Broomfield sits on the same expansive clay that moves under every driveway across the Denver metro, and your subdivision-era pavement is feeling it. Driveways laid in the 1990s and 2000s are now aging into the freeze-thaw crossings, pothole season, and spring heave that define paving life on the Front Range, and when cracks open or the apron drops, you need a local crew who understands the soil and the seasonal rhythm.
Denver Asphalt Paving has served Broomfield and the surrounding areas since 2012. We know the clay base under 80020, the way snowmelt moves through these lots, and why a driveway that looks solid in July can heave in March. When your pavement needs repair, resurfacing, or replacement, we show up with written estimates, tonnage specs, and the honesty to tell you whether a patch will hold or whether the money belongs in a full resurface.
Asphalt Paving in Broomfield (80020)
Broomfield forms its own county between Boulder and Denver, and the driveways here sit on the same bentonite and montmorillonite clay that swells with spring snowmelt and shrinks as the Front Range dries out. The ground moves under your slab whether the thermometer is rising or falling, and a hundred freeze-thaw crossings a year open potholes and crack seams that were sealed tight last fall. Add in a mile of elevation that loads your pavement with roughly a quarter more ultraviolet than sea-level asphalt sees, and the binder greys out and goes brittle years before it should. Narrow lots and tight setbacks from the street mean limited access for a paver and a roller, and the apron where your driveway meets the curb is where water pools and damage starts.
We have been paving driveways, parking lots, and private roads across the Denver area for over a decade. We understand the clay, the seasonal movement, and the base preparation that keeps a driveway from heaving or cracking. Our crews are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage, and we bring written estimates and tonnage specs to every job so you know exactly what you are paying for.

How a Job Works in Broomfield
We start with a free on-site visit to your property. We measure your driveway or lot, look at the existing pavement and the base underneath, check drainage and grade, and talk through what has failed and why. We ask about your timeline, your budget, and whether you have an HOA that governs driveway materials or extensions. We give you a written estimate with square footage, tonnage, thickness, and a clear price before we schedule any work.
On the day of the job, our crew arrives with a compactor, a paver, and a roller. We remove or mill the failed pavement if that is what the estimate calls for, we prepare and compact the base to handle the clay movement underneath, and we lay hot mix asphalt at the thickness and density your driveway or lot needs. If your apron is sunken or if water is pooling against your garage, we grade and slope it to drain. Tight lot access in Broomfield subdivisions means we plan equipment placement carefully and coordinate with neighbors if needed.
When the work is done, we clean up debris, sweep the site, and walk through the finished job with you. You will have a clean driveway or lot, and we will leave your property the way we found it except for the new pavement.
Driveway paving in Broomfield typically runs from $6 per square foot for a new installation, and resurfacing or overlay starts at $4 per square foot, depending on the square footage, the base condition, and the thickness we need to handle the clay underneath. A small repair or pothole patch starts at $450. A full driveway replacement or milling and removal runs from $7 per square foot or $1,500 and up, depending on what the site requires. Parking lot work is quoted on-site and varies widely by size and condition. The key cost factors are always the same: how many square feet, what is the base like, how deep do we need to go, and what is the site access like. We give you a written estimate with all of that spelled out. Call us at (720) 674-7204 for a free estimate, or tell us about your property and we will walk you through what it will cost.
