Asphalt Paving & Concrete Projects in New Haven Neighborhoods
Our gallery shows recent work near Ecorse Rd, the Fairlane district, and the Miller Road corridor, where traffic loading, drainage fall, and winter plow wear decide how long pavement stays in service. The map also ties back to our owner's 30-year construction background, with each project added after we review the base, runoff path, and repair history on site.

From Our Founders
A parking lot is only as good as the base-layers beneath it. At D&J Contracting, we refuse to 'pave over' existing site problems. We engineer every project to withstand the Michigan freeze-thaw cycle by prioritizing subbase integrity and precise drainage pitch. When you build on a correct foundation, your asset lasts decades, not just seasons.

Reviews from New Haven Property Managers
Commercial clients in New Haven judge our work by how the pavement holds under traffic, water, and freeze-thaw cycles. After 38 years in Macomb, their reviews keep coming back to the same point: base preparation and compaction decide whether asphalt stays serviceable or starts failing early.
Thank you again for a job well done.
Payment terms are outstanding in the last four years payments have always been on time.
The staff at D and J are great and very helpful if there is any issues.
My project involved multiple services and pulling permits and I had several quotes and most companies don't offer multiple services or don't pull permits and you have to do it yourself.
D & J is the only company who takes care of city permits and takes care of all the services you need from start to finish. They also update you on everything, keep you in a loop and confirms everything with you.
In our specific case we needed a curb cut, driveway leveled and parking lot sealed and coated so low sports vehicles can safely pull in without scraping the bottom and D & J did it so well you can pull in even on skateboard now.
Highly recommend D & J, top quality, smooth process.
Paving & Concrete Contractors Serving New Haven
We stage work near Gratiot Avenue and the I-94 corridor so trucks can move in, out, and back without blocking customer access. On New Haven lots, we sequence milling, paving, and compaction in smaller sections, then reopen finished areas before shifting equipment. That keeps disruption down for businesses while we correct base issues, maintain proper thickness, and leave a surface built for daily traffic.

New Haven Commercial Pavement Repair & Maintenance
Base Holds Value
We build the lot from the ground up, because a tight subgrade and controlled drainage keep water out of the pavement structure and stop small defects from turning into full-depth repairs in New Haven.
- Dense subgrade compaction removes soft pockets before traffic loads them, which keeps wheel paths from rutting and saves owners from paying for early milling or repaving.
- Proper drainage control moves meltwater and storm runoff away from joints, edges, and low spots, which limits base saturation and cuts down on freeze-thaw damage that drives repair costs up fast.
- Correct mat placement only works after the foundation is right, because asphalt laid over a weak base will crack, settle, and fail long before its service life should end.

ABOUT US
38+ Years of Michigan Experience
Michigan's unique climate presents specific challenges for asphalt paving. With extreme temperature fluctuations, harsh winters, and freeze-thaw cycles, your pavement needs to be built to last.
Michigan weather works on pavement from the bottom up. In New Haven, meltwater finds open joints, cracked edges, and low spots, then drops into the base where it sits until a cold night turns it into frost heave. That movement breaks the support before the surface looks bad. Once the base starts pumping, the asphalt loses shape fast under truck traffic and turning loads.
We stop that by building the section to shed water before it gets trapped. That means correcting grade, tightening subgrade areas that hold moisture, and placing enough compacted base to keep the mat supported through freeze-thaw swings. On sites near Gratiot Avenue and 26 Mile Road, we pay close attention to tie-ins and curb lines because those are usually the first places water gets in. If the foundation stays dry and stable, the pavement stays serviceable longer.
New Haven Paving Permits & Safety Compliance
- Start with the New Haven website so your paving scope follows the city's current review path before you mobilize crews or schedule work.
- Check Paving, Drainage, & ROW Permits early, since curb cuts, basin work, and right of way changes can stall a lot after layout if they are not cleared first.
- Use MissDig before excavation so underground utilities get marked before saw cutting, base removal, or trenching starts.
