Why Choose Asphalt Overlays for Your Property?
Ideal for Various Applications
Whether you’re dealing with minor asphalt distress or more severe cracks and holes, an asphalt overlay is perfect for residential asphalt paving, commercial asphalt paving services, and municipal paving projects. It’s suitable for driveways, parking lots, bus lanes, and functional parking lots, ensuring a seamless, durable, and safe surface.
Sustainable and Eco-Friendly
One of the key advantages of asphalt overlays is that they can utilize recycled asphalt materials, making it an environmentally friendly option. RCA Asphalt helps minimize the need for virgin aggregates, which reduces the environmental impact of the paving process.
Long-Lasting Durability
Asphalt overlays provide a protective asphalt layer that prevents water infiltration and further damage. With proper asphalt seal coating, these overlays can extend the life of your pavement for many years, even under heavy traffic or daily traffic conditions. The process also helps with asphalt pavement surface restoration, ensuring better resistance to weather elements.
How Much Does Asphalt Paving Cost in NY?

“I’m the President of an HOA in Bohemia, NY and a retired Union General Labor Foreman in NYC and on Long Island. Over my 40+ year career, I’ve worked with many contractors — and hands down, John McGowan & Sons is one of the best I’ve had the pleasure to work with.
They handled our complex’s street replacement project with absolute professionalism. From James, John, Eileen, and Jessica to the extraordinary group of hardworking men they employ — their professionalism, knowledge, experience, and courteous manner truly stood out.
This company will get your project done in a timely fashion and on schedule, no matter what it takes — and that’s exactly what I experienced.
If you want a great company to handle your project, no matter how small or large, you definitely want JOHN McGOWAN & SONS to do it!!!!”
HOA Road Improvement Project
“J. McGowan just completed a beautiful improvement on our small private lane on the North Shore of Long Island. The shared private road was in poor disrepair, and with McGowan’s expertise and easy lead time, the job came out gorgeous. All resident neighbors were very happy with the result.
The office staff was always responsive and considerate, and the workers on the job were polite and kept the job site neat and clean. The pricing was also very good compared to other bids we received.
I highly recommend this paving contractor.”
HOA Road Improvement Project
“John and his team did a great job replacing our old retaining wall, stairs, extending our front porch, and repaving our driveway at our home on the North Shore of Long Island.
John McGowan & Sons were recommended by a friend in the neighborhood after seeing the beautiful work they had done at their home. A job that I thought would take weeks was done in just 10 days — start to finish.
When we thought there might be an issue with an old tree being in the way, John had someone take it down the same day so his crew could keep working. When we suspected a potential problem with the water main, he had his plumber there immediately to ensure no damage would occur. And when our outdoor light stopped working, his electrician showed up within the hour to reconnect it.
They really went above and beyond to get the job done right, on time, and at the exact price quoted.
I highly recommend John McGowan & Sons to anyone looking for professional masonry work.”

The finished product is clean, polished, and exactly what we were hoping for. You can tell they take pride in doing a thorough job. We’re really happy with how it turned out and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend McGowan & Sons to anyone looking for quality driveway work.”
