A crew that builds asphalt to last

We install and repair asphalt using hot-mix placed in compacted lifts, with tight joints and clean transitions at garages, walks, and curb lines. Typical residential sections run about 2-3 inches compacted over a properly compacted aggregate base, adjusted for soil and load.

For commercial lots we focus on the high-stress areas first, including entrances, drive lanes, and dumpster pads, using saw-cut removal, full-depth patching, or overlays where the base is stable. Work is compacted with vibratory rollers and plate compactors to reduce raveling and premature cracking.

A straightforward plan, built around your property

Every job starts with field measurements, drainage review, and identifying failure types like alligator cracking, rutting, or edge breakup. We specify the fix, including milling versus remove and replace, tack coat at seams, and crack routing and sealing where appropriate.

You get a free written estimate that lists square footage, proposed thickness, repair quantities, and optional add-ons like sealcoating and striping. After the work, we confirm water flow, check compaction at edges, and review cure-time and maintenance steps.

Asphalt contractor built for real property needs

Apex Asphalt Lakewood focuses on asphalt that performs, not quick cosmetic fixes. Since 2019 we have handled driveways, private roads, and commercial parking lots with the same priorities: stable base, correct slope, tight joints, and thorough compaction.

Our crews work with hot-mix asphalt, tack coat for bonding, commercial-grade crack sealant, and sealcoating systems designed to protect the surface from oxidation and moisture. When the right answer is structural, we recommend saw-cut remove and replace or full-depth patching instead of layering over failure.

Asphalt that holds up to Lakewood weather and soils

Along the Front Range, freeze-thaw cycles push water into cracks, then expand them into alligator cracking and potholes. Sun and wind dry out binder, making the surface brittle, especially on south-facing lots and drive lanes with turning traffic.

We build and repair with drainage in mind, correcting birdbaths, improving slope to inlets or edges, and stabilizing weak areas before new asphalt goes down. Proper compaction and sealed cracks reduce water intrusion, which is the root cause of most premature failures in Lakewood and surrounding areas.

What Every Lakewood Homeowner Should Know About Asphalt

How do I know if I need an overlay or full replacement?

If the surface is mostly intact with minor cracking and the base is stable, an asphalt overlay (resurfacing) can be cost-effective. If you have widespread alligator cracking, pumping, rutting, or soft spots, the base is failing and you usually need remove and replace or full-depth patching in the bad sections first.

What causes potholes to keep coming back?

Potholes are typically a water and base problem, not just a surface problem. If water gets through cracks and weakens the subgrade, patching without correcting the underlying failure often reopens. The longer-lasting fix is saw-cutting to sound pavement, repairing the base, and placing hot-mix asphalt in compacted lifts.

When should a driveway or lot be sealcoated?

Sealcoating is protection, not repair. It works best on asphalt that is in good condition after cracks are cleaned and filled. Many properties benefit from a sealcoat every 2-4 years depending on traffic, sun exposure, and snow removal wear.

Why does crack filling matter so much?

Cracks are the main entry point for water. Routing or cleaning the crack and installing commercial crack sealant helps keep water out of the base, slowing freeze-thaw damage and reducing pothole formation. It also makes sealcoating perform better and last longer.

How thick should asphalt be for a driveway vs a parking lot?

Thickness depends on the base, soil, and load. A typical residential driveway often needs about 2-3 inches of compacted hot-mix over a well-compacted aggregate base, while commercial drive lanes and loading areas often require thicker sections and stronger base design. We verify conditions on site and specify the right build for your traffic.

What should I do before paving day?

Move vehicles, trailers, and dumpsters, and mark sprinklers or low-voltage lines near edges. If we are rebuilding, plan for access changes during grading and compaction. We will provide a simple prep checklist and expected cure times for foot and vehicle traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions in Lakewood

Do you provide free written estimates?

Yes. We provide a free written estimate that lists the scope, materials (hot-mix asphalt, tack coat, crack sealant, sealcoat), and an expected schedule.

How long before we can drive on new asphalt?

Light foot traffic is often possible the same day, and vehicle traffic is typically allowed after the asphalt cools and gains initial stability. We give site-specific guidance based on thickness, temperature, and turning movements.

Can you repair only the failed sections instead of repaving everything?

Often, yes. We can do targeted repairs like saw-cut remove and replace, full-depth patching, or infrared patching, then blend the repairs into a maintenance plan such as crack filling and sealcoating.

Do you handle parking lot striping after paving?

Yes. We can restripe after paving or sealcoating, including stall lines, fire lanes, directional arrows, and accessible markings, based on your layout and requirements.

What is included in proper asphalt prep?

Prep typically includes demolition or milling if needed, grading for drainage, compacting aggregate base, addressing soft spots, applying tack coat where new asphalt meets existing pavement, and compacting hot-mix with vibratory rollers for density.
