Services

Driveway Repaving

Our driveway repaving service removes damaged asphalt sections, levels uneven areas with stone base, and applies fresh asphalt layers. This extends driveway lifespan while improving functionality and curb appeal. Ideal for residential properties with moderate to severe surface damage.

Excavation Services

Complete driveway excavation involves removing existing damaged surfaces, re-grading the area, and installing new stone base and asphalt layers. This solution addresses structural issues while ensuring proper drainage and long-term stability for both residential and commercial properties.

Drainage Systems

We install drainage channels that redirect rainwater away from driveways and parking lots. This prevents water accumulation, reduces erosion risks, and protects asphalt integrity. Systems are designed to integrate seamlessly with existing or new paving projects for optimal performance.

Belgian Block Edging

Our Belgian block curbing combines aesthetic appeal with functional edge protection. The installation process involves trench excavation, block placement, and concrete reinforcement to create durable borders that enhance driveway longevity and visual appeal.

Concrete Recycling

We offer on-site concrete and asphalt crushing services that convert demolition debris into reusable construction materials. This environmentally friendly solution reduces disposal costs while providing quality fill material for new paving projects and construction applications.

I originally gave this company a D because I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, which you can see by my the first half of my review, but that has since changed at the end of this review.
part 1..... .I am a little conflicted on how to write this review and hope I can edit it if David ever resurfaces.
David was great and patient the entire way through the process. Answered all my questions, concerns, worked around other projects, etc.
i never had a reason to think he isnt the right guy for the job, heck, he may still be if I ever learn the backstory. The issue is, I cant get in

Last summer David paved my driveway, which was beyond repair. He came for multiple visits and fielded my many questions before the job was completed. This has been the first year we have not had water in our basement due to how he graded our driveway. Thank you!

I called American Paving for an estimate on our driveway and Dave got back to us the same business day. He came by that night and provided us a estimate. We scheduled the work to be done the following week and they showed precisely at the appointment time. Tom (Dave's son in law) and another person explained what they would be doing and answered all our questions. The job took approximately 2 1/2 hours and they were extremely neat with no mess on the edges or corners. We are very satisfied with the work provided and I would highly recommend American Paving for any paving or seal coat jobs you
