Coon Rapids' Trusted Paving Contractor

Erickson Asphalt has been paving driveways and maintaining parking lots in Coon Rapids for over 35 years. We work throughout this city, from the established neighborhoods along the Mississippi River to the commercial properties on Coon Rapids Boulevard and the residential areas near Bunker Hills.

Coon Rapids is one of the largest cities in the metro, and the age of its housing stock varies significantly by neighborhood. Properties developed in the 1960s and 1970s near the southern sections have driveways that are well past their expected lifespan. Newer areas to the north and west have homes where driveways may only need maintenance or first-time sealcoating. We work on properties at every stage.

Whether you need a driveway replacement, parking lot paving for a commercial property, or routine sealcoating, we handle it. And we put the Erickson name on every job.

This is a family-owned company, and our crews represent that name on every project. We do not subcontract your driveway to whoever shows up. The same accountability and quality standards apply whether we are paving a small residential driveway or a large commercial lot.

Over 35 Years Serving the Metro

We have been working in Coon Rapids since we started. That history means we know the neighborhoods, understand the soil conditions, and have seen how different paving approaches hold up over time. Local experience matters when you are building something designed to last decades.

Glacial Soils And Freeze-Thaw

Coon Rapids sits on glacial soils that present the same challenges found across the northern metro. Clay content varies by location, but it is present throughout much of the city. Clay holds moisture, expands when frozen, and causes the movement that cracks and settles pavement over time.

The city’s own Streets Division notes that Minnesota’s harsh climate is abusive to asphalt, with relentless freeze-thaw cycles affecting pavement throughout the year. Proper base preparation is the only way to build pavement that handles these conditions. We assess every project site to determine what the specific soil conditions require.

Permits For Repaving

Coon Rapids is one of the few metro cities that requires a permit for driveway repaving, not just new construction. If you are replacing your driveway, you need a driveway permit and utilities locate before work begins.

Coon Rapids has stricter permit requirements than most metro cities. The city requires a permit not just for new driveway construction, but also for repaving existing driveways. This is unusual in the metro, so it is worth knowing upfront. Driveways must be at least 10 feet wide and no more than 36 feet wide. Hard surface materials like asphalt or concrete are required. Gravel is not permitted.

When you work with Erickson, we handle the permit process for you. We know what Coon Rapids requires and make sure your project is compliant before we start work.
