Since 1949, property managers, facility directors, and commercial developers throughout Shakopee, MN and the greater Twin Cities Metro have turned to us when quality and reliability are non-negotiable. As the largest asphalt company serving the Minneapolis, MN area, we bring unmatched capacity, experienced crews, and a track record that speaks for itself on every project we touch.

Why Commercial Properties Choose Asphalt Paving

Asphalt is the preferred surface for commercial properties — and for good reason. It installs faster than concrete, costs less upfront, and handles Minnesota’s extreme freeze-thaw cycles better than most alternative materials. For parking lots, access roads, loading zones, and facility driveways, properly installed asphalt delivers years of reliable service with minimal maintenance.

  • Faster Installation — Asphalt cures quickly, meaning less downtime for your tenants, customers, and operations
  • Cost-Effective — Lower material and labor costs than concrete with comparable durability in commercial settings
  • Flexible and Resilient — Asphalt flexes under load, making it ideal for heavy delivery vehicles and high-traffic commercial use
  • Minnesota Winter-Ready — Properly installed hot-mix asphalt expands and contracts with the freeze-thaw cycle without cracking prematurely
  • Excellent ROI — A well-maintained asphalt surface lasts 20–30 years and supports strong property values

Our Commercial Asphalt Paving Process

Every commercial paving project we take on follows a structured, proven process developed over 75+ years of Twin Cities work. We don’t cut corners on base preparation — that’s where most asphalt failures originate. Our crews are experienced, our equipment is well-maintained, and our commitment to quality shows from the first pass to the final compaction roll.

  • Site Evaluation — We assess existing conditions, drainage patterns, subbase quality, and traffic loads before quoting
  • Subbase Preparation — Proper grading and compaction of the aggregate base is critical to long-term performance
  • Hot-Mix Asphalt Application — We apply the correct asphalt mix for your traffic type and load requirements
  • Compaction — Steel drum rollers achieve the proper density for a stable, durable surface
  • Final Inspection — We review the finished surface with you before leaving the site

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does commercial asphalt paving take?

Most commercial parking lots and access roads are completed in one to three days, depending on size. We work with your schedule to minimize disruption to your business operations.

How soon can the lot be used after paving?

Asphalt is typically ready for foot traffic within 24 hours and vehicle traffic within 48–72 hours. We’ll give you a clear timeline specific to your project and weather conditions.

What's the difference between asphalt paving and resurfacing?

Full paving involves subbase preparation and a complete new asphalt installation. Resurfacing places a new asphalt layer over an existing surface in good structural condition. We’ll assess your property and recommend the right solution.

Yes. As the largest asphalt contractor serving the Twin Cities Metro area, we have the crew capacity and equipment fleet to handle projects of all sizes — from small commercial lots to large industrial facilities.

We serve the entire Twin Cities Metro area including Shakopee, Minneapolis, Eden Prairie, Bloomington, Edina, Minnetonka, Burnsville, and many more communities throughout the region.
