Prescott Asphalt is a family-owned asphalt paving company serving Prescott, Prescott Valley, and communities across Yavapai County. We install asphalt driveways and parking lots and provide resurfacing, sealcoating, striping, pothole repair, crack sealing, milling, and full asphalt removal. Our crews work for homeowners, HOAs, commercial property owners, and municipal projects. Every project is planned around the traffic, drainage, soil, and pavement condition at the site.
At roughly 5,400 feet in the Bradshaw Mountains, Prescott pavement faces winter freeze-thaw cycles, intense UV exposure, monsoon runoff, and decomposed granite soils. Those conditions make drainage correction, base preparation, mix design, and compaction central to long-term performance. We are a licensed asphalt contractor, fully insured and bonded, and our crews are trained in mix design and compaction standards suited to work at altitude. We test the subgrade, address drainage first, and build each asphalt section for the loads it needs to carry.
Our work includes residential driveways in the Country Club neighborhood, commercial lots off Highway 69, and municipal paving built to Yavapai County road standards. We bring that local experience to projects in downtown Prescott, Williamson Valley, Chino Valley, and Dewey-Humboldt.
Quality starts below the wearing surface. We test the subgrade, correct drainage, compact the aggregate base, and match the asphalt section to the traffic it will carry. A typical residential installation uses 2 to 4 inches of compacted asphalt over 4 to 6 inches of aggregate base, with adjustments for the soil conditions on the property.
We recommend work according to what is actually failing. A sound base may need milling and an overlay, while base-level failure calls for full removal and reconstruction; milling can remove the top 1 to 3 inches without unnecessarily raising the finished surface. After walking the site, we provide a free, itemized estimate so the scope and site conditions are clear before work begins.
A residential driveway, HOA roadway, commercial parking lot, and municipal surface each have different loading, access, drainage, and scheduling needs. We tailor the base depth and compaction method to the property and coordinate permitting when a project requires review by the City of Prescott or Yavapai County. Full installations and overlays are generally scheduled from late spring through early fall, while cold mix gives us a practical option for winter patching and emergency repairs.
Prescott had a population of roughly 45,827 in the 2020 Census, and continued growth across Yavapai County is adding more driveways, parking lots, ranch access roads, and public surfaces. Our vision is to support that growth with pavement planned for this region's decomposed granite soils, elevation-driven freeze-thaw cycles, drainage patterns, and traffic demands.
Our mission is to build asphalt surfaces meant to last through Prescott winters, not simply look good at the final walkthrough. We follow OSHA jobsite safety protocols, use Arizona Department of Transportation-aligned material standards for work touching public rights-of-way, and perform internal compaction and mix-quality checks. We also encourage sealcoating every 2 to 3 years and prompt crack filling because proper maintenance helps a typical 15- to 20-year driveway move toward the 20- to 30-year range possible for low-traffic residential asphalt under ideal conditions.
