Frequently Asked Questions

Asphalt or gravel for a long lane?▾

It depends on traffic and budget. Well-graded, maintained gravel costs less overall than asphalt on an insufficient base.

How is drainage handled on a long driveway?▾

With a profile that sheds water along the entire length, with ditches or culverts where needed. Standing water always ends up destroying the surface.

What should the quote include?▾

Excavation, base and compaction, asphalt or gravel thickness, drainage profile and disposal of excavated material.

When should the work happen?▾

Late spring to early fall, when temperatures allow proper compaction.

How do I verify a contractor is licensed?▾

Ask for the RBQ licence number and search the Régie du bâtiment du Québec public registry.

Paving in Notre-Dame-du-Bon-Conseil: what to know

In Centre-du-Québec, many properties have long driveways and farm lanes, which changes the approach compared with a suburban driveway.

Long driveways

Over a long run, drainage becomes central: water must be able to leave the lane along its whole length, otherwise it pools at low points and frost does the rest. The lane profile matters as much as asphalt thickness.

Asphalt or gravel

For a long, lightly used lane, well-maintained gravel often costs less than poorly based asphalt. A serious contractor explains the ten-year cost rather than the starting price alone.

The base

Adequate excavation, stone compacted in lifts, lateral drainage. That is what sets the lifespan.

Licence

The contractor must hold a Régie du bâtiment du Québec licence, liability insurance and a CNESST clearance.
