Family owned. Owner supervised. Auburn Hills driveways and lots.

Auburn Hills is one of the biggest employment centers in Oakland County. The Stellantis headquarters and technology campus, the office and research parks along the M-59 and I-75 corridors, Great Lakes Crossing Outlets and Oakland University all sit within a few miles of each other, and every one of them runs on parking. Around that commercial core are established subdivisions and newer neighborhoods off Squirrel Road, Adams Road and University Drive.

For Auburn Hills businesses, Asphalt Express LLC handles parking lot paving, resurfacing, repair, sealcoating and line striping, planned around shift changes and business hours so the lot stays usable. Office and light industrial lots in the tech parks often need heavier construction at the truck entrances and loading areas than across the stalls, and we build them that way. For homeowners, most of the work is driveway resurfacing and replacement on homes that are now 25 to 50 years old.

Highland is a short drive up M-59, so we are in Auburn Hills regularly, and the owner supervises every job.

Our Services

Paving services for Auburn Hills, MI.

Every service we offer is available in Auburn Hills. Commercial and industrial lots make up a large share of the work here, and homeowners get the same owner-supervised crew on their driveways.

Asphalt Paving in Auburn Hills

New asphalt surfaces for driveways, private roads and parking areas, from excavation and base construction through hot-mix installation and compaction. In Auburn Hills that ranges from a single subdivision driveway to a new lot for an office or industrial building.

Commercial Parking Lots in Auburn Hills

Parking lot paving, resurfacing, repair, sealcoating and line striping for businesses of every size. For the office, research and industrial parks along M-59 and I-75 we phase the work, build heavier sections where trucks run and finish with fresh striping.

Sealcoating & Maintenance in Auburn Hills

Protective sealcoating, crack filling and routine maintenance that keep water out of the base and extend the life of the surface. For Auburn Hills commercial lots we set up a sealcoating and crack filling schedule so small cracks are closed before they reach the base.

Asphalt Resurfacing in Auburn Hills

A new wearing course over an existing surface whose base is still sound, restoring a worn driveway or lot to like-new condition. For an Auburn Hills lot or driveway with a sound base, resurfacing gives you a new surface for much less than a full replacement.

Residential Paving in Auburn Hills

Driveways, walkways, private roads and turnarounds for homeowners, built to carry real use and finished to match the property. Auburn Hills subdivisions get the same owner-supervised crew and base preparation as our commercial work.

Asphalt Millings in Auburn Hills

Recycled asphalt pavement, delivered, graded and compacted into a firm, dark surface for drives, yards and parking areas. For overflow parking, equipment yards and storage areas in Auburn Hills, millings give you a firm surface without the cost of hot mix.

Removal & Replacement in Auburn Hills

Complete removal of a failed surface, correction and recompaction of the base, and installation of new asphalt. For an Auburn Hills lot that has been patched over and over, replacement on a rebuilt base is often better value than another round of repairs.

Parking Lot Repair in Auburn Hills

Pothole repair and patching, crack filling and sealing, surface leveling and line striping for existing lots. For busy Auburn Hills lots that means quick response on potholes, failed patches and worn striping before they become a safety problem.

Local Conditions

Paving in Auburn Hills: the ground and the weather.

Most of Auburn Hills sits on clay, with lower, wetter ground along the Clinton River and Galloway Creek. Clay holds water and heaves when it freezes, so a well-compacted aggregate base and good surface drainage matter on every driveway and lot we build here. Where we find soft spots we dig them out and rebuild with fabric and aggregate before any asphalt goes down.

On commercial sites, traffic wears a lot as hard as the weather does. Entrances, drive lanes and the areas around loading docks and dumpster pads fail first, and that is where we recommend thicker asphalt. With crack filling every year and sealcoating every two to three years, an Auburn Hills lot can go many years before it needs resurfacing.

Seasonal weight restrictions and road standards in Oakland County are set by the Road Commission for Oakland County; for hot-mix specifications we work to the Asphalt Pavement Association of Michigan guidance.

How We Work

The same five steps on every Auburn Hills paving job.

Walk the site and quote
We look at the ground, the access and the drainage, and give you a free, honest estimate for what the job actually needs.
Prepare the base
Excavate to the right depth, correct soft ground with fabric and aggregate, and compact a base that will not move.
Grade for drainage
Shape the surface so water sheds away from the house, the lake or the building, and toward ground that can take it.
Lay and compact the asphalt
Hot mix placed at the right temperature and rolled to spec while it is workable, with clean edges and transitions.
Finish and protect
Striping where needed, a clean site, and a sealing schedule so the surface stays tight through Michigan winters.

FAQs

Auburn Hills paving questions, straight answers.

The questions Auburn Hills property owners ask us most, answered honestly.

Can you pave our Auburn Hills lot without shutting the business down?

Yes. We phase the work so part of the lot stays open, and we can schedule sections for evenings, weekends or between shifts.

Do you handle lots with truck traffic and loading docks?

Yes. We build the truck routes, entrances and dock areas with a heavier base and thicker asphalt than the car parking, because that is where lots fail first.

My Auburn Hills driveway is cracked all over. Resurface or replace?

It depends on the base. If the base is still solid, a resurface restores it for much less. If it has failed, we will tell you and quote removal and replacement. We check before we quote.

How often should a commercial lot be sealcoated?

Every two to three years for most lots, with crack filling each year. Busier lots may need it more often. We can put you on a schedule so it gets done without you having to remember.

Do you provide free estimates in Auburn Hills?

Yes. Every estimate is free. We look at the site, tell you what it needs and what can wait, and give you an honest price.
