Project Background
Located in a beautifully preserved historic building, HUSH Salon and Spa offers high-end wellness and beauty services in the heart of Brewer. While the interior provided a relaxing, professional environment, the exterior parking area was in need of an upgrade to better reflect the quality of the business.
That’s where Discount Asphalt & Paving came in — with the goal of delivering a clean, durable, and visually appealing driveway and parking surface that matched the charm of the building and met the needs of both customers and staff.
Challenges
-
Limited space: Tight entryway and curved path required precision paving.
-
Historic building: The new asphalt needed to complement the architecture and landscaping without damaging existing structures.
-
Business visibility: The driveway also served as the main customer entry point, so curb appeal was critical.
-
Functional layout: The surface needed to be easy to maintain and clearly direct traffic, while maintaining an upscale appearance.
Our Approach
-
Detailed Site Prep
Our team began by carefully clearing and grading the existing driveway and parking area. Proper slope and drainage were a top priority to ensure long-term performance — especially through Brewer’s freeze-thaw seasons. -
Custom Asphalt Installation
Using our Leeboy 8500D paver and CC1200 VI compactor, we laid down fresh hot mix asphalt across the driveway and lot. Special attention was given to the transition points near the front steps and side parking entrance. -
Clean Finish & Edging
We ensured the edges of the new pavement were clean, smooth, and consistent with the surrounding lawn and hardscape. The final finish elevated the entire entry experience for HUSH clients. -
Minimal Disruption
Our crew worked quickly and efficiently to complete the job with minimal impact to HUSH’s business hours — a key part of the customer experience.
The Results
The transformation was immediate. What was once a worn and patchy entrance is now a sleek, welcoming surface that reflects the brand’s quality and attention to detail. Customers now enjoy:
-
✔️ Easy, smooth access from the street
-
✔️ Clean, modern curb appeal
-
✔️ A safer surface for walking and parking
-
✔️ Durable pavement that requires minimal upkeep
