We’ve been paving driveways, repairing parking lots, and maintaining asphalt across Maple Grove for over 35 years. That’s long enough to know this city’s neighborhoods, its soil, and what it takes to build pavement that actually holds up here.
The established neighborhoods south of Elm Creek Boulevard — places like Nottingham, Weaver Lake Timbres, and the areas around Fish Lake — are full of homes built in the 1980s and early ’90s. Those driveways are now 35 to 40+ years old, and most are well past their expected lifespan. We also work in Maple Grove’s newer developments to the northwest, including Rush Hollow, Evanswood, and the Hamlets of Rush Creek, where new construction often needs first-time driveway paving to finish out the property.
Whether your driveway is older than your roof or your house is still under construction, we’ve handled both — and everything in between.
What Our Customers Are Saying
Asphalt Services in Maple Grove
Driveway Paving
Your driveway is the first thing people see when they pull up to your home. We handle new driveway installations and complete replacements with proper grading, base preparation, and a smooth finish built to handle Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles. Every driveway we install comes with our 10-year warranty.
Driveway Sealcoating
Your driveway takes a beating from Maple Grove’s freeze-thaw cycles, road salt, and summer UV. Driveway sealcoating blocks moisture, resists chemical damage, and restores that fresh, dark finish. For most driveways here, sealing every two to three years is the most cost-effective way to push back a full replacement.
Apron Repair
A sinking driveway apron creates trip hazards, damages vehicles, and can compromise your garage foundation. This is an especially common issue in Maple Grove due to the local soil conditions. We have a proven repair process that addresses the root cause, not just the surface.
Commercial Paving
From new parking lot construction and asphalt overlays to full-depth replacement, we deliver commercial paving that holds up to daily traffic. Our crews work efficiently and communicate clearly so your project stays on schedule with minimal disruption to your business.
Commercial Sealcoating
For property managers and business owners across Maple Grove, parking lot sealcoating is the easiest way to extend the life of your pavement and reduce long-term maintenance costs. We schedule work in phases so your tenants and customers always have access, and coordinate with striping once the sealer cures.
Asphalt Repair
Potholes, cracks, and surface failures don’t fix themselves. Our infrared patching process lets us blend new asphalt with existing pavement seamlessly, saving you thousands compared to full-section replacement. We also handle mill-and-patch, skin patching, and full remove-and-replace repairs.
Why Base Work Matters in Maple Grove
Clay-heavy soil expands when it absorbs water and shrinks when it dries out. In Maple Grove's climate, with sustained freezing through winter and heavy spring snowmelt, that cycle never stops. It's why driveways settle unevenly, aprons sink away from garage floors, and parking lots develop alligator cracking well before they should.
The fix isn't complicated, but it has to be done right. Proper base preparation (removing unstable material, compacting the subgrade, and building up an adequate gravel base) is what determines whether your pavement lasts 10 years or 25. We see plenty of driveways around here where someone skimped on the base to save a few hundred dollars and ended up paying for a full replacement years earlier than necessary.
That's why we look at every job in person before we give you a number. What's underneath your property matters, and you can't assess that from a truck window.
Permits and Regulations
Maple Grove doesn’t require a permit for a standard driveway repave or replacement, as long as you’re keeping the same footprint. Sealcoating doesn’t require one either. But there are regulations under the Maple Grove Zoning Ordinance you should know about.
Driveways must be at least 5 feet from the side yard property line and 25 feet from any intersecting street. If you’re thinking about widening your driveway or adding a parking pad, those setbacks determine what’s possible on your lot. All off-street areas used for driving, loading, and parking must be paved to city specifications, with limited exceptions.
Commercial projects involving parking lot construction, expansion, or major reconstruction may trigger additional review through the city’s Community and Economic Development Department (763-494-6040), including drainage, stormwater, and ADA compliance.
When you work with Erickson, we handle the regulatory side for you. We know what Maple Grove requires and make sure your project is compliant before we start work.
