Asphalt driveways are also convenient and cost-effective. A well-designed, properly-sloped blacktop absorbs heat, melting snow, and ice more quickly than other surfaces do. Melt water and rain run off the surface, keeping you and your vehicles cleaner and drier than other kinds of surfaces will. Inclement weather and seasonal changes, coupled with traffic wear-and-tear can quickly turn dirt and gravel driveways into a dangerous maze of ruts, washouts, and potholes, but with proper care, your blacktop driveway, access road, or parking lot will require little maintenance, lasting for years to come.
With Roca Surfacing, you can eliminate the worry and hassle of hiring a myriad of subcontractors who may not appreciate the scope of the entire project, lack the equipment or workforce, or are likely to not work well with other subcontractors. The experienced, integrated workforce of engineering, road-building, underground utility, and paving teams at Roca Surfacing understand that no two residential projects are alike. That's why we spend time carefully evaluating your property, addressing your needs and desires, and incorporating local inspection and bylaw requirements into a flexible plan that fits your budget and time frame from start to finish.
We take care of all the details, such as:
- Checking for overhead and underground utilities before the project begins
- Excavation
- Grading, shaping, and compacting existing sub-base
- Laying appropriate membrane fabrics for your soil conditions
- Installing culverts, storm drains, and/or gutters
- Installing, upgrading, or re-routing underground utilities as needed
- Hauling in the new sub-base granular fill, grading and compacting it

- Asphalt repair and replacement.
