Erickson Asphalt has been paving driveways and maintaining parking lots across Sauk Rapids for over 35 years. We know this city from the established neighborhoods along the Mississippi River to the growing commercial areas near Highway 10 and Benton Drive.
Sauk Rapids sits at the edge of the St. Cloud metro, where suburban development meets Central Minnesota. The city has a range of properties, from older homes near downtown with driveways that have weathered decades of harsh winters to newer construction in the outlying areas. Commercial corridors along 2nd Street and Benton Drive need parking lot maintenance that stands up to traffic and freeze-thaw cycles.
Whether you need a driveway replacement near Lions Park, sealcoating for a property off 15th Avenue, or parking lot repairs for a business along Benton Drive, we handle it. And we put the Erickson Asphalt name on every job.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Asphalt Services in Sauk Rapids
Driveway Paving
When cracks spread, settling becomes visible, and sealcoating can no longer restore the surface, it is time for a new installation. We handle complete tear-outs with proper grading, base preparation, and compaction. Every residential driveway comes with our industry-leading warranty.
Driveway Sealcoating
Sealcoating blocks UV damage, prevents water infiltration, and resists oil and chemical stains. For Sauk Rapids driveways, we recommend sealing every two to three years to maximize pavement life.
Apron Repair
A sunken apron lets water collect at your garage entrance, accelerating damage to your foundation. Our apron repair service addresses the underlying cause with a proper fix, not just a surface patch.
Commercial Paving
Sauk Rapids has steady commercial activity along Highway 10 and Benton Drive. We handle parking lot construction, overlays, and reconstruction for retail centers, restaurants, and business properties. Our crews work around your operations to minimize disruption.
Commercial Sealcoating
For property managers and business owners, parking lot sealcoating extends pavement life at a fraction of replacement cost. We phase larger projects to maintain access and coordinate striping after the sealer cures.
Asphalt Repair
Potholes and cracking get worse every freeze-thaw cycle. Our infrared patching creates seamless repairs by heating existing asphalt and blending in new material. For larger problem areas, we offer mill-and-patch and section replacement.


What You Should Know About Paving in Sauk Rapids
Central Minnesota Soils
Sauk Rapids sits along the Mississippi River, with soils that vary from sandy deposits near the water to heavier glacial till in other areas. Sandy soils drain well but can shift if not properly compacted. Clay content increases the risk of frost heave. We assess conditions on every project and build the appropriate base for long-term performance.
Permit Requirements
In Sauk Rapids, sidewalks and driveways that are not part of an accessible route are generally exempt from permit requirements. However, new driveway installations or significant modifications may require a permit from the City of Sauk Rapids Building Department. If your driveway connects to a county road, you may also need a permit from Benton County. Routine maintenance like sealcoating does not require a permit. We determine what is needed and handle the coordination.
Areas We Serve
We work throughout Sauk Rapids, including neighborhoods near Lions Park and Mayhew Lake, the established areas along the Mississippi River, residential developments off 15th Avenue and Benton Drive, and commercial properties along Highway 10 and 2nd Street. Our Princeton headquarters is just a short drive away, making Sauk Rapids a natural part of our service area.
Our Recent Projects in Sauk Rapids
Independent Lifestyles
We did a full parking lot reconstruction for Independent Lifestyles, a nonprofit organization in Sauk Rapids, MN. The scope covered 13,000 sq ft of full-depth removal and replacement, 50 linear feet of curb replacement, and minor ADA concrete corrections.
The client chose full-depth replacement over a mill and overlay to eliminate recurring issues from a deteriorating base. That approach also let us correct drainage throughout the lot and address curb and concrete repairs in the same project. The finished lot was striped to spec with improved traffic flow and accessibility.
