Five services that cover the life of your pavement.
From the dirt work underneath to the striping on top, United Way Asphalt handles the full cycle of asphalt construction and maintenance for homes and businesses.
Service overview
What we do, and what each service is actually for.
Asphalt has a predictable life cycle. It gets built on a graded base, it gets protected while it is healthy, it gets repaired when water finds a way in, and eventually it gets replaced. Each of our services belongs to one of those stages, and knowing which stage your surface is in is most of the decision.
Sealcoating
A protective surface coating that shields asphalt from sun, water, and traffic wear while restoring a clean, uniform black finish.
Sealcoating details
Asphalt Repair & Crack Filling
Targeted repair of potholes, failing patches, edge breakup, and cracks so water stays out of the base and damage stops spreading.

Parking Lot Striping
New layouts and restriping for stalls, arrows, accessible spaces, fire lanes, and loading zones, applied to an approved layout.

Grading & Site Preparation
Dirt work, excavation, rough and final grading, subgrade correction, and base preparation so the pavement above it has something solid to sit on.
Grading & Site Preparation detailsChoosing
A simple way to think about it.
Build it right
Grading and site preparation, then asphalt paving. The base determines the lifespan far more than the surface does.
Protect it
Sealcoating and crack filling on a healthy surface, on a repeating cycle, to keep sun and water from doing their work.
Fix it or replace it
Asphalt repair for isolated failures. Replacement when the base is gone and patching would only buy a season.
Service questions
Picking the right service.
If you need something specific, call or text us and we can talk it through.
Which service does my pavement actually need?
If the surface is sound but dull and dry, sealcoating is usually the answer. If water is getting in through cracks or potholes, repair comes first. If the base has failed or the surface is beyond patching, paving or replacement is the honest recommendation.
Can you combine services on one visit?
Often yes. Crack filling before sealcoating and striping after sealcoating are common pairings, and grading is usually part of any new paving project.
Do you do both residential and commercial work?
Yes. All five services are performed for residential driveways and commercial parking lots alike.
