Commercial Properties We Service in Sterling Heights

We build pavement for commercial sites that need to stay open, drain correctly, and hold up under traffic. In Macomb, the right paving plan depends on how each property moves trucks, customers, tenants, and public traffic across the lot.

  • Retail Centers & Plazas, where clear drive lanes, ADA access, and stable parking areas keep customer flow moving and reduce liability at entrances.
  • Industrial Parks & Warehouses, where truck routes, loading zones, and turning movements demand a surface built for weight and repeated stress.
  • HOAs & Multi-Family Complexes, where pavement has to handle resident traffic, guest parking, and drainage without creating trip hazards or early failure.
  • Municipal & Institutional Facilities, where schools, civic buildings, and public lots need durable pavement that supports access, safety, and long service life.

Built for Michigan Weather: Our Sterling Heights Asphalt Paving Standards

Our Asphalt Paving lasts longer in Sterling Heights because we fix the parts that fail first. We move water off the lot, rebuild weak base sections before they turn soft, and place pavement that can handle Michigan freeze-thaw cycles without opening up early cracks. That approach keeps property managers from paying twice for the same area, since the work protects the structure instead of just covering it.

  • Drainage first: We shape the lot so water leaves fast instead of soaking into joints, edges, and low spots. That cuts down on base damage and keeps small surface issues from turning into bigger repairs.
  • Base prep: We do not pave over weak support and hope it holds. We correct sub-base problems before placement, which gives the mat a stable foundation and reduces settlement, rutting, and edge failure later on.
  • Freeze-thaw mix: We use paving built for local temperature swings, so the surface can flex through winter stress without breaking apart early. That means fewer patch calls and less money spent on reactive work.

Common Asphalt Paving Projects We Handle in Sterling Heights

  • Retail resurfacing near Hall Road and Van Dyke: Property managers usually call after the wheel paths polish out, turning lanes start raveling, and winter salt has chewed at the edges by the storefronts. We mill the failed surface, check the base at entrances and cart routes, then place new pavement at the right thickness so daily traffic stops breaking the lot down a season later.
  • Industrial yard rebuilds off Mound Road: Forklifts, box trucks, and trailer swings punish weak pavement fast. We open up soft sections, repair the base where it has lost support, and reset the grade so water leaves the yard instead of sitting in low spots. That keeps heavy traffic from crushing thin spots and turning them into full-depth failures.
  • ADA and access updates near Dodge Park: Older commercial sites often need ramps corrected, cross slopes tightened up, and drive aisles reworked so access stays usable during inspections and day-to-day traffic. We rebuild those areas with proper pitch, tie them back into sound pavement cleanly, and make sure the surface supports safe entry without creating new settlement points.

D&J did a great job on our facility parking lot when we were in need of some asphalt catch basin repairs. They were professional, accommodating to our traffic needs, quick and thorough with the repairs, and back promptly after a week to retrieve their barriers. Their quote process was easy, and their pricing was incredibly reasonable for the work done. We are very pleased with D&J and recommend them highly.

D&J Contracting is a fantastic vendor. I manage a very large portfolio of retail stores and they are in my top 1% of all vendors. I give them my MOST enthusiastic recommendation. They care, they provide the best quality and customer service out there. Always go above and beyond and even take on special projects that are outside their main scope of work when I'm in a pinch. No job is too big or too small for them!

Nothings but professionalism, everything done as requested and on time.
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.

D&J was one of several companies I contacted for a quote to pave my 100’ driveway in May/June of 2021. They delivered a competitive quote, and I was further impressed by their professionalism and quick correspondence. After I hired D&J for the job, they came out to my residence within two weeks and paved my driveway in a single day. The driveway looks fantastic! The crew who paved it was friendly and quick-working, and the driveway is perfectly flat and slopes toward the road so there is no significant puddling (the attached photo is moments after a hard rain). It has been about four months since installation, and the driveway still looks impeccable. I was also contacted by D&J after the work was completed to ensure I was completely satisfied. I’ve had the misfortune of dealing with several subpar contractors in the construction industry in the recent past—but D&J is an exception to the rule. They were competitive, responsive, professional, and focused on quality and customer satisfaction. I was left very impressed. I have some future site work planned for my property, and I will absolutely be contacting D&J again.

Our 3-Step Asphalt Paving Process for Sterling Heights

  1. On-Site Evaluation We walk the property, check drainage, base condition, and traffic flow, then turn that into a clear estimate tied to the work the pavement actually needs.
  2. Permitting and Logistics We handle permits, utility locates, staging, and access planning before crews mobilize so your team is not stuck managing avoidable delays.
  3. Execution and Cleanup Our crew mills, repairs, or places the new surface, then restores the site and clears debris so the lot can reopen with less disruption.

Sterling Heights Permits & Codes Handled For You

We handle the paperwork before crews mobilize, so the project does not land on your desk. Our team works with the Sterling Heights Building Department, pulls the required Dumpster and ROW permits through the city application process, and coordinates MissDig before any excavation starts. That keeps utility marks in place, reduces preventable delays, and lets you stay focused on the property while we manage the paving side of the job.

Frequently Asked Questions about Asphalt Paving in Sterling Heights


When is the best time to schedule paving?

Late spring through early fall gives us the best working window because the base dries out and compaction holds. That timing cuts down on weather delays and keeps the job from turning into repeat work later.

How do you keep our business open during the project?

We phase the lot so customers and trucks still have access while we work. On a commercial site in Sterling Heights, that usually means sectioning off one area at a time, keeping drive lanes clear, and scheduling tie-ins so disruption stays short.

How do you prevent winter weather damage?

We start by fixing drainage and weak base areas, since standing water causes most cold-weather failures. After that, proper thickness and compaction help the pavement shed freeze-thaw stress instead of opening up at the edges and seams.
