Erickson Asphalt & Concrete has been serving St. Paul homeowners and businesses for over 35 years. We know this city from the historic neighborhoods of Summit Hill and Cathedral Hill to the commercial corridors along University Avenue and West Seventh Street.
St. Paul’s older housing stock means many properties have concrete driveways, sidewalks, and patios that were installed decades ago. Whether you need a concrete driveway replacement in Highland Park, a new patio in Macalester-Groveland, or sidewalk repair in Como Park, we handle the full scope of residential and commercial concrete work.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Concrete Services in St. Paul
Concrete Driveways
A well-built concrete driveway can last 25 to 30 years with proper maintenance. We grade for correct drainage, install appropriate base thickness for St. Paul’s clay soils, and pour with proper reinforcement and control joints. Choose from broom finish, exposed aggregate, or stamped patterns to match your home.
Concrete Sidewalks
Concrete sidewalks improve curb appeal, safety, and accessibility. We handle everything from small residential paths to commercial walkways, using proper base preparation and control joints to prevent cracking.
Apron Repair
A sunken or cracked apron causes water to pool at your garage entrance and damages your foundation over time. We remove the failed section, address base problems, and install a new concrete apron that drains properly.
Concrete Patios
A concrete patio gives you a durable outdoor space for Minnesota’s short summers. We build patios designed for this climate, with proper drainage and reinforcement. Choose from standard, exposed aggregate, or stamped finishes.
Curbs & Gutters
Commercial properties and HOA common areas need proper curb and gutter systems to direct stormwater and define parking areas. St. Paul’s relatively flat terrain makes drainage planning critical. We install curb work that actually moves water where it needs to go instead of letting it pool against your building.
Catch Basin
When stormwater doesn’t drain properly, it pools on your parking lot surface and works its way into cracks, leading to potholes, heaving, and premature pavement failure. Catch basins solve that problem by channeling water into the storm drain system before it causes damage. We install catch basins for new construction in St. Paul and replace deteriorating ones that are no longer doing their job. If water sits on your lot after a rain, it’s time to address the drainage.
What You Should Know About Concrete in St. Paul
Clay Soils and Proper Preparation
St. Paul has significant clay content in the soil throughout most neighborhoods. Clay expands when wet, contracts when dry, and heaves during freeze-thaw cycles. This makes proper base preparation essential for concrete work. We remove unstable material, install adequate gravel base, and ensure proper compaction before pouring.
Permit Requirements
St. Paul requires a permit from the Department of Safety and Inspections for new concrete driveways, driveway replacements, and significant modifications. If your driveway enters onto a county road, you may also need a separate permit from Ramsey County. We handle the permit coordination as part of the project.
Neighborhoods We Serve
We work throughout St. Paul, including Highland Park, Macalester-Groveland, Summit Hill, Cathedral Hill, Como Park, Merriam Park, the East Side, and commercial properties along University Avenue and West Seventh Street.
