Why Choose Asphalt?
Asphalt is the preferred material for driveways, parking lots, and roadways due to its exceptional strength, low maintenance requirements, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Our paving process begins with a thorough evaluation of the existing or new base stone to ensure it is strong, properly compacted, and graded correctly. Utilizing state-of-the-art asphalt pavers and vibratory rollers, our highly trained operators ensure a seamless installation.

Excavation & Grading
A building cannot stand the test of time without a strong, sturdy foundation. A parking lot or roadway is no different. Unsuitable soil must first be removed or modified so as not to undermine the structural integrity of the subbase. The placement of crushed aggregate in pre-determined lifts will allow the proper compaction of the stone. The advantage of using crushed stone is that the material will in essence “lock together”. A precisely fine-graded and compacted stone base assures the asphalt layer will drain as designed and provide a durable wearing surface.
Grading is an essential component of the excavation process. We ensure that the surface is sloped appropriately to facilitate water runoff, preventing pooling and reducing the risk of erosion. Our skilled operators utilize advanced grading equipment to achieve precise elevations, which is critical for:
- Effective Drainage: Proper grading directs rainwater away from the asphalt surface, protecting the subbase from saturation and damage.
- Surface Integrity: A well-graded base reduces the likelihood of surface cracking and buckling by minimizing moisture intrusion and freeze-thaw cycles.
Storm Water Management Services
Rain, snow, ice, freeze-thaw cycles can wreak havoc on your parking lot. These conditions can create potholes, water backups, collapsed catch basins, and damaged pavement, which can all be the result of water undermining your asphalt pavement. Managing water properly on your parking lot is the most important ingredient for preserving your lot.
Storm Water Drainage System
This process reduces pavement damage by collecting water under your pavement and directing it to a catch basin, or safely out of the pavement structure, rather than it collecting and saturating the soils beneath the pavement.
Catch Basin Repair
This will keep water from getting into the pavement section and creating soft, water-saturated soils that can destroy the pavement. We're experienced with PVC, corrugated plastic and concrete piping and can reconstruct or remove & replace your catch basin.
Emergency Asphalt Breaks
Emergency Breaks can be a nightmare. We're available whenever you need us to handle them and get everything back to a clean, paved surface.
