Oakland County · 48442

Family owned. Owner supervised. Holly driveways and lots.

Holly is a historic village in the far north of Oakland County, with a compact downtown around Saginaw Street and Battle Alley and a large surrounding township of rural roads, lakes and the Holly Recreation Area. It is a short drive up Dixie Highway from our base in Highland, and we have paved here for a long time.

The work splits between the village and the township. In the village we replace and resurface older driveways on established lots and maintain the parking behind downtown businesses. Out in Holly Township and toward Rose Township it is long rural drives, private roads and larger properties where a well-built driveway has to carry real traffic and last through hard winters.

We handle both with the same crew and the same owner supervision, and we offer asphalt millings as a practical, affordable option for long rural drives where full hot-mix asphalt is more than the property needs.

Our Services

Paving services for Holly, MI.

Every service we offer is available in Holly. Established lots, downtown parking and the larger properties on the edge of town each need something a little different, and we do all of it with the same owner-supervised crew.

Asphalt Paving in Holly

New asphalt surfaces for driveways, private roads and parking areas, from excavation and base construction through hot-mix installation and compaction. In Holly that means careful work on established lots, clean edges against walks and walls, and an approach that ties into the street properly.

Commercial Parking Lots in Holly

Parking lot paving, resurfacing, repair, sealcoating and line striping for businesses of every size. For Holly’s downtown businesses we phase lot work so parking stays available and schedule around your busiest hours.

Sealcoating & Maintenance in Holly

Protective sealcoating, crack filling and routine maintenance that keep water out of the base and extend the life of the surface. For Holly’s older driveways and downtown lots, a regular sealing cycle keeps the surface tight against the freeze-thaw cycle.

Asphalt Resurfacing in Holly

A new wearing course over an existing surface whose base is still sound, restoring a worn driveway or lot to like-new condition. For Holly’s established driveways, we assess the base honestly and resurface only where it will hold.

Residential Paving in Holly

Driveways, walkways, private roads and turnarounds for homeowners, built to carry real use and finished to match the property. In Holly that means careful work on established, often tight lots with mature trees and close neighbors.

Asphalt Millings in Holly

Recycled asphalt pavement, delivered, graded and compacted into a firm, dark surface for drives, yards and parking areas. For a long drive or parking area on the edge of Holly, millings are a durable, affordable alternative.

Removal & Replacement in Holly

Complete removal of a failed surface, correction and recompaction of the base, and installation of new asphalt. For Holly’s oldest driveways, where patches are failing on top of patches, replacement gives you a surface that will last.

Parking Lot Repair in Holly

Pothole repair and patching, crack filling and sealing, surface leveling and line striping for existing lots. For Holly’s downtown businesses that means quick, tidy repairs that keep the lot safe and looking right.

Local Conditions

Paving in Holly: the ground and the weather.

Northern Oakland County ground is glacial and varied. Much of Holly Township is sandy and gravelly, which drains well and makes a good base, but there is plenty of low, wet ground near the many lakes and along the Shiawassee River. We assess each site and build the base to suit the actual ground rather than a standard depth.

Holly also sees some of the harder winters in the county. Rural drives get plowed hard, shaded sections stay frozen longer, and unsealed surfaces lose fines and start to ravel within a few seasons. Regular sealcoating and crack filling pay for themselves here.

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 Holly 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

Holly paving questions, straight answers.

The questions Holly property owners ask us most, answered honestly.

Do you work on the older homes in downtown Holly?

Yes. Village lots are often tight, with historic homes and limited staging room. We plan the job to protect the property and complete most driveways in a day.

Is Holly too far north for you to reach quickly?

No. Holly is a short drive up Dixie Highway from our Highland base, and we schedule northern Oakland County work regularly.

How long does a driveway take in Holly?

Most driveways on established lots are completed in a single day. Removal and replacement with base work can take two. We confirm the schedule when we quote.

When can I drive on the new surface?

Foot traffic is usually fine within a day. We ask you to keep vehicles off for a few days while the asphalt cures, and we will confirm the exact timing for your job.

Do you provide free estimates in Holly?

Yes. Every estimate is free. We come out, look at the lot and the access, and give you our honest recommendation while keeping your budget in mind.
