Services
Asphalt Paving
Our asphalt paving services ensure long-lasting, smooth surfaces for residential driveways, commercial parking lots, and industrial sites. Using high-quality materials and modern techniques, we deliver efficient installations tailored to client needs. With decades of experience, we prioritize durability, safety, and aesthetic appeal for every project.
Seal Coating
Seal coating protects asphalt surfaces from UV damage, chemicals, and water erosion. We apply two coats of sealer after thorough cleaning and crack repair to extend pavement lifespan. Recommended within six months to three years of installation, this service maintains surface integrity and appearance.
Concrete
We provide concrete solutions including curbing, sidewalks, and foundations. Our process involves precise grading, base preparation, and finishing to ensure structural strength and longevity. Clients benefit from cost-effective, durable installations suited to residential and commercial needs.
Grading
Proper grading ensures effective drainage and a stable base for paving projects. Utilizing laser technology, we achieve precise slopes and surfaces to prevent water accumulation. This critical step guarantees the longevity and performance of asphalt and concrete installations.
Curbing
We install extruded concrete curbing for cost-effective, durable property boundaries and drainage solutions. While curb and gutter systems are reserved for large municipal projects, our curbing enhances aesthetics and functionality for residential and commercial sites.

I believe Caldwell paving typically handles large jobs but we had a small parking lot that needed repaired. We met with the owner Jonathan Cantrell and he was nice and professional. He completed the job on time and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied.
