Save Thousands While Getting Better Results

Your cracked, worn asphalt doesn’t need complete replacement. Most of the time, professional resurfacing gives you a surface that looks and performs like new for a fraction of the cost.

The difference is in the approach. We assess what’s actually wrong, fix the real problems, then apply a fresh layer that bonds properly and drains correctly. No shortcuts, no hoping for the best.

Asphalt Resurfacing Process Neilson

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we inspect your pavement to make sure the foundation is solid enough for resurfacing. If there are major structural problems, we’ll tell you upfront—resurfacing won’t fix a failing base, and we won’t take your money knowing it won’t work.

Once we confirm resurfacing is the right solution, we repair any potholes and significant cracks, then clean the surface thoroughly. Next comes the tack coat—a bonding agent that ensures the new asphalt layer adheres properly to the existing surface.

Then we apply the new asphalt layer using professional-grade equipment, ensuring proper thickness and smooth compaction. The final step is allowing proper cure time so you get a surface that will handle traffic and weather for years to come.

Neilson Commercial Asphalt Maintenance

Built for Florida's Toughest Conditions

Florida’s climate is brutal on asphalt. The intense UV exposure breaks down binders, frequent storms test drainage systems, and high humidity accelerates deterioration. That’s why generic resurfacing approaches often fail here within a few years.

Our resurfacing process accounts for these local challenges. We use weather-resistant materials that handle UV exposure without rapid oxidation. Our drainage solutions prevent the water infiltration that destroys pavement from underneath.

For Neilson properties, this means resurfacing that actually lasts. Whether it’s a commercial parking lot that needs to handle daily traffic or a residential driveway that should look good for years, we engineer solutions that work in Central Florida’s specific conditions.

How do I know if my asphalt needs resurfacing or complete replacement?

The key is the condition of your base layer. If your pavement is less than 20 years old, has cracks smaller than a quarter-inch wide, and the foundation feels solid when you walk on it, resurfacing is probably viable. Signs you need replacement instead include large sections that feel spongy underfoot, extensive alligator cracking, or areas where the pavement has completely failed. We provide honest assessments because resurfacing over a failing base wastes your money and creates bigger problems later. During our inspection, we’ll check for proper drainage, foundation stability, and the extent of surface damage. If resurfacing will give you 8-15 more years of reliable service, we’ll recommend it. If the problems go deeper, we’ll explain why replacement is the better investment.

How long does asphalt resurfacing last in Florida's climate?

Properly done resurfacing typically lasts 8-15 years in Florida, depending on traffic volume and maintenance. The key is using materials designed for our climate and applying them correctly. Florida’s intense UV exposure, humidity, and frequent storms accelerate asphalt aging compared to northern climates. That’s why we use weather-resistant materials and ensure proper drainage—water infiltration is the fastest way to destroy resurfaced pavement. With regular sealcoating every 2-3 years and prompt crack repair, resurfaced asphalt can reach the upper end of that lifespan range. The investment in proper resurfacing and maintenance is still far less than replacement costs.

What's the difference between resurfacing and sealcoating?

Sealcoating is a thin protective layer applied over existing asphalt, while resurfacing involves removing damaged surface material and applying a new structural layer of asphalt. Sealcoating works for pavement that’s in good condition but needs protection from UV rays and moisture. It’s essentially preventive maintenance that costs $0.15-0.30 per square foot and should be done every 2-3 years in Florida. Resurfacing is for pavement with surface damage—cracks, minor potholes, or wear—but a solid foundation. It costs $1-7 per square foot but gives you a structurally renewed surface that lasts 8-15 years. Think of sealcoating as regular maintenance and resurfacing as a major repair that extends pavement life.

Can you resurface asphalt during Florida's rainy season?

We can work during rainy season, but timing is critical. Asphalt needs dry conditions for proper application and initial curing, so we monitor weather closely and schedule accordingly. The advantage of working with local contractors is we understand Florida’s weather patterns. We know when afternoon storms typically hit and can plan work schedules to avoid rain during critical application and curing periods. If unexpected weather threatens a project, we’ll delay rather than compromise quality. Rushing asphalt work in poor conditions creates problems that cost far more to fix later. We’d rather reschedule than deliver substandard results.

How much does asphalt resurfacing cost compared to replacement?

Resurfacing typically costs $1-7 per square foot, while complete replacement runs $8-15 per square foot. For a typical driveway, that’s the difference between $1,500-4,200 for resurfacing versus $4,800-9,000 for replacement. The exact cost depends on your pavement’s condition, size, and any prep work needed. Simple overlay over sound pavement costs less than resurfacing that requires extensive crack repair and surface preparation. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Our goal is helping you make the most cost-effective decision for your specific situation, whether that’s resurfacing, replacement, or maintenance.

Do you handle both residential and commercial asphalt resurfacing?

Yes, we handle projects of all sizes, from residential driveways to large commercial parking lots. The principles are the same, but commercial projects often require different scheduling and traffic management. For residential work, we focus on minimizing disruption to your daily routine and ensuring the finished surface enhances your property’s appearance and value. Residential projects typically take 1-2 days from start to finish. Commercial resurfacing requires coordination with business operations, often working during off-hours or weekends to minimize customer impact. We also handle the striping, ADA compliance, and other requirements that commercial properties need. Every project gets the same attention to quality, regardless of size.
