Shoreview's Trusted Paving Contractor

Erickson Asphalt has been paving driveways and maintaining parking lots across Shoreview for over 35 years. We know this city from the lakeside properties around Snail Lake to the established neighborhoods near Shoreview Community Center.

Shoreview is a mature suburb with a mix of mid-century homes, newer construction, and commercial development along Highway 96 and Lexington Avenue. Many driveways in the original neighborhoods are 40 or 50 years old and well past their expected lifespan. Other properties have been updated but now need maintenance to protect those investments.

Whether you need a driveway replacement near Island Lake, sealcoating for a home off Hodgson Road, or commercial paving along Rice Street, we handle it with the same attention to detail we bring to every project.

Over 35 Years Serving the Metro

We have been paving in Shoreview and Ramsey County since the 1980s. That experience shows in how we approach projects here. We understand the local soil conditions and seasonal timing that works for this climate.

Glacial Till and Variable Drainage

Shoreview’s soils are typical of Ramsey County, with glacial till deposits that include a mix of clay, sand, and loam. Drainage varies by location. Properties near the lakes often have sandier soils with better drainage, while areas away from the water tend toward heavier clay content. Clay holds water, expands when frozen, and contracts when dry. We assess conditions on every project and build the base accordingly.

Permit Requirements

Shoreview requires a zoning permit for new driveways, driveway expansions, and significant modifications. You submit an application with site plans to the City of Shoreview for approval. Standard replacement on an existing footprint typically has simpler requirements. Routine sealcoating does not require a permit. We determine what is needed and handle the coordination as part of the project.
