You get asphalt that handles Edwards Hill’s weather changes without cracking or failing early. Your driveway stays smooth and functional for 20-30 years when we install it right the first time.
Most property owners discover their investment pays off within the first few winters. No more worrying about potholes damaging your vehicles or visitors struggling with uneven surfaces.

Morgan Construction has served Edwards Hill and surrounding areas for over 25 years under the same ownership. You work directly with the owner from your first call through project completion.
We handle paving, asphalt work, excavation, and foundations year-round. Winter months shift our focus to foundation work and land clearing, so you get experienced crews regardless of season.
Edwards Hill property owners choose us because we live and work in this community. We understand local soil conditions, drainage challenges, and how our weather affects asphalt performance over time.
First, we assess your property and discuss exactly what you need. Site evaluation covers drainage, soil conditions, and any prep work required before paving begins.
Next comes excavation and base preparation. Proper foundation work determines how long your asphalt lasts, so we don’t cut corners on this step. Most Edwards Hill properties need 6-8 inches of compacted stone base.
Finally, we install the asphalt using proper thickness for your specific use. Driveways get different treatment than parking lots. Everything gets rolled and finished to ensure proper compaction and smooth surface that drains correctly.
