Driveways, parking lots, sealcoating and resurfacing in Sterling Heights. Family owned for over 30 years, owner supervised on every jobsite, free estimates.
Sterling Heights is one of the largest cities in Michigan, a broad grid of subdivisions built mostly from the 1960s through the 1990s between Dequindre and Hayes, with major commercial corridors along Van Dyke, Hall Road (M-59), Mound and Metropolitan Parkway, and a substantial industrial base. It is the eastern edge of our regular service area and one of the places we pave most.
Asphalt Express LLC has paved in Sterling Heights for over 30 years. For homeowners the typical job is a driveway replacement or resurface on a home that is now 30 to 60 years old and has reached the end of its original or second surface. For businesses and industrial properties we handle full lot paving, resurfacing, repair, sealcoating, crack filling and striping, phased so the property stays open and built heavier where truck traffic demands it.
The owner supervises every job.
Every service we offer is available in Sterling Heights. Most of our work here is residential driveway replacement and resurfacing, but the businesses along the main roads get the same crew and the same standard.
New asphalt surfaces for driveways, private roads and parking areas, from excavation and base construction through hot-mix installation and compaction. In Sterling Heights that is most often a full driveway replacement on a home that has outlived its original surface.
Parking lot paving, resurfacing, repair, sealcoating and line striping for businesses of every size. For Sterling Heights retail, office and service businesses we phase the work so parking is always available and finish with fresh striping.
Protective sealcoating, crack filling and routine maintenance that keep water out of the base and extend the life of the surface. For a Sterling Heights subdivision driveway, sealing every two to three years is what keeps it out of the replacement budget.
A new wearing course over an existing surface whose base is still sound, restoring a worn driveway or lot to like-new condition. Many Sterling Heights driveways from the 1980s and 90s are candidates: the base is fine, the surface is not.
Driveways, walkways, private roads and turnarounds for homeowners, built to carry real use and finished to match the property. In Sterling Heights that is mostly driveway replacement and resurfacing in the established subdivisions.
Recycled asphalt pavement, delivered, graded and compacted into a firm, dark surface for drives, yards and parking areas. For a side drive, RV pad or long approach in Sterling Heights, millings are a practical alternative to full paving.
Complete removal of a failed surface, correction and recompaction of the base, and installation of new asphalt. For a Sterling Heights driveway with alligator cracking and sunken sections, the base has failed and replacement is the right call.
Pothole repair and patching, crack filling and sealing, surface levelling and line striping for existing lots. For Sterling Heights businesses that means potholes fixed quickly, cracks sealed and striping refreshed.
Sterling Heights is flat and largely clay, with the Clinton River creating lower, wetter ground through the middle of the city. Clay holds water and heaves in winter, so drainage and a compacted base are what keep a driveway or lot from breaking up.
On subdivision driveways that have never been sealed we typically see greying, ravelling and cracking that has let water into the base. Sealing every two to three years from early on is far cheaper than replacement, and we recommend it for every surface we build.
Seasonal weight restrictions and road standards in Macomb County are set by the Macomb County Department of Roads; for hot-mix specifications we work to the Asphalt Pavement Association of Michigan guidance.
We look at the ground, the access and the drainage, and give you a free, honest estimate for what the job actually needs.
Excavate to the right depth, correct soft ground with fabric and aggregate, and compact a base that will not move.
Shape the surface so water sheds away from the house, the lake or the building, and toward ground that can take it.
Hot mix placed at the right temperature and rolled to spec while it is workable, with clean edges and transitions.
Striping where needed, a clean site, and a sealing schedule so the surface stays tight through Michigan winters.
The owner checks the base before the paver arrives and the finish before we leave. That is how our standard stays consistent across hundreds of driveways.
