Who We Are
Fifty Years On The Same Driveways
1976
Paving Since
J&W Asphalt started paving Twin Cities driveways in 1976 and has done it every season since. That length of run is uncommon in residential asphalt. Most contractors in this category do not make it past a decade, because the work is seasonal, the margins are thin, and the reputation is earned one driveway at a time.
- Paving residential driveways in the Twin Cities since 1976
- Residential, national builders, local builders, HOAs, and property management companies
- Same crews, same name, and same phone number under CARD ownership
- [CONFIRM: crew count, trucks, or driveways per season. One hard number carries more weight than three claims]
Fifty years is not a slogan. It is a start date.

Project Proof
The Work Speaks First
A properly installed asphalt driveway should last 20 years or more. Lifespan is decided before the surface is ever laid, by how the site is graded, how deep and how well the base is compacted, and how the edges are formed. Sealcoating and crack repair extend that life, but neither one can correct a base that was rushed. The driveways below are new J&W installations in the Twin Cities metro.
