Driveways, parking lots, sealcoating and resurfacing in West Bloomfield. Family owned for over 30 years, owner supervised on every jobsite, free estimates.
West Bloomfield Township is one of the largest and most affluent communities in Oakland County, with lakefront estates on Pine Lake, Cass Lake, Orchard Lake, Walnut Lake and Union Lake, substantial homes in wooded subdivisions off Maple, Walnut Lake Road and Orchard Lake Road, and busy commercial corridors along Orchard Lake Road, Haggerty and Maple.
Asphalt Express LLC has paved in West Bloomfield for over 30 years. Residential work ranges from long private estate drives with motor courts to driveway replacement in the established subdivisions, and it is held to a high standard: clean edges, even texture and drainage that protects the home. Commercial work along the main corridors is phased and scheduled so the business stays open.
Owner supervision is standard on every West Bloomfield job, because on a property like these the base, the grades and the finish all have to be right.
Every service we offer is available in West Bloomfield. Lake lots, shared access roads and the businesses along the main corridors each need something a little different, and we do all of it with the same owner-supervised crew.
New asphalt surfaces for driveways, private roads and parking areas, from excavation and base construction through hot-mix installation and compaction. On West Bloomfield's lake lots that means a base built for wet ground and a surface graded to shed water away from the house.
Parking lot paving, resurfacing, repair, sealcoating and line striping for businesses of every size. For West Bloomfield businesses along the main roads we phase the work so the lot stays open and customers keep parking.
Protective sealcoating, crack filling and routine maintenance that keep water out of the base and extend the life of the surface. On West Bloomfield's shaded, wet lake drives it is the single most cost-effective thing you can do to make the surface last.
A new wearing course over an existing surface whose base is still sound, restoring a worn driveway or lot to like-new condition. Where a West Bloomfield lake drive has a sound base under a worn surface, resurfacing restores it for far less than replacement.
Driveways, walkways, private roads and turnarounds for homeowners, built to carry real use and finished to match the property. In West Bloomfield that includes narrow, steep and shared lake-lot drives built for wet ground and winter traction.
Recycled asphalt pavement, delivered, graded and compacted into a firm, dark surface for drives, yards and parking areas. For a long access drive or parking area on a West Bloomfield lake property, millings give a firm, dust-free surface at a fraction of the cost.
Complete removal of a failed surface, correction and recompaction of the base, and installation of new asphalt. On West Bloomfield lake lots where a thin old drive has broken up on wet ground, this is usually the honest answer.
Pothole repair and patching, crack filling and sealing, surface levelling and line striping for existing lots. For West Bloomfield businesses that means quick pothole and section repair so the lot stays safe.
West Bloomfield's lakes and the low ground between them create a high water table across much of the township, and a driveway base that stays wet will heave every winter and rut every spring. On lake-area lots we excavate deeper, add drainage aggregate and geotextile fabric, and grade the surface so runoff has a proper path away from the house.
Mature tree cover on many lots keeps drives shaded, wet and frozen longer, which accelerates freeze-thaw damage. Annual crack filling and sealcoating every two to three years are the most cost-effective protection for a long, high-value drive.
Seasonal weight restrictions and road standards in Oakland County are set by the Road Commission for Oakland County; 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.
Lake lots are where a driveway either lasts or fails, and it is decided at the base. The owner checks the ground, the base and the drainage on every job.
Three decades of paving around Southeast Michigan's lakes. Most of our West Bloomfield work comes from referrals and repeat customers on the same lake.
We come out, look at the ground and the access, and tell you what the drive actually needs. No pressure, no surprises.
Deeper excavation, drainage aggregate and geotextile fabric where the site demands it. That is the difference between a lake drive that lasts and one that heaves.
