Asphalt Paving Contractor in Houston, TX
Asphalt Paving Built for Houston
Houston puts asphalt through a lot. The summer heat softens it, heavy rain tests the drainage, and daily traffic wears it down faster than most people expect. If your pavement was not installed correctly from the start, all of that adds up to cracking, potholes, and a surface that looks worn out well before it should.PaveTec is an asphalt paving contractor serving homes and businesses across Houston. We handle everything from new driveways and parking lots to resurfacing projects that bring old, damaged pavement back to life. Our crews understand what Houston's climate and soil do to asphalt over time, and we build every project to hold up against it.Whether you need a new driveway at home, a parking lot for your business, or a full resurfacing job, we walk you through the process from start to finish and make sure the finished job actually lasts.

Our Asphalt Paving Services
New asphalt driveways. A well built asphalt driveway gives you a smooth, durable surface at a lower cost than concrete, with a shorter installation timeline. We handle grading, base prep, and the final pour so it holds up for years.
Commercial parking lots. From small business lots to larger commercial properties, we design and install parking lots that handle daily traffic, drainage needs, and any striping or layout requirements your business has.
Asphalt resurfacing. If your existing pavement is cracked or worn but the base underneath is still solid, resurfacing can restore it without the cost of a full replacement.
Full replacement. When the base has failed or the damage is too extensive for a repair, we remove the old asphalt and install a new pavement system built to last.
Sealcoating. A fresh sealcoat protects your asphalt from sun damage, water, and everyday wear, and it keeps the surface looking clean and well kept.
Signs You Need a New Asphalt Surface
Not sure whether your pavement needs a repair, resurfacing, or full replacement? A few signs are worth watching for. Cracks that keep spreading no matter how many times they are patched, potholes that keep coming back, standing water that does not drain properly, and a surface that feels soft or uneven under weight. We will take a look and give you an honest answer on what your pavement actually needs.
Our Paving Process
Free consultation. We visit your property, look at the current condition of your pavement or the site for a new install, and talk through your goals and budget.
Site prep and grading. We grade the area to the correct slope for drainage and prepare a solid base, which is one of the most important steps for long lasting asphalt.
Asphalt installation. We lay and compact the asphalt to the proper thickness for the type of traffic it will see, whether that is a home driveway or a busy commercial lot.
Finishing touches. For parking lots, this includes striping, curbing, or signage as needed. For driveways, we make sure edges and transitions are clean and finished well.
Final walkthrough. We walk the finished project with you to make sure everything meets your expectations before we consider the job done.

Keeping Your Asphalt in Good Shape
Asphalt lasts a lot longer with a bit of regular care. Sealcoat every two to three years to protect against Houston's sun and rain. Fill small cracks as soon as you notice them, since they only get worse and more expensive to fix if left alone. Keep drainage clear so water does not sit on the surface, and avoid heavy equipment or vehicles parking in the same spot for long periods, which can cause the asphalt to soften and rut.
