Residential Asphalt Paving
We provide residential asphalt paving across Adelaide for homeowners who want a hard-wearing, smooth surface that lifts the look of the property. Most residential paving jobs we handle are driveways and home-access areas, but we also pave paths, parking pads, and rear-yard hardstands.
Every residential job starts with a site review. We look at levels, drainage, and how the area will be used day-to-day, then recommend the right thickness and finish. For larger properties, strata sites, or shared driveways, we plan staged works so access for residents stays clear during construction.
What residential paving covers:
If you’re specifically after a new home driveway, see our dedicated asphalt driveway page for more detail.
Commercial Asphalt Paving
We pave commercial sites across Adelaide, including car parks, hardstand areas, access roads, loading zones and shared driveways. Commercial paving carries heavier loads and sees more traffic than residential, so the base preparation, asphalt thickness and compaction approach are scaled to suit.
We work with property managers, businesses, civil clients, schools and strata groups. Where the site needs to stay operational during works, we plan staging so part of the area remains accessible. For example, paving half a car park at a time so tenants and customers aren’t locked out. Line marking can be coordinated as part of the works if required.
Common commercial paving applications:
Our team holds school clearance, a rail awareness ticket, and DPTI approval for works requiring those credentials.


Our Paving Equipment and Materials
We use commercial-grade paving equipment matched to the size of each job. For most works that means a paver to lay asphalt evenly to the specified thickness, rollers for compaction, and tipping trucks for delivery, supported by saw cutters, compactors and other site equipment as needed for preparation, edging and tie-ins.
For materials, we only use asphalt from our government-approved supplier. This gives us consistent mix quality and a clear paper trail on what’s gone into your site. The mix specification depends on the job. Residential driveways, commercial car parks and access roads each call for slightly different specs and thicknesses.
Active Asphalt is a member of the Civil Contractors Federation (CCF) and the Australian Asphalt Paving Association (AAPA), and we’re fully accredited with the Department of Human Services. Materials, methods and crew training all follow industry standards, so the surface we lay performs the way it’s meant to.
Request a Paving Quote
Got an asphalt paving project in mind? The quickest way to get a quote is to send through your suburb, the area you’re paving, and a rough size of the job. Most enquiries lead to a site visit so we can confirm levels, access and drainage in person before quoting.
Commercial sites: let us know how the area’s used day-to-day and whether staging is needed to keep access open during works. For residential, your suburb, the existing surface, any drainage concerns, and the boundary you want paved are usually enough to get started.
