Why High River Properties Need Professional Acreage & Driveway Paving

High River's mix of established residential streets, commercial properties along Highway 2A, and surrounding agricultural acreages. Acreage and rural driveways in the High River area face heavy load stress from farm equipment, trailers, and trucks — combined with drainage challenges and the most extreme freeze-thaw conditions in Alberta. Proper base prep, drainage design, and high-spec asphalt are non-negotiable.

Our Acreage & Driveway Paving Process

  1. Survey: Walk the route, identify drainage issues, culvert needs, and base condition.
  2. Base prep: Grade and compact crushed gravel base to spec — 6–12 inches depending on use.
  3. Pave: Hot-mix asphalt placed and rolled in lifts to match design thickness.
  4. Maintain: Crack fill every 2–3 years and sealcoat every 3 years to maximize lifespan.
