Hear From Our Clients
Your driveway stops being a problem. No more worrying about cracks spreading every winter or water pooling after storms. No more explaining to visitors why they need to park on the street.
You get a smooth, properly graded surface that handles Cedar Bluffs weather without falling apart in two years. Your property value goes up. Your neighbors notice. And you stop thinking about your driveway because it just works.
The difference is in the foundation work and materials we use. Most contractors skip the proper base preparation to save time and money. We don’t, because we know you’ll be calling someone else to fix it later if we do.
We’ve been handling paving, excavation, and foundation work in Cedar Bluffs and the surrounding region since the late 1990s. We’re the company locals call when they need it done right the first time.
You work directly with the owner on every project. No sales reps, no middlemen, no surprises. We show up when we say we will, do exactly what we quoted, and clean up when we’re done.
Cedar Bluffs winters are tough on pavement. We’ve learned what works here and what doesn’t through decades of projects. That experience shows in how long our work lasts compared to contractors who treat every job the same regardless of local conditions.
We start with a site visit to assess your current surface and drainage situation. You get a detailed written estimate with no hidden costs or surprise charges later.
Once you approve the work, we schedule around weather conditions and your needs. We handle all the prep work including proper excavation and base installation. Most contractors rush this part, but it’s what determines whether your pavement lasts 5 years or 25 years.
The paving itself happens fast once the foundation is right. We use quality asphalt mixed for local weather conditions and apply it with proper equipment, not hand tools. After completion, you get documentation of the work and direct contact information for any future needs.

Our services cover everything from residential driveways to commercial parking lots. We handle new installations, complete replacements, and repairs that actually fix the underlying problem instead of just covering it up.
Cedar Bluffs properties face specific challenges with freeze-thaw cycles and drainage issues common to the region. We factor these into every project design, ensuring proper slope and base preparation that prevent the water damage and frost heaving that destroy most pavements here.
You also get emergency response capability for urgent repairs. When a water main break or storm damage affects your pavement, we can respond quickly to prevent further property damage. This level of service comes from being locally owned and operated, not a franchise or out-of-town crew.
Properly installed asphalt paving in Cedar Bluffs typically lasts 20-30 years with basic maintenance. The key factors are foundation preparation and using the right asphalt mix for local conditions.
Cedar Bluffs experiences significant freeze-thaw cycles that can destroy poorly installed pavement in just a few years. We use a thicker base layer and proper drainage design to prevent water from getting under the asphalt where it can freeze and cause cracking. The asphalt mix we use is formulated to handle temperature swings without becoming brittle in winter or soft in summer heat.
Regular sealcoating every 3-5 years extends the life even further by preventing water penetration and UV damage. Most of our installations from the early 2000s are still in excellent condition because we don’t cut corners on the foundation work that other contractors skip.
The main difference is foundation preparation and material quality. Cheaper contractors often skip proper excavation and base installation to reduce costs and time on site.
We excavate to the proper depth and install a compacted gravel base that prevents settling and water damage. This takes more time upfront but prevents the cracking and settling that require expensive repairs later. Many contractors just lay asphalt over existing surfaces or use minimal base preparation.
We also use quality asphalt from local suppliers rather than whatever’s cheapest or leftover from other jobs. You get a written warranty and direct access to the owner for any issues. Cheaper contractors often disappear when problems arise or send different crews who don’t know the original installation details.
Yes, we handle commercial paving projects from small business parking areas to larger commercial lots. Commercial work requires different planning and materials than residential driveways.
Commercial surfaces need to handle heavier loads and more traffic, so we use thicker asphalt and stronger base preparation. We also coordinate with your business schedule to minimize disruption to your operations. Most commercial projects can be phased to keep part of your parking available during construction.
We handle all aspects including drainage design, ADA compliance, line striping, and ongoing maintenance programs. You get the same owner-direct communication and quality standards whether it’s a 10-space lot or a major commercial facility.
Driveway paving costs in Cedar Bluffs typically range from $4-8 per square foot for quality asphalt installation, depending on site conditions and preparation needed.
The total cost depends on factors like current surface condition, drainage requirements, and access for equipment. A typical two-car driveway (600 square feet) ranges from $2,400-4,800 including proper preparation and materials. This includes removal of old pavement if needed, base preparation, and new asphalt installation.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No hidden charges for disposal, permits, or “unexpected” site conditions. The estimate we give is the price you pay unless you request changes to the scope of work.
Asphalt paving works best in temperatures above 50°F, so we typically schedule paving projects from late spring through fall. However, we can handle emergency repairs and some installations during milder winter days.
Cold weather affects how asphalt cures and compacts, which can impact long-term durability. We monitor weather conditions carefully and won’t install new pavement when temperatures are too low for proper installation. This protects your investment and ensures the work meets our quality standards.
During winter months, we focus on excavation, foundation work, and emergency repairs using cold-patch materials when needed. We also use this time for planning and scheduling spring projects, so you can get on the schedule early for optimal installation timing.
Yes, we provide ongoing maintenance services including sealcoating, crack sealing, and repairs. Regular maintenance is essential for maximizing your pavement investment in Cedar Bluffs conditions.
Sealcoating should be done every 3-5 years to protect against water penetration, UV damage, and chemical spills. We track when your pavement was installed and contact you when maintenance is due. This proactive approach prevents small issues from becoming expensive repairs.
We also handle repairs from settling, tree root damage, or other issues that can develop over time. Since we installed the original pavement, we know exactly how it was built and what materials were used, ensuring repairs integrate properly with the existing surface.
