Why Property Owners Choose Us
Why do DeLand property owners choose M&S Asphalt Paving?
People hire us for two reasons that come up again and again: the price is fair and the work holds up. Those are the exact words we hear in reviews. We keep pricing affordable because we run lean and do the labor ourselves, not because we cut the parts of the job you cannot see once it is done.
When Juan quotes two inches of asphalt, you get two inches. Not an inch and a half poured thin to stretch the material. When a surface needs a compacted base, we build the base instead of laying asphalt straight on dirt and hoping. That difference is why our jobs tend to last 10 to 15 years instead of failing in three.
We move fast on the front end too. Call for a quote and you will usually hear back the same day or the next, because the slowest part of most projects should not be getting someone to show up. Every job is backed by a one-year material warranty, and we walk you through what we are doing and why before we start.

What We Do
What asphalt services does M&S Asphalt Paving offer?
We handle the full life of an asphalt surface, from the first pour to the sealcoat that keeps it alive. Residential or commercial, we take on new installs, repairs, and ongoing maintenance. If you are not sure which service fits your situation, describe the problem when you call and we will tell you honestly what it needs.
Asphalt Paving
New installs for driveways, parking lots, private roads, and walkways. Proper base, full compaction, and two inches of asphalt, every time.
Driveway Paving
Residential driveways built to hold up to daily traffic, Florida rain, and the occasional boat or RV. We grade first so water runs off, not in.
Commercial Asphalt
Parking lots, HOA roads, and mill and overlay projects. We also handle striping and crack repair so a commercial lot looks and functions like it should.
Asphalt Sealcoating
Protection against Central Florida's UV, heat, & summer rains. A seal every few years adds years to the life of existing pavement at a fraction of repaving costs.
Our Process
How does M&S keep a driveway or parking lot from cracking early?
Most early asphalt failure in Florida traces back to two things: a weak base and asphalt laid too thin. We fix both before they become your problem. The sandy soil around DeLand and Volusia County moves with moisture and traffic more than people expect. A well-built base handles that. Skip it, and you are alligatoring within a couple of seasons.
This is not a special method. It is just the correct way asphalt is meant to be done. We do not skip steps to shave a few dollars off the estimate, and we explain each step as we go so you understand what is happening under your feet. Visit our asphalt paving page for more on how each install is built.
Clear and Grade
We clear the area and grade it so water runs off the finished surface instead of pooling. This step is where drainage problems start if skipped.
Build the Road Base
Crushed concrete or lime rock, compacted in lifts. This is the foundation. No asphalt goes down until the base is solid and level.
Lay and Compact Asphalt
Two full inches for standard residential driveways, more for heavier commercial traffic. Compacted with a roller for density, not just smoothness.
Walk-Through and Warranty
We walk the finished job with you, explain what was done and why, and leave you with a one-year material warranty. Questions after? Call Juan directly.
Protect What You Already Have
What does asphalt sealing and sealcoating actually do?
Sealcoating is protection, not paint. A fresh coat seals the surface against the weather that ages asphalt fastest in Central Florida: UV, heat, rain, and the oils that soften the binder over time. Left bare, asphalt oxidizes, turns gray, and starts to ravel and crack.
A seal every few years slows that whole process and adds years to the life of the pavement. Far cheaper than repaving. On commercial lots we often pair sealcoating with crack filling and fresh striping, because a client who does not want to spend on a full resurface can get a lot more life and a much cleaner look for a fraction of the cost.
We will tell you honestly if a surface is too far gone to seal and actually needs paving instead. We would rather lose the small job than sell you a coat of sealer over a driveway that is past saving.
Blocks What Breaks Asphalt Down
UV rays, rain infiltration, gasoline, and motor oil. All four attack the asphalt binder in Florida's climate. A sealed surface resists all of them.
Adds Years Between Repaves
Seal every 2 to 3 years and a healthy surface stays healthy far longer. We will tell you exactly where yours stands when we look at it.
A Fraction of the Cost of Repaving
Done on schedule, sealcoating pushes repaving back by years. The math is straightforward: a modest coat now versus a full install later.
We Tell You When It Will Not Work
Widespread alligator cracking means the base has failed. Sealing over it is money wasted. We say so upfront rather than take the job.
Where We Work
Where does M&S Asphalt Paving work?
We are based in DeLand and work across Volusia and Seminole counties and the north Orlando area. Being local matters more than it sounds. We know how the sandy soil around here behaves under a base, how the salt air near the coast speeds up oxidation, and how much afternoon rain a fresh sealcoat has to dodge in summer. When you hire a crew that drives these roads every day, you get someone who can be on site quickly and who is easy to reach afterward under the warranty.

How fast can you get a free estimate?
Usually the same day you call, or the next. Describe what you are dealing with: a new driveway, a tired parking lot, a patch of potholes, or a surface that just needs sealing. We give you a straight price and explain what the job includes so there are no surprises later.
