See Finance OptionsErickson Asphalt & Concrete has been serving Woodbury and Washington County as a trusted paving contractor for over 35 years. More than 500 verified Google reviews at a 4.8 rating reflect what our work looks like in practice. We understand the heavy clay soils here, the rolling terrain that creates drainage challenges, and what it takes to build pavement that holds up through Minnesota winters.
Woodbury is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in the east metro, and its pavement spans a wide range of ages. Driveways and parking lots installed during the city’s major buildout in the 1990s and early 2000s are now reaching the end of their service life. When cracking has spread across the surface and sealcoating is no longer holding things together, the pavement needs more than maintenance.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Asphalt Services in Woodbury
Driveway Paving
Woodbury has a wide span of driveway ages, from surfaces installed during the 1990s growth boom to newer driveways in developments around Dancing Waters and East Pointe. When cracking has spread and the surface has started to settle or lose its drainage slope, replacement is the right move. We handle complete driveway tear-outs and installations, with proper grading, base preparation, and compaction on Woodbury’s clay-heavy ground. Every residential driveway comes with our industry-leading warranty.
Driveway Sealcoating
Sealcoating is the most cost-effective maintenance you can do for your asphalt. It blocks UV damage, keeps water out of cracks, and resists oil and chemical stains. For Woodbury driveways, we recommend sealcoating every two to three years to stay ahead of the freeze-thaw cycles that Minnesota winters drive. We handle driveway sealcoating and coordinate striping for commercial lots once the sealer has cured.
Apron Repair
A sunken apron creates a gap at the garage entrance where water pools and works under the slab. That gap also becomes an ice hazard every winter, a real concern on Woodbury’s many sloped and rolling lots. We remove the failed section, address the base problem that caused it, often related to the clay soil holding moisture, and install a proper repair that drains correctly.
Commercial Paving
Woodbury has heavy commercial paving demand across its retail centers, office parks, and medical campuses, from the Tamarack Village and Woodbury Lakes areas to the corporate corridors near I-494. We handle parking lot construction, overlays, and full reconstruction, working around your operations to minimize disruption. Our crews have experience with the scale and scheduling demands of commercial sites throughout the east metro.
Commercial Sealcoating
For property managers and business owners, parking lot sealcoating extends pavement life and improves appearance at a fraction of replacement cost. We phase larger projects to maintain access for tenants and customers, and we coordinate striping after the sealer cures. Woodbury’s busy retail and office lots benefit from a maintenance schedule that protects the asphalt investment.
Asphalt Repair
Potholes and alligator cracking get worse with every freeze-thaw cycle, and Woodbury’s clay soils make frost movement especially hard on pavement. Our infrared patching process creates seamless repairs by heating the existing asphalt and blending in new material. For larger problem areas, we offer mill-and-patch and section replacement that addresses the failure rather than just covering it.
Why Base Work Matters in Woodbury
Woodbury sits on heavy clay soils across gently rolling terrain, which is exactly the combination that makes drainage and base prep critical. Clay holds water, expands when it freezes, and contracts when it dries out, and on a sloped lot that movement is compounded by water running toward and under the pavement edge. That movement is what causes asphalt to crack and settle, and it starts below the surface.
Proper base preparation means excavating to stable soil, compacting thoroughly, and building the right gravel depth before asphalt goes down, with grading that moves water away from the pavement. Skip that step, and good asphalt still fails in a few seasons. We do not skip it.
Permits and Regulations
Woodbury requires a right-of-way permit for any work in city-owned right-of-way, including installing or repairing commercial driveway aprons and any obstruction of the right-of-way. Most residential driveway replacements on the existing footprint do not require a building permit, but new construction and grading work may require a grading permit from the Engineering Division. Before any digging, the City’s permit guidance directs all excavation through a Gopher State One Call request at 811 for utility locates. We determine what is needed for your specific project and handle the coordination as part of our project management.
Areas We Serve
We work throughout Woodbury, including established neighborhoods off Valley Creek Road and Bailey Road, newer developments around Eagle Valley, Stonemill Farms, and Dancing Waters, and commercial properties along Tamarack Road, Radio Drive, and the I-494 and I-94 corridors.
