $2–$4 per square foot and extends driveway life by 10–15 years when the base is still structurally sound. Full replacement at $4–$10 per sq ft is the right call when the base has failed — signs include alligator cracking, large depressions, or sections that flex or sink underfoot. McLean Asphalt evaluates every driveway on-site and recommends the most cost-effective scope for your situation.
How much does asphalt sealcoating cost?
Residential driveway sealcoating costs $0.15–$0.35 per square foot, or $150–$350 for a typical 1,000 sq ft driveway. Commercial parking lot sealcoating runs $0.25–$0.60 per sq ft depending on lot size and surface condition. Most sealcoating projects are completed in a single day; the surface is ready for vehicle traffic in 24–48 hours after application.
