Asphalt Paving in Point Pleasant, NJ

Asphalt paving in Point Pleasant covers a borough surrounded by water. The Manasquan River forms the northern boundary, and the Point Pleasant Canal, finished in 1925 as the northernmost leg of the Intracoastal Waterway, cuts the borough in half. The 2020 census counted 18,941 residents and 8,485 housing units on about 3.5 square miles of land, with about 16 percent of the borough's area under water.

Waterfront lots

Homes along the river, the canal and the bay coves sit on low ground with a high water table. Driveways there need a deeper, firm base and a surface that drains to the street. Low spots that hold water after storms are where cracking and potholes start.

Older neighborhoods

Inland, most of Point Pleasant was built out decades ago. Many driveways have been overlaid more than once and sit above garage floors or walks. Milling or removing the old layers and paving once at the right height is often the best fix.

Borough streets

The borough maintains about 64 of its 78 miles of road. Route 88 runs through to Route 35, crossing the canal on a lift bridge that can open up to 300 times a day in summer. Summer traffic makes spring and fall the easiest times for driveway work on busy streets.

Boats and trailers

With the river, canal and bay all close by, many Point Pleasant driveways hold a boat on a trailer for part of the year. We build those sections thicker and recommend boards under the jack and wheels.

Winter work

Some repairs, like cold-patching a pothole, can happen in winter, but paving and sealing need warmer, dry weather. We schedule full jobs from spring to fall and handle emergency patches in between.

Neighborhood scheduling

On borough streets with similar-age homes, neighbors often coordinate paving or sealing to share setup costs.
