Asphalt Paving
Preferred Paving delivers durable asphalt surfaces for driveways, roads, and parking lots. Our process involves precise material delivery at optimal temperatures, professional installation using self-propelled pavers, and thorough compaction for long-lasting results. Clients benefit from asphalt's flexibility in extreme weather and cost-effective maintenance options like resurfacing and sealing.
Excavating
We provide comprehensive excavation services including asphalt removal, soft grade repair, and material recycling. Our team uses specialized equipment to handle rocky surfaces, wet soil, and underwater sediment while adhering to environmental regulations. Recycled materials become reusable road base, reducing project costs and environmental impact.
Crack Seal
Our crack sealing service prevents water intrusion using hot rubberized asphalt sealer. Technicians clean cracks with high-pressure air before applying sealant that expands and contracts with temperature changes. This extends pavement life by preventing freeze-thaw damage and alligator cracking in Utah's variable climate.
Seal Coat
We apply protective seal coats using premium products like P+ and Tuff Coat. The two-coat process creates a barrier against UV damage, water penetration, and chemical exposure. Regular sealing every 3-5 years maintains asphalt aesthetics and reduces long-term maintenance costs through enhanced durability.
Striping
Our striping services include parking stall layout, directional signage, and ADA-compliant markings. We use weather-resistant chlorinated rubber paint that withstands vehicle traffic and Utah's climate. Projects include new layouts, restriping existing designs, and custom traffic flow solutions for commercial properties.

I've never seen another company do quality asphalt as well as this company. They stand by their work if there's ever an issue. I will use this company every time and that's based on my personal experience with them.

I would have PREFERRED if these guys did not work until 9:45pm on a Friday night paving the extension in our neighborhood. Eagle Mountain City ordinance states no construction noise past 9:00pm M-F. Law is the law. Talk about loud construction noise along with my house shaking for hours on end. Secondly and more frustrating is that they left a big mess in front of our house from their work. Are you freaking going to come back and clean? The city is definitely getting a call Monday about these guys. These contractors think they can do whatever they want with no respect to the locals where they are

Driveway Replacement - They are an awesome group from the person answering the phone down to the guys putting in the asphalt. Curt was very professional with estimate and sale. Ben and Louis were amazing at preparing the driveway and making everything work right with my project, even working on sprinklers and extras which shows they really care about the people they are working with. Asphalt guys were very efficient and did a great job.
