Driveway Paving

A new asphalt driveway that looks sharp, drains properly, and stands up to Michigan winters. We handle everything from excavation to the final roll.

Your driveway is the first thing people notice about your property. A cracked, potholed surface drags down curb appeal and can even damage vehicles. Capital Paving builds driveways that last, using proper base preparation and commercial-grade asphalt designed for Southeast Michigan conditions.

We start every project with a thorough site assessment, evaluating drainage, soil conditions, and existing surfaces. From there, we build a compacted aggregate base that prevents settling and cracking, then lay hot-mix asphalt with precision grading for proper water runoff.
