Services

Our Paving Services in South King County

Our Kent crews take on jobs across South King County, from a warehouse lot near the airport to a stretch of city street, with the same grading and paving standards on every project.

Parking Lot Paving

We pave, resurface, and restripe parking lots for retail, industrial, and commercial properties throughout Kent, Auburn, and the surrounding towns. Correct grading up front is what keeps a lot from cracking under repeated heavy vehicle traffic.

Asphalt Repair and Pothole Patching

We repair cracked, sunken, and deteriorating asphalt and patch potholes for property managers and municipalities across South King County. Fixing a soft spot early costs less than waiting for it to become a full pothole.

Roads, Streets, and Highways

Our crews pave and maintain roads and highways for Kent, South King County agencies, and private developers building new streets. Grading, paving, and striping are handled by the same crew from start to finish.

Airport Work

Airfield surfaces call for tighter grading tolerances and closer coordination with facility staff than most road work, and our crews are equipped to plan around active operations when the job calls for it.

Hot Mix Asphalt and EZ Street from the Kent Division

Our Kent division sells hot mix asphalt, EZ Street cold patch, and crushed rock by the ton to contractors and crews working in south King County. Call first to confirm availability, since hot mix has to go down while it is still warm.

Call for hours and availability.

Redondo Waterfront and Woodmont Road

In October 2022, our Kent crews worked with the City of Des Moines to upgrade the Redondo Waterfront area and Woodmont Road. The prep crew ground out the old asphalt and concrete, the paving crew laid the new surface, and traffic control kept the road open the entire time. Over 25 working days, the crew also added ductile pipe and new catch basins, replaced concrete, adjusted utilities, and striped the roadway.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Request an Estimate
Do you take private and commercial jobs, not only public roads?

Yes. In addition to public contracts, we pave parking lots, private roads, and repair jobs for commercial property owners. Driveways are not part of this division's scope; a few other Lakeside locations handle that work instead.

Can I buy hot mix or cold patch by the ton?

Yes. Call our Kent division ahead of time so we can have your order ready when you arrive.

What is EZ Street?

EZ Street is a cold mix asphalt built to work at outdoor temperature, so it needs no heating before you use it. We stock it in 50 lb bags, 500 lb sacks, and 1-ton and 2-ton bulk sacks.
