Asphalt Paving in Pleasant Grove, UT

Asphalt paving in Pleasant Grove means working around a lot of history and a lot of trees. Settled in 1850 and incorporated on January 18, 1855, the city was first called Battle Creek and later renamed for a nearby grove of cottonwoods. It is nicknamed Utah's City of Trees. Pleasant Grove slopes off the Mount Timpanogos bench at about 4,623 feet, and it had 37,726 residents in 2020.

Older neighborhoods

Much of Pleasant Grove is older housing on established streets. Driveways there have seen many winters, and the most common problems are alligator cracking, sunken areas and broken edges. When most of the surface has failed, we replace it on fresh road base. When the damage is limited, we patch and seal.

Trees and roots

Mature trees are part of the city's character, and their roots can lift and crack driveways. Repairing a root heave means cutting out the lifted section, addressing the root where it is safe to do so and rebuilding the base. If the root cannot be cut, we tell you the heave may return.

Climate

Pleasant Grove averages about 16.43 inches of precipitation a year, with cold winters and hot, dry summers. Its record high is 104 degrees. Sun oxidizes unsealed asphalt, and winter freeze-thaw opens cracks. Fall crack filling handles the winter side; a sealcoat every few summers handles the sun.

Strawberry Days and community lots

The city's Strawberry Days festival began on June 21, 1922, when strawberries were a major local crop. Church, school and business lots that fill up for the festival need firm pavement and stall lines people can actually see. We repair, overlay, sealcoat and restripe and schedule around events.

Permits

Curb cuts and approach changes belong to Pleasant Grove City, so the city signs off on those before we touch the street side.

What an estimate covers

We measure, check drainage, look for root damage and probe soft spots. Each piece of work is priced on its own, and when doing part of it now makes more sense, the bid shows that option too.
