Phoenix Asphalt Co. provides asphalt paving, repair and maintenance, sealcoating, resurfacing and overlay, milling and removal, and parking lot striping for properties across Phoenix and the metro area. Our crews work on residential driveways, commercial parking lots, and municipal surfaces throughout the Salt River Valley. Every recommendation is shaped by the site's drainage, traffic, soil, and load requirements instead of a one-size-fits-all approach.
Phoenix pavement surface temperatures regularly reach 140-160°F in summer, softening binder and accelerating oxidation. Monsoon water can enter unsealed cracks or pond on poorly sloped pavement, while caliche and expansive clay demand careful subgrade preparation. We excavate, compact aggregate base in lifts, place hot-mix asphalt to the required thickness, and check density and slope. As a licensed, insured, and bonded Phoenix paving company, we also follow ADA striping standards on commercial layouts.
Our service area includes Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Peoria, Sun City, and the broader Maricopa County area. We offer a free asphalt estimate and pavement assessment, evaluating base condition, cracking, drainage, and traffic needs before recommending repair, overlay, or replacement.
New asphalt installation starts below the surface, with aggregate base compacted in lifts and hot mix placed to the specified thickness-typically 2 to 4 inches depending on load requirements. Vibratory rolling, density targets, and slope checks help produce a smooth surface that drains instead of ponding.
We assess pavement structure before recommending a scope. An overlay is reserved for pavement with a sound base; alligator cracking, rutting, drainage trouble, or base failure may call for milling, targeted repair, or full removal instead.
Property use determines the design: residential driveways commonly use 2 to 3 inches of compacted hot mix over 4 inches of aggregate base, while commercial lots often require 3 to 4 inches of asphalt over 6-plus inches of base. We account for daily vehicle loads, truck traffic, drainage, and site access before work begins.
Our vision is to help Phoenix-area property owners preserve pavement through the region's intense UV exposure, heat cycles, and monsoon rainfall. A well-maintained asphalt surface can last 15 to 30 years, and sealcoating every 2 to 3 years helps protect the binder from water, oil, gas, and oxidation.
Our mission is to pair the right treatment with careful execution, from hot-applied rubberized crack sealant and base repairs beneath potholes to reinforced truck lanes and 1.5- to 2-inch overlays on structurally sound pavement. A properly overlaid surface can add another 8 to 12 years of service life, while reclaimed asphalt from milling can return to hot-mix production and reduce virgin aggregate use.
