The Albany Advantage

Albany homeowners face unique driveway challenges thanks to:

  • Freeze-thaw cycles that expand and contract asphalt

  • Clay-heavy soil that shifts under heavy weight

  • Urban layouts that limit space for drainage


Egan Paving’s Albany Expertise:

  • Thicker asphalt designed for cold climates

  • Proper grading for long-term stability

  • A track record of successful Albany driveways, from Pine Hills to Loudonville


Colonie & Guilderland — Spacious Driveways, Bigger Projects

Suburban neighborhoods in Colonie and Guilderland often feature longer, wider driveways. While these add convenience and curb appeal, they also require more planning and stronger construction methods.


Why Local Experience Matters:

  • Larger driveways need commercial-grade equipment

  • Curved or multi-tier layouts require custom grading and compaction

  • Without the right prep, these bigger projects can sink or crack prematurely


At Egan Paving, we’ve completed countless Colonie and Guilderland residential projects, tailoring solutions to fit both small cul-de-sac homes and large estate properties.


Schenectady & Rotterdam — Long-Standing Trust

In Schenectady and Rotterdam, we’ve built more than just driveways — we’ve built relationships. Homeowners here choose us again and again because they’ve seen the difference:

  • Stronger driveways that hold up year after year

  • Custom drainage systems to handle uneven terrain

  • Projects that balance function with neighborhood aesthetics

It’s why Egan Paving consistently ranks at the top for Schenectady driveway paving searches.


Our Proven Process for Residential Driveways

No matter where you live in the Capital Region, our process ensures a driveway built to last:

  1. Inspection & Planning — Assessing soil, slope, and water flow.

  4. Finishing & Edging — Crisp lines and proper thickness for durability.
