Asphalt Paving Cost in Virginia — 2025 Pricing Guide
Honest 2025 pricing information for asphalt paving, sealcoating, repair, and all paving services in Richmond VA and all of Central Virginia
Asphalt Paving Cost Guide — Richmond VA & Central Virginia
Understanding what asphalt paving costs in Virginia helps you evaluate quotes and avoid being overcharged. J. Worden & Sons believes in complete pricing transparency — written, itemized estimates after every in-person site visit. This guide reflects our 2025 pricing for the Richmond VA and Central Virginia market. Actual costs vary based on project size, site conditions, excavation requirements, and current material prices.
The most important factor in getting an accurate paving price is an in-person site visit. Phone quotes miss critical site conditions — poor soil requiring deeper excavation, drainage problems needing engineering solutions, tree root intrusion, or access limitations. Our free estimate visits are thorough: we walk the site, take measurements, assess conditions, and provide a detailed written quote that covers everything with no hidden fees.

Asphalt Paving Cost Guide — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does asphalt driveway paving cost in Virginia in 2025?
$3–$7 per sq ft installed. A 2-car driveway (600 sq ft) costs $1,800–$4,200. A 3-car driveway (900 sq ft) runs $2,700–$6,300. Prices vary with excavation depth, soil conditions, and site access.
What factors affect paving cost in Virginia?
Project size (larger = lower per-sq-ft), excavation depth, existing material removal, drainage requirements, site access for equipment, and current asphalt material prices.
How much does sealcoating cost in Richmond VA?
$0.15–$0.25 per sq ft. A 600 sq ft driveway costs $90–$150. A 2,000 sq ft parking lot runs $300–$500. Crack filling adds $2–$4 per linear foot.
How much does parking lot paving cost for a commercial property?
$2–$5 per sq ft for new construction, $1.50–$3.50 for resurfacing. A 50-space lot (~15,000 sq ft) runs $30,000–$75,000 for new build. ADA, drainage, and striping are additional.
Why are some paving quotes so much lower?
Low-ball quotes almost always involve shortcuts: inadequate base depth, thin asphalt, skipping edge work, or inferior materials. The base preparation is where you get cheated most — it's underground and invisible. Always ask for excavation depth and base specification in writing.
