Hear from Our Customers
You’re looking at a smooth, crack-free surface that handles Tennessee weather without breaking down every few years. No more puddles after every storm. No more embarrassing potholes greeting your customers or guests.
Your driveway becomes an asset, not a liability. Property values increase when the first thing people see actually looks professional. You get 20-30 years of reliable performance instead of constant repairs and patch jobs that never quite look right.
The difference shows immediately. Clean lines, proper drainage, surfaces that stay smooth through freeze-thaw cycles. This is what happens when you work with a paving company that understands Wilson County soil conditions and weather patterns.
We’ve been the trusted paving company for Wilson County since the 1970s. We’re veteran-owned, locally operated, and we’ve paved thousands of driveways and parking lots right here in your community.
You’re not dealing with a fly-by-night operation or some crew from three counties over. We know Doaks Crossroads. We understand how the clay soil affects foundation stability and why proper drainage matters so much in this area.
When you call us, you’re working with the same family that’s been serving your neighbors for five decades. We’re still here because we do the work right the first time.
We start with a site visit to assess your current surface and drainage situation. No guesswork. We measure everything, check the existing base, and explain exactly what your property needs.
Next comes preparation. We handle excavation if needed, install proper grading for drainage, and build the foundation that keeps your pavement stable for decades. This is where most contractors cut corners. We don’t.
Then we apply your chosen material—whether that’s traditional asphalt, concrete, or our popular tar and chip option. We use commercial-grade equipment and proven techniques that account for Tennessee’s temperature swings and rainfall patterns. Most residential projects wrap up in 1-2 days.

We handle everything from residential driveways to large commercial parking lots. Asphalt paving for smooth, durable surfaces. Concrete work for specific applications. Tar and chip for cost-effective rural driveways and farm roads.
Doaks Crossroads businesses choose us because we understand the importance of professional appearance and minimal downtime. Your customers need safe, accessible parking. You need surfaces that last through heavy traffic and Tennessee weather without constant maintenance calls.
For homeowners, we offer the same professional-grade materials and installation techniques. Your driveway gets the same attention to detail as a major commercial project. That’s why our residential work lasts 20-30 years with basic maintenance like sealcoating every 2-3 years.
Properly installed asphalt paving lasts 20-30 years in Tennessee with routine maintenance. The key is proper installation that accounts for our soil conditions and climate.
We build foundations that handle freeze-thaw cycles and use asphalt mixes designed for temperature swings. Most failures happen because contractors skip proper base preparation or use inferior materials. When you sealcoat every 2-3 years and address small cracks promptly, your pavement stays strong for decades.
Tar and chip paving costs 30-40% less than traditional asphalt and provides excellent durability for driveways and rural roads. The process involves spraying hot liquid asphalt over a prepared base, then embedding crushed stone chips for texture and strength.
Asphalt gives you a smooth, uniform surface that’s ideal for high-traffic areas and commercial applications. Tar and chip offers a rustic, textured appearance that many homeowners prefer, especially for longer driveways where cost matters. Both options handle Tennessee weather well when properly installed.
Driveway paving costs in Wilson County typically range from $7-13 per square foot for new asphalt installation, depending on site conditions and preparation needed. Tar and chip options run $2-5 per square foot.
The total cost depends on your driveway size, current condition, drainage requirements, and material choice. A standard 600-square-foot driveway runs $4,200-7,800 for asphalt or $1,200-3,000 for tar and chip. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Yes, we specialize in commercial parking lot paving throughout Wilson County. We handle everything from small business lots to large industrial facilities, including proper drainage design, ADA compliance, and line striping.
Commercial projects require different approaches than residential work. We use heavier-duty asphalt mixes, plan for higher traffic loads, and work around your business schedule to minimize disruption. Our commercial clients appreciate our attention to safety, professional appearance, and long-term durability that reduces maintenance costs.
You can drive on new asphalt after 24-48 hours, but full curing takes 20-30 days. We recommend light traffic only for the first week to prevent surface damage while the asphalt continues hardening.
Temperature affects curing time. Hot summer weather speeds the process, while cooler fall temperatures require more patience. We provide specific guidance based on weather conditions during your installation. Avoid parking in the same spots repeatedly during the first month, and don’t use kickstands or jack stands on the new surface until it’s fully cured.
Absolutely. We provide complete maintenance services including sealcoating, crack repair, pothole patching, and line striping. Regular maintenance extends pavement life significantly and prevents small problems from becoming expensive repairs.
Sealcoating every 2-4 years protects against water intrusion, UV damage, and chemical spills. Crack filling prevents water from reaching the base layer, which is especially important during Tennessee’s freeze-thaw cycles. We recommend annual inspections to catch issues early when repairs are simple and affordable.
