Depending on the size of the driveway and the materials used, the time it takes to pave can vary. Most driveways are paved using asphalt or concrete as these materials are strong and durable. In New Zealand, for a standard-size driveway of approximately 100m2, it can take about five days to prep and install a driveway. It can take up to two weeks for larger driveways, not including the curing period.
