Professional asphalt paving, repair, and sealcoating across Lincoln and Lancaster County.

Your Local Asphalt Paving Company in Lincoln

Lincoln is Nebraska's state capital and one of the largest cities in our service area.

We work across Lincoln, from the Haymarket District west of downtown to the established Bethany and Havelock neighborhoods in the northeast, the University Place area near UNL's East Campus, and the newer growth in South Lincoln and the southeast. Each part of the city has its own asphalt character — the older neighborhoods need driveway replacements and overlays, while the newer subdivisions are mostly in the sealcoat-and-maintain phase.

Commercial work in Lincoln runs the full range: retail parking lots near 27th and Pine Lake, industrial yards in the northeast near the airport, university-adjacent apartment complex drives around UNL and Nebraska Wesleyan, and corporate park lots out in the southwest. We've done all of it.

Lancaster County's growth pattern — with new residential development pushing south and east of the historic city center — keeps Lincoln on our regular rotation. We treat every Lincoln driveway like a long-term investment, because that's exactly what it is for the homeowner who paid for it.

Why Lincoln Trusts Us

The Most Trusted Asphalt Contractor Serving Lincoln

Property owners in Lincoln and across Lancaster County keep coming back because we show up on time, do the work right, and stand behind it.

Local Expertise

Asphalt Built for Nebraska Weather

Nebraska's climate is rough on asphalt — wide temperature swings, summer hailstorms, harsh winter winds, and the freeze-thaw cycle every contractor in Lancaster County has to plan around. We've spent 25+ years figuring out what kind of base prep, mix design, and drainage strategy keeps asphalt intact through Nebraska seasons. The shortcuts other contractors take show up two or three winters later in cracking, rutting, or full base failure. We don't take them.

What We Do

Asphalt Services We Provide in Lincoln

From single-driveway repairs to multi-acre commercial lots, here’s what Lincoln property owners hire us for most.

Driveway Paving in Lincoln

We pave new asphalt driveways and replace failing ones for Lincoln homeowners. From standard residential drives to long rural and acreage drives, we handle excavation, grading, base prep, and finish paving — all with the owner on site to keep quality consistent.

Parking Lots & Commercial Asphalt in Lincoln

Lincoln business owners come to us for new commercial lots, full tear-outs and rebuilds, resurfacing, and routine maintenance. We work with retail, industrial, multi-family, and government clients across Lancaster County.

Sealcoating & Maintenance in Lincoln

Sealcoating every 2–3 years is the single highest-return investment Lincoln property owners can make in their asphalt. We sealcoat residential driveways, commercial lots, and private roads using commercial-grade product applied to spec.

Asphalt Repair & Crack Filling in Lincoln

Cracks that go untreated turn into potholes, then full base failures. We crack-seal, patch, overlay, and repair asphalt across Lincoln — saving property owners thousands compared to the cost of full replacement.

Why Local Matters

Why Lincoln Property Owners Hire a Local Asphalt Contractor

There’s a difference between an asphalt contractor and a Lincoln asphalt contractor. The crews that travel in from out of state don’t know which soils heave, which streets flood, which subdivisions had their base done right and which ones didn’t. We’ve been doing this work in Lincoln and Lancaster County for over 25 years. We know the area, we know the property owners, and we stand behind every job long after the crew has gone home.

FAQ

Common Asphalt Questions in Lincoln

The questions we hear most from Lincoln homeowners and business owners. Don’t see yours? Give us a call.

How long does an asphalt driveway last in Lincoln, NE?
With proper installation and routine sealcoating every 2–3 years, an asphalt driveway typically lasts 20–25 years or longer. The biggest variable is how well the base was prepared during installation — that's where shortcuts usually catch up.
How much does asphalt paving cost?
Pricing varies based on square footage, access, prep work, and whether the existing surface needs to be removed. Asphalt is generally more affordable than concrete for driveways and parking lots, and asphalt millings cost less than hot-mix for properties that don't need a full asphalt finish. Every estimate is free and written.
When is the best time of year to pave?
Spring through fall — typically late March through early November depending on temperatures. Asphalt needs ambient temperatures above 50°F to cure properly, which the area generally hits from mid-spring through early fall.
Do you handle drainage and grading?
Yes. We grade every surface with proper slope and water flow in mind. Poor drainage is the #1 cause of premature asphalt failure in our region — and the most common shortcut that out-of-area contractors take.
Is the owner really on every job?
Yes — every single one. We're a small, family-owned company, and the owner is on site for every project from start to finish. That's how we've made it 25+ years with no bad reviews.
