Barrie winters are harder than the GTA's, and everything about a driveway here is decided by whether water can leave it before it freezes. We build the base and pitch the surface with that as the first requirement.
Allandale and the Lakeshore streets are older, close to Kempenfelt Bay, and their asphalt has taken more freeze-thaw than most. Those are usually replacements rather than repairs.
Painswick and Holly are newer builds with thin surfaces already going at the edges. We rebuild to a proper base, self-performed and insured to $5M. Ardagh and the streets backing onto the bluffs bring longer lots and more surface area than the older core, so the base has more work to do.
We aim to have driveways finished and cured well before the first freeze, which here means booking earlier than most people expect.
We handle driveway paving across Barrie — including the Lakeshore, Allandale, Painswick, Ardagh, and Holly, and the streets and properties around Kempenfelt Bay, the Barrie waterfront, and Centennial Beach.
