Our Asphalt Paving Services
We offer a full range of paving services for both residential and commercial clients. No matter the size or scope of your project, we’re equipped to handle it with professionalism and care.
- New Asphalt Installation: Starting fresh? We provide complete site preparation and installation for new asphalt surfaces, including driveways, roads, and parking lots. We begin with grading and dirt work to create a stable foundation, then follow up with high-quality hot mix asphalt to deliver a clean, durable finish. This is ideal for new home construction, commercial developments, rural roads, and anywhere you need a fresh, functional surface built from the ground up.
- Asphalt Paving: Whether you’re in Bartlett, Marion, or Oxford, our asphalt paving services are built for the wear and tear of Mid-South traffic and climate. We pave driveways, access roads, parking lots, and private lanes with clean lines, proper drainage, and long-term performance in mind. We also ensure ADA compliance and safe slope grading when working on commercial or multi-use spaces.
- Asphalt Overlay: If your current surface has seen better days but isn’t completely beyond repair, an asphalt overlay may be the perfect fix. We’ll assess the structural condition of the existing pavement and apply a new top layer that restores function and appearance — all without the need for full replacement. Our asphalt overlay and chip paving services in Memphis, TN, and the surrounding Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi area, are a great way to extend the life of your pavement while saving time and cost.
- Chip Paving (Chip & Seal): For more rural roads or budget-conscious projects, chip paving — also called chip and seal — is a smart, cost-effective alternative to traditional asphalt. It provides a durable, textured surface that’s especially well-suited for light-traffic areas like driveways and private roads. We apply a hot asphalt binder followed by a layer of stone aggregate, rolled into place for a firm grip and reliable performance.
- Grading and Dirt Work: Before any paving begins, the ground beneath has to be right. Our team handles all aspects of grading and base prep to ensure proper drainage, slope control, and long-term durability. This service is especially critical for preventing water damage and future cracking.

Why Asphalt Is Ideal for the Mid-South
Living and working in the Memphis region — including areas like Southaven, West Memphis, Collierville, Olive Branch, and Hernando — means dealing with a wide range of weather. Our summers are hot, humid, and punishing on poorly laid pavement. Sudden rainstorms and cold winter mornings can wreak havoc on asphalt that wasn’t built with care.
That’s why it’s so important to work with new asphalt installation contractors in Memphis, TN, and the surrounding Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi area who know the land and climate. We understand how to grade and compact a solid base, lay the right thickness, and use proven materials that will last — season after season.
