Navarre sits in the river valley bottomland east of Canton, where modest homes on damp clay ground face the grinding reality of Ohio freeze-thaw cycles and the heavy runoff that comes with 40 inches of annual rain. Driveways here settle, crack, and shed water toward foundations and garages, and gravel lanes turn to mud in spring. Canton Asphalt Paving has served Navarre and the surrounding Stark County communities since 2011, with the local knowledge and insured crews to handle driveway repair, resurfacing, and complete replacement on the tight lots and soft subgrades that define this area.
When your driveway has failed or your gravel lane needs grading and stabilization, you need a contractor who understands Navarre's terrain, knows the local permitting rules, and shows up with equipment that fits your property. We are based in Canton, we work year-round in this climate, and we speak the language of the drainage and base problems that plague homes in 44662.
Asphalt Paving in Navarre (44662)
Navarre's river-bottom location brings advantages and challenges. The water table is high, the soil is heavy glacial clay, and the ground moves with the seasons. Driveways here often fail first at the downhill edge, where settlement and water pressure heave the pavement or crack it along its length. Garages and foundations sit close to grade, so pitch and drainage matter intensely. Winter brings dozens of freeze-thaw cycles that pop potholes and heave aprons, and road salt and plow blades chew at edges from November through March. A driveway that sheds water properly and sits on a solid base can last 15 to 20 years. One that doesn't will fail in half that time, and patches alone won't save it.
Our crews understand the subgrade conditions in Navarre and the surrounding townships. We size base material to handle the wet season, we build proper pitch to move water away from your structure, and we use thickness and tonnage specs that hold up under the local climate. We are fully insured for general liability and workers' compensation, and we provide written estimates with tonnage and thickness on every job.

How a Job Works in Navarre
We start with a free on-site assessment. We measure your driveway or lot, look at the base, check the pitch and drainage, and talk honestly about whether you need a patch, a resurfacing, or a full replacement. We explain what you are paying for and why. Many driveways in Navarre can be resurfaced rather than replaced, which saves money and works well if the base is sound. If the base has failed, we will tell you that too.
Once you approve the estimate, we schedule the work during the paving season, roughly April through November. Our crews arrive with a paver and a roller, and we handle the job in one or two days depending on size. If you have a tight lot or limited access, we work within those constraints. If your property sits in an HOA, we coordinate with the association. We clean up thoroughly when we finish and walk through the completed work with you.
New asphalt must cure for six to twelve months before any seal coat is applied. During that time, the binder continues to harden and the surface becomes tougher. We advise against sealing during the cure period, and we give you honest guidance on maintenance as your new surface ages.
Driveway paving in Navarre typically starts at $6 per square foot for new installation, and resurfacing runs from $4 per square foot, depending on the size of the job, the condition of the base, and the thickness of material we install. A typical residential driveway of 500 to 700 square feet might run $3,000 to $5,000 for a full replacement, or $2,000 to $3,000 for a resurfacing if the base is solid. Pothole and patch repairs start at $450. Gravel driveway installation and grading, common in Navarre for longer rural lanes, starts at $950. The best way to know what your job will cost is to call us at (330) 919-5837 for a free written estimate.
