Get a smooth, durable driveway with the best asphalt paving companies in Adelaide

Asphalt is an engineer’s best friend. After all, it’s durable and recyclable and provides a smooth surface for driving.

When I was building my new house, one part of the process that caught my attention was the driveway. I wanted something that wouldn’t just look great but would also stand the test of time.

With the help of my engineer brother, I was able to explore many paving options in Adelaide to help me with my project. Here are the best of what I found!

    Topcoat Asphalt differentiates itself by producing its own asphalt, having two factories (one in Lonsdale and one in Wingfield). The quality of their work is ensured through their certification from the National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA).

    The company has three decades of experience, having been founded in 1990. They also apply and seal asphalt for industrial, commercial, and residential use.

    Because they make their asphalt, they provide more affordable rates for big projects. They can also accommodate special asphalt design work.

    That said, a downside is that their appointment slots are limited. Also, their rates may not be ideal for single-household asphalt paving projects.

    Pros

    • Manufactures its own asphalt
    • Over three decades of experience
    • Affordable rates for big projects
    • Can accommodate special asphalt design work

    Cons

    • Limited appointment slots
    • Price not ideal for single-household asphalt paving

      Adelaide Bitumen provides extensive service coverage, spanning from the CBD to Limestone Coast and Kangaroo Island.

      It was founded in 1977, noteworthy for its comprehensive range of services. They can handle excavation, base course preparation, asphalt paving, and spray seal applications.

      Their asphalt trenching machine also provides faster and smoother work because its width goes as narrow as 300 mm.

      In addition, the company can provide different finishes for both newly paved asphalt and those fortified with spray sealing. This makes them ideal for projects with specific design needs.

      When it comes to downsides, however, they’ve received some complaints for rude service. Also, they take a couple of days to respond to their website’s contact form.
