Services
Asphalt Paving
Our asphalt paving service creates durable surfaces for driveways, roads, and parking lots using high-quality materials. The process includes site preparation, sub-base grading, and precision asphalt laying with state-of-the-art equipment. Proper installation extends pavement lifespan to 15-25 years when maintained correctly. We focus on proper drainage and compaction to prevent premature deterioration while offering environmentally friendly solutions through recycled material usage.
Tar & Chip Paving
This cost-effective alternative to asphalt provides excellent traction for rural properties and low-traffic areas. The process involves applying hot liquid asphalt followed by stone chips to create a durable surface lasting 7-10 years. Ideal for acreages and secondary roads, it requires minimal maintenance beyond periodic sweeping and sealing. Our expertise ensures proper application that withstands Western Canada's climate while maintaining aesthetic appeal.
Seal Coating
Protect your asphalt investment with our professional seal coating service. Applying a protective layer prevents UV damage, oil penetration, and water infiltration that cause cracks and potholes. Recommended every 2-3 years, this maintenance solution extends pavement life by creating a waterproof barrier. Our commercial-grade sealant resists Alberta's extreme temperature fluctuations while restoring asphalt's dark, attractive appearance.
Crack Repair
Preventative crack repair stops minor damage from escalating into costly problems. Using rubberized hot pour filler, we create watertight seals that prevent moisture penetration and freeze-thaw cycle damage. Regular maintenance addresses cracks before they become potholes, maintaining surface integrity and safety. This service applies to both residential driveways and high-traffic commercial lots across Western Canada.
Driveway Installation
Complete driveway solutions from initial grading to final compaction, tailored to homeowner needs. Our process includes proper drainage planning, sub-base preparation, and asphalt application meeting municipal standards. Available in traditional asphalt or decorative chip seal options, driveways are built to withstand Canadian winters. We handle projects from small urban lots to large rural properties with minimal disruption to property owners.

We have been using Ram paving for our commercial parking lot for the past few seasons. Work done is some of the highest quality you will find. I would not hesitate recommending Ram for any job big or small.

Roy is great to work with. We think he gave us a fair deal on paving our drive way, and did it as efficiently as possible so we weren't in-convinced for more than a few days while he worked.

Really impressed with Roy's work. His crew was very professional, showed up on time, and were able to get my acreage paved before the frost hit. Give Roy a call if you have a paving project that needs doing.

For the past few years we have worked with Roy and his crew at Ram Paving, and we have always been very impressed with their professionalism and quality of work. Our repairs have always been in very high traffic areas and Roy always develops a plan describing what work will be preformed taking into consideration the least amount of disruption to our location. Very happy with Ram Paving Ltd.
