Asphalt paving in Pickering
AMPAC Paving & Concrete has been paving driveways, parking lots and private roads in Pickering since 1998. We are 40–50 minutes away, so we can get out to measure quickly and our crews start early.
Paving conditions in Pickering
Pickering ranges from lakeshore sand to northern clay, so we probe the base on every quote rather than assume from the postal code. We probe the base before quoting, so you are not paying for asphalt laid over a problem that will come straight back.
North Pickering and the rural roads above Taunton have long private driveways where drainage and culvert condition decide everything — a blocked culvert will destroy a new driveway in one spring. Closer to the lake, we deal with settled bases and older subdivision asphalt reaching replacement age.

Paving questions from Pickering owners
How much does a driveway cost in Pickering?
We do not quote Pickering driveways over the phone, because the price is set by things you cannot see in a photo — base condition, how much material has to be trucked off, access, and the mat thickness the use requires. The site visit is free, takes about twenty minutes, and produces an itemized written quote within 48 hours.
Do I need a permit to pave my driveway in Pickering?
For work entirely on your own property, usually not. Anything touching the municipal boulevard, a curb cut, or a widening that extends toward the road generally does. In Pickering that goes through City of Pickering for entrance permits; rural culverts may involve the Region, and we handle the application — the fee appears as a line item on your quote.
How soon can you start in Pickering?
We are 40–50 minutes from our Richmond Hill yard, so site visits in Pickering are usually booked within a week. Paving season runs April to late November; the last few weeks fill up first, so an early call gets you a better slot.
