Algoma's lakeshore homes sit on tight lots with short, narrow driveways that see heavy freeze-thaw cycles and salt spray from winter storms off the bay. We're Green Bay Asphalt Paving, and we've been serving Algoma and the surrounding area since 2016 with honest, straightforward work on residential driveways, parking lots, and the roads that hold this community together.
Homeowners in Algoma call us because we understand the specific challenges here: the heavy red clay soil that holds water and heaves with deep frost, the plow damage that comes every March, and the tight access constraints on properties near the harbor where a standard paver and roller have to fit through narrow passages. We're local, fully insured, and we price every job fairly on site, without the high-pressure estimates or the fear-based pitch you'll get from out-of-state crews.
Asphalt Paving in Algoma (54201)
Algoma's housing stock is older and varied: modest cottages and farmhouses with narrow single-width driveways, small commercial lots near the harbor with limited turnaround space, and a few larger residential properties on the outskirts. What ties them together is the challenge of Northeast Wisconsin freeze-thaw cycles and the heavy red lake clay that dominates the subgrade here. Water that sits in the soil over winter expands as it freezes, heaving the driveway and creating the sunken aprons and edge cracking you see in spring. Add salt spray from the bay and the aggressive plowing that comes with lake-effect snow, and your asphalt takes a real beating.
We've been paving in Algoma and Greater Green Bay since 2016. We know the soil, the drainage patterns, and the lot constraints. We've patched potholes that opened in April, resurfaced driveways that were failing at the apron, and built new parking lots on sites where proper base prep and grading were the difference between a surface that lasts and one that fails in five years. We measure every job on site, specify the base and thickness in writing, and stand behind the work.

How a Job Works in Algoma
You call us at (920) 536-4534 or request a free estimate online. We come out to your property, walk the site, measure what needs to be done, and talk through your options. If you have an older driveway with a few patches and some surface cracking, we'll be honest about whether resurfacing makes sense or whether you're better off with a full replacement. We don't sell fear, and we don't oversell the scope.
Once you approve the estimate, our team schedules the work around your calendar and the weather. We handle the details: checking with Algoma's building department if your job involves the apron, curb, or drainage changes (permits vary by municipality, and we help you navigate them). We call Wisconsin 811 before any excavation. On tight Algoma lots, we manage equipment access carefully, and we coordinate with neighbors if a shared driveway or property line is involved. We show up on time, do the work to spec, and clean up after ourselves.
When we're done, we walk the site with you, answer your questions, and make sure you know what to expect as the asphalt cures. New asphalt should not be sealed for the first six to twelve months while it hardens, and we'll tell you that straight.
Driveway paving in Algoma typically runs from $6 per square foot for new installation, depending on the base condition, thickness, and site access. A resurfacing or overlay on an existing driveway with a sound base starts around $4 per square foot. Repair work like pothole patching or localized patching starts at $450 for a small job. Parking lot paving and repair pricing depends on the square footage and condition, and we provide free commercial estimates. The real cost drivers are the square footage, the condition of the base (whether we're patching an existing surface or removing and replacing it), the thickness we specify, and how easy the site is to access with a paver and a roller. We'll give you a written estimate with tonnage and thickness specs so you know exactly what you're paying for. Call us at (920) 536-4534 for a free on-site estimate, or request one online.
