Only on Taskly
One post, the whole situation handled
Several jobs bought as one outcome — one Tasker, one price to agree, no coordinating three trades yourself.
Driveway and drainage together
The driveway rebuilt with the grade falling away from the garage and the downspouts moved off the apron — the two things that decide whether it survives ten winters or three.
Post this taskThe whole front
Driveway, walkway and front steps done as one, so the levels meet properly and the transitions are not three different heights.
Post this taskOld one out, new one in
The existing surface broken up and hauled away, the base excavated to depth and rebuilt, and the new surface laid — with the disposal priced up front rather than added later.
Post this taskBefore the winter
Cracks sealed, settled pavers lifted and relaid, and joints re-sanded so meltwater has nowhere to sit and freeze under the surface.

Local knowledge
Priced for how the GTA actually lives
Four things that change a paving quote here, and nowhere else.
Freeze-thaw
The base is the driveway
Toronto ground freezes and thaws repeatedly all winter, and each cycle lifts whatever sits on it. Enough compacted granular underneath is the difference between a surface that lasts and one that cracks in three years — and it is invisible on day one.
Downspouts
Water on the apron is ice by December
A downspout discharging onto the driveway is the most commonly ignored line in a paving quote. In this climate it is a sheet of ice within weeks and a heaved slab by spring.
Removal
The old driveway is a weight-based bill
Breaking up and disposing of old asphalt, concrete or an interlock bed carries real tipping fees and is usually a separate line. So is excavation depth, which changes if the existing base is clay or contaminated fill.
May to October
A short season the whole region wants
Asphalt needs warm ground to compact, concrete needs curing temperatures, and every base needs unfrozen ground. Asking in autumn for next year gets better prices and a schedule that means something.
What a new driveway usually covers
- Excavation to the depth the surface and soil require
- Compacted granular base, laid and compacted in lifts
- The surface — asphalt, pavers or poured concrete
- Edge restraint on interlock, or proper edging on asphalt
- Grading so water runs away from the garage and the house
Removing and disposing of the old driveway, and any drainage work, are commonly separate lines.
Try nowWhat moves the price
- Area, and how much of it a machine can reach
- Surface: asphalt, interlock or poured concrete
- Excavation depth, and what the existing base turns out to be
- Removal and disposal of the old surface, priced by weight
- Slope, and whether the grade has to be re-established
- Edge detail, curbing and any steps or walkway tied into it
- Season and how far ahead you are booking
Worth asking before you agree
- How deep are you excavating, and how much granular is going back?
- Is the base compacted in lifts, or all at once?
- Where will water go once this is finished?
- Is removal and disposal of the old surface in this number?
- For interlock: what is the edge restraint?
- For concrete: where are the control joints, and how are they cut?

Questions
Frequently asked
GTA-specific answers to what people actually search for.
How much does a driveway cost in Toronto?
No band on this page, deliberately. Our engine has rate rows for cleaning, moving, junk removal, lawn care, plumbing and electrical work, and paving is not one of them, so rather than type a range nobody can derive we show none. Post the driveway and compare the fixed-price offers you actually receive.
Asphalt, interlock or concrete?
Asphalt is cheapest and flexes with the freeze-thaw rather than cracking. Interlock costs more, handles movement well because it is designed to move, and individual settled areas can be lifted and relaid. Concrete is the most rigid and the least forgiving in this climate — it will crack, so the question is whether the control joints decide where.
Why did my driveway crack after two winters?
Almost always the base rather than the surface. Toronto ground freezes and thaws repeatedly, and a thin or poorly compacted granular layer moves unevenly under whatever is on top. Water is the other half — if it sits on or under the surface it freezes and expands. Both are decided before the surface goes down.
Do I need to remove the old driveway?
Usually yes if the base is the problem, which it often is. Paving over a failing base buys a smooth surface and the same failure a bit later. Removal carries real weight-based disposal fees and is normally a separate line, so confirm whether it is inside the quote before comparing two numbers.
When can paving be done?
Roughly May to October in the GTA. Asphalt needs warm ground to compact properly, concrete needs temperatures that allow it to cure, and every surface needs an unfrozen base. It is a short season the whole region competes for — asking in the autumn for the following year usually gets a better price and a real date.
