Paving a driveway takes a little bit more know-how than shoveling asphalt on a strip beside your home. If you don't have a clear idea what you need from base to sealer, an unethical contractor could talk you into unnecessary and expensive work or inferior materials. Whether you're preparing for a new driveway, repaving the old one or a commercial parking lot, give Dave Trudel a call at 902.499.7017.

If you had a driveway done by DCT and are looking for the "Do's and Don'ts", you can download it here. We have been around for more than 25 years so you can feel confident we'll be around tomorrow.
You won't have to worry about your new driveway for a very long time because we stand behind our work. We do all the work ourselves (no sub-contractors are ever used) so you can rest assured it is done right. Get at least 2 estimates and compare what is included so you can compare apples to apples.

DCT just finished paving my driveway mid Sept 2021. Awesome job! They were professional at the quoting stage, owner stopped by after the driveway was prepped to make sure we were happy, paving crew were professional and owner followed up with me after paving to be sure I was happy. They responded very quickly to every question I sent them via text. It was a good price as well. I would use them again if I needed paving in the future and highly recommend them. I loved their paving info sheet on their website too.

Can’t say enough great things about them. Very professional. The crew came to my home, removed the old asphalt which was over 30 years old. The base had completely washed away and absorbed in the ground. I had a water issue that DCT paving took care of by re-grading/sloping the driveway to better direct the water. They added a new base as indicated in their quote. They explained to me the process and why they will let my driveway sit for a month to better settle. Dave came by to inspect the driveway and had his crew come out to fill in low spots on the base as it settled. DCT communicated with

Choosing a company to strip our old driveway and lay new asphalt wasn't easy. We sought five quotes, and all five came back within $100 of each other. DCT rose above the rest with their friendly and informative approach - from our initial quote with Garth to follow-up conversations with Dave. In dealing with them we never regretted our decision to invest in a new driveway and couldn't be happier with the final result.

Ok, I was worried, frankly, about being taken advantage of because I know nothing about paving; however, DCT was wonderful to deal with and even beat a quote given to me by one of their competitors. They kept me well informed regarding when they were coming and let me know in advance the day it was happening (which can be difficult given that they… are dealing with many people's schedules as well as weather). Craig explained everything very well (and even answered questions I know were dumb without laughing) and I trusted that he would get the job done and it would look great--and it did
