Services
Asphalt Paving
Christensen Construction provides comprehensive asphalt paving services for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Our experienced crews utilize modern equipment to ensure precise installation, proper compaction, and long-lasting results. With company-owned production capabilities, we maintain strict quality control from material sourcing to final placement.
Milling Services
Our milling services restore damaged pavement surfaces by removing distressed layers for recycling. This process prepares existing roads for resurfacing while maintaining proper drainage and grade. We use precision equipment to achieve consistent depth removal and create a smooth base for new asphalt applications.
Base Rock Installation
Proper base rock installation ensures pavement longevity and stability. Our operators use advanced equipment to accurately place and compact aggregates, creating optimal load-bearing capacity. We carefully select materials based on project requirements to guarantee proper drainage and structural integrity for all paving projects.
Asphalt Sealing
Protect your investment with our professional asphalt sealing services. We apply high-quality sealants that prevent moisture penetration, reduce oxidation, and extend pavement lifespan. This cost-effective maintenance solution helps maintain surface appearance while preventing costly repairs from weather damage and UV degradation.
Crack Filling
Our crack filling services address pavement deterioration by sealing cracks with hot-poured rubberized sealant. This prevents water infiltration, vegetation growth, and further structural damage. We use durable materials that maintain flexibility to accommodate temperature changes while creating smooth, safe surfaces for vehicles and pedestrians.
