North Canton's post-war neighborhoods line the Akron-Canton Airport corridor with single-pitched asphalt driveways that have carried traffic for fifty years and now need resurfacing or replacement. The tidy brick ranches, capes, and split-levels on your quiet streets sit on rolling glacial terrain with dense clay soil and steep grades, a combination that puts real stress on blacktop.
When your driveway starts to crack, settle, or shed pieces into the gutter, or when water pools near your garage foundation, that is freeze-thaw damage at work. Akron Asphalt Paving has served North Canton (44720) and the surrounding Akron area since 2016 with honest repair and resurfacing work that keeps driveways sound for another decade, and full replacement when the base has failed.
Asphalt Paving in North Canton (44720)
The driveways in North Canton face a particular set of challenges. Your clay-heavy subgrade holds water instead of shedding it. Winter freeze-thaw cycles crack the surface, and snowplow salt accelerates that breakdown. Many driveways slope toward the house or garage, which means water can pool at the foundation if the pitch fails or settles. The single-pitched layout, common to post-war construction, also means tight access for paving equipment on side lots and narrow aprons between homes.
We understand these conditions because we have worked in North Canton and across Summit County for years. We measure your driveway on site, assess whether repair or resurfacing will hold or whether the base has failed and replacement is the honest call, and we price the work fairly. Our team is fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.

How a Job Works in North Canton
You call us at (234) 437-3372 or contact us online. We schedule a free on-site visit to look at your driveway or parking lot, measure the affected area, and talk through what you have seen. We explain what is happening, why, and what repair or replacement will cost. We provide a written estimate with square footage and, for larger jobs, tonnage specifications so you know exactly what you are getting.
Once you approve the estimate, we schedule the work around your schedule and the weather. Our crew handles any necessary utility locates (required by law before any excavation), coordinates with your HOA if needed, and manages any permits required by North Canton. We mill or remove the old asphalt, prepare and grade the base, and lay new asphalt to proper thickness. For tight residential lots, we work carefully to protect your landscaping and your neighbors' property.
When the job is done, we clean up debris and sweep the site. You get a walkthrough so you can see the finished work. We stand behind our workmanship.
Driveway paving in North Canton typically runs from $6 per square foot for new installation, depending on base condition and site access. Resurfacing an existing driveway costs from $4 per square foot. Repair work for potholes and patching starts at $450. A full driveway replacement, where the base has failed, runs from $7 per square foot. The real cost drivers are the size of the area, the condition of the base, how much grading and drainage work is needed, and whether your lot allows easy access for the paver and roller. A steep driveway or one hemmed in by structures costs more to work on than a wide, flat lot. We provide a free written estimate on site so you know the actual cost before any work begins. Call (234) 437-3372 to schedule your assessment.
