Our East Valley Services
The eastern valley requires a highly versatile paving contractor. The needs of a lakeside hotel are vastly different from a commercial trucking yard on the Coquihalla junction. We adapt our engineering to fit your specific property
Combating Extreme Weather and River Soil
Paving in the East Valley means dealing with two major geographic challenges: freezing mountain temperatures and soft river soil. In Hope, the ground freezes hard, which can cause shallow driveways to shatter during the winter thaw. We prevent this by building extra deep rock subgrades. Down in the flats of Agassiz and Kent, the soil is sandy and prone to shifting near the Fraser River. We use heavy duty compactors and base reinforcement so your asphalt stays perfectly level, no matter what the ground does underneath.

FAQ's
Q: Why does my gravel road in Silver Creek wash out every winter?
A: Without a sealed surface, heavy rain and snowmelt will always carry your gravel away. Paving the road allows us to pitch the surface and guide the water into ditches, permanently stopping the erosion.
Q: When is the best time to pave in BC?
A: Paving is best done between April and September when temperatures are consistently above 10°C for proper compaction.
Q: Why is drainage so critical in the East of the Fraser Valley?
A: The valley receives significant rainfall. A lack of proper grading can cause moisture to undermine the sub-base and lead to premature failure.
Q: Do you handle repairs or only new installs?
A: We do both. We provide full installations as well as patching, crack filling, and resurfacing for existing lots.
