Paving in Salem
Asphalt paving in Salem covers a wide range: hillside driveways in South Salem and West Salem, older neighborhoods near downtown, and commercial lots across the city. Salem is Oregon's capital and second-largest city, with 175,535 residents in 2020. It averages about 40 inches of precipitation a year, mostly October through April, with measurable rain on about 148 days.
Hills and valley floor
City limits range from about 120 to 800 feet. Hillside driveways need firm edges and careful runoff control; valley-floor lots need a base that stays firm on wet ground. We plan both the same way: soft material out, crushed rock in, and a slope that sends water away.
Both sides of the river
The Willamette runs north through Salem and divides Marion County from Polk County; West Salem is in Polk County. We work on both sides.
Owners and renters
In 2020, 55.4% of Salem's occupied homes were owner-occupied. We pave and maintain driveways for owners and lots for landlords and businesses.
Typical projects
- Hillside driveway replacements
- Commercial lot overlays and striping
- Apartment lot patching
- Crack sealing before the rains
Scheduling
We schedule Salem work in the dry months and combine nearby jobs to keep travel costs down.
Apartment and rental lots
With many rental properties, Salem has plenty of apartment lots that need regular patching, crack sealing and restriping. We schedule work in sections so residents can still park.
Crack sealing
Sealing cracks each late summer keeps winter water out of the base.
