Asphalt Paving in Eugene, OR

Asphalt paving in Eugene faces the valley's familiar mix: a long wet season and cold mornings. Eugene, at the southern end of the Willamette Valley, averages about 40.8 inches of precipitation a year, with December the wettest month at about 7.2 inches. It also sees about 52 mornings a year at or below freezing, more than Corvallis. Water and freeze-thaw together open cracks and soften the base.

Rental-heavy city

In 2020, 51.6% of Eugene's occupied homes were rented, with the University of Oregon, Bushnell University and Lane Community College in town. Apartment lots and rental driveways need regular patching, crack sealing and restriping.

Freeze-thaw

Water in cracks freezes, expands and pries pavement apart. Sealing cracks in late summer is the best defense. We also make sure driveways drain so water does not sit on the surface overnight.

Rivers

The Willamette and McKenzie rivers run through Eugene and Springfield, and Amazon Creek drains toward the Long Tom. Low ground near waterways stays wet longer; we check subgrade carefully.

Typical projects

• Apartment lot patching and striping
• Driveway replacement
• Overlays
• Crack sealing before the rains

Scheduling

We schedule Eugene work in dry months and group nearby jobs.

Hillside neighborhoods

South Eugene's hills mean steep driveways that need careful compaction and runoff control. We add drains where water runs down a driveway toward a garage.

Overlays

For older lots with a sound base, overlays restore the surface for less than replacement. We patch failures first.
