WHAT WE DO
Full-Service Paving & Hauling
for Waterloo & the Cedar Valley Region
COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL PAVING & OVERLAYS
Parking Lots, Industrial Yards & Residential Driveways
Waterloo's commercial base runs heavy — between the manufacturing facilities near the Cedar River industrial corridor, the retail centers along Ansborough Avenue, and the logistics operations that feed off US-20 and US-63, pavement here sees serious daily punishment. We design and install hot-mix asphalt surfaces built for that kind of load. Hot-mix overlay — where a fresh asphalt layer is applied over a properly prepared existing surface — is a cost-smart way to extend pavement life on aging lots without tearing everything out and starting from scratch.
ASPHALT MAINTENANCE & REPAIRS
Repairs, Seal Coating & Line Striping
Iowa winters don't spare Waterloo. The freeze-thaw cycle that hits Black Hawk County each year opens cracks fast, and water in an unsealed crack means a base failure by spring. We stop that process with hot rubberized crack sealing — a flexible, heat-applied filler that stays bonded through temperature swings instead of cracking out the way cold-pour products do. We follow that up with professional seal coating to lock in the surface and crisp line striping to keep your lot organized, safe, and ADA-compliant.
CHIP SEAL ROAD SURFACING
Rural Roads, Subdivisions & Farm Lanes
Prairie Road Builders — our chip seal division operating out of Hazleton, IA since 1970 — handles aggregate surface road work throughout the Waterloo region and across Black Hawk County. Chip seal is a time-tested method that bonds a liquid asphalt binder with crushed stone aggregate to create a durable, all-weather driving surface. It costs significantly less than full asphalt paving and is the right choice for rural roads, private drives, farm lanes, and light-traffic subdivision streets where you need solid performance without the full paving price tag.
MATERIAL HAULING & TRUCKING
Sand, Rock, Dirt & Ag Lime Delivery
Our heavy-haul fleet moves materials throughout the Cedar Valley — crushed rock, river sand, road gravel, fill dirt, and agricultural lime delivered to your job site when you need it. Waterloo's active construction market and the surrounding farmland in Black Hawk and Bremer counties keep our trucks busy, and we take pride in showing up on schedule. Whether you're prepping a building pad, topping a private road, or getting ag lime out to your fields before fieldwork starts, we'll handle the hauling.
LOCAL CONNECTION
Build for Waterloo
serving Black Hawk County & Cedar Valley
Waterloo is one of the most commercially active cities in Northeast Iowa, and the pavement that supports that activity takes a beating. The intersection of US-20 and US-63 puts Waterloo at a genuine crossroads — heavy truck traffic moving east-west across Iowa on 20, and north-south freight running up through the Cedar Valley on 63. Parking lots, loading docks, and industrial yards in that corridor see the kind of axle loads that require surfaces built with commercial-grade asphalt and a crew that understands what those loads do to pavement over time.
The John Deere Tractor Works on Westfield Avenue is one of the largest manufacturing facilities in Iowa, and the supply chain activity that surrounds it — vendor facilities, parts distributors, and logistics operations throughout Black Hawk County — drives steady demand for durable paving and reliable trucking. We've worked alongside that kind of heavy industrial activity long enough to know that schedules matter and downtime is expensive, so we plan our work to minimize disruption to your operation.
Beyond the city limits, Black Hawk and Bremer County farmland keeps our chip seal and aggregate hauling crews busy through the growing season. Whether it's a farm lane off Hwy 218, a rural road near Elk Run Heights, or a material delivery to a construction site along the Cedar River bottoms, we're familiar with this ground and know how to get the job done without surprises.
