Asphalt & Paving Services in Garland, TX
Garland has a large, active commercial and industrial base, and that means a lot of pavement to build and maintain. HI-TEK Paving supports Garland businesses, property managers, HOAs and homeowners with parking lot paving, asphalt repair, seal coating, parking lot striping and concrete paving.
We are a family-owned contractor based in Forney, just across Lake Ray Hubbard, and we have served the eastern Dallas suburbs since 2010. Owner Kevin Rowland started the business with a single striping machine, and that attention to detail still shows in every lot we lay out and every repair we complete.
Our process keeps Garland projects simple: we meet with you, assess the site, provide a clear estimate with no hidden costs, complete the work to spec while keeping the site safe, then walk through the finished job with you.
Garland, TX
About Garland, TX
Garland is one of the larger cities in Dallas County, located northeast of downtown Dallas with small portions reaching into Collin and Rockwall counties. Its eastern edge borders Lake Ray Hubbard, and I-30, I-635 and the President George Bush Turnpike all pass through or along the city, linking it to the rest of the metroplex.
The city has a strong manufacturing and distribution presence, along with established retail corridors and newer shopping at Firewheel Town Center in north Garland. Downtown Garland around the historic square has seen renewed investment, and neighborhoods range from mid-century homes in central Garland to newer subdivisions in the Firewheel area. Duck Creek and Rowlett Creek wind through the city toward the lake.
For paving, that variety means Garland needs heavy-duty industrial drives and yards, well-maintained retail lots, church and school parking, multi-family parking areas and residential driveway work. Much of the older pavement in central and south Garland has reached the stage where planned repair and resurfacing pay off.
Climate & Environmental Factors in Garland
Garland's pavement has to handle North Texas heat, intense spring storms and clay soil. Summer temperatures in the upper 90s and above 100°F bake large industrial and retail lots, oxidizing the asphalt binder and leading to raveling and cracking.
Like most of Dallas County, Garland sits on expansive Blackland Prairie clay. Wet periods swell the soil and dry periods shrink it, so pavement edges, joints and areas over utility trenches often crack and settle. Properties near Duck Creek, Rowlett Creek and the low areas toward Lake Ray Hubbard need careful attention to grading and drainage so storm water does not soak the base.
Hail and heavy downpours in spring, followed by long dry spells, are typical. Occasional hard freezes, such as the February 2021 winter storm, can widen existing cracks. Crack sealing, prompt repairs and a regular sealcoat schedule are the most effective protection for Garland pavement.

Common Pavement Problems in Garland
Garland's mix of industrial, retail and residential property creates some predictable pavement problems:
- Rutting and alligator cracking in truck routes, loading docks and yards at manufacturing and distribution sites.
- Potholes in older retail and office lots after spring storms. Our pothole repair rebuilds the failed area to full depth.
- Concrete joint failures and broken panels at dumpster pads and drive approaches, handled through concrete parking lot repair.
- Settlement over utility trenches and along curb lines.
- Faded striping, unclear traffic flow and worn accessible parking markings.
- Oxidized, gray asphalt that has not been sealcoated in years.
The earlier these problems are addressed, the more options you have. A lot that gets repairs and sealcoat now may avoid a full reconstruction later.

What Pavement Works Best for Garland Industrial and Commercial Sites?
For Garland industrial and commercial sites, the best pavement matches the loads. Truck routes, loading docks and dumpster pads usually perform best in thick concrete or heavy-duty asphalt over a strong base, while car parking areas can use standard asphalt sections. Good drainage is essential everywhere.
Designing for trucks
Heavy trucks turning and braking put far more stress on pavement than passenger cars. We design truck areas with a thicker, well-compacted base and pavement section, and we often recommend concrete at docks and pads where trucks sit and turn. Our road construction and concrete paving services cover private drives and heavy-duty areas.
Keeping retail lots attractive
Shoppers form an impression before they reach the door. For retail centers in Garland, a clean, black, well-striped lot makes a property look cared for. A typical cycle includes:
- Crack sealing to keep water out of the base.
- Full-depth patching of failed areas.
- Seal coating to protect and refresh the surface.
- Restriping with clear stalls, arrows, fire lanes and accessible spaces.
When to resurface
If your Garland lot has widespread surface cracking but the base is still solid, asphalt resurfacing can give you a new wearing surface without full reconstruction. We will core or probe suspect areas and explain what we find.
HOA and multi-family parking
Apartment communities and HOAs in Garland often need work done in phases so residents can still park. We plan sections, post notices and coordinate timing with management to limit disruption.
Serving all of Garland
We work throughout Garland, from the industrial areas near I-635 and the Bush Turnpike to downtown, Firewheel and neighborhoods near Lake Ray Hubbard, as well as neighboring Rowlett, Sachse and Richardson.
What a typical Garland project looks like
Most projects follow the same four steps. First, a consultation to understand your goals and timing. Second, a site assessment where we measure, check drainage and look at the base, followed by a clear estimate. Third, project execution, with the crew working to spec and keeping the site clean and safe. Fourth, a final review and handoff, where we walk the finished work with you. This simple structure keeps Garland property owners informed at every stage and avoids surprises.
