Services

Professional Services

From hot-mix asphalt and seal coating to crack filling, driveway approaches, and excavation — we handle the full job, residential or commercial, across Butte and Glenn Counties.

Road work / paving crew

Road Work

A road pavement structure is made of multiple layers of processed and compacted materials in different thicknesses — we build it the right way, from the base up.

Sealcoating and parking-line repainting

Seal Coating

Sealcoating is the process of applying a protective coating to asphalt-based pavements — it shields against UV, oil, water, and buys you another decade.

Cracked asphalt road needing repair

Crack Filling

Crack filling is an asphalt repair solution for non-working cracks — the right materials, applied properly, stop small cracks from becoming big problems.

Newly paved driveway approach

Driveway & Approaches

We pave a brand new driveway or refinish an existing one — distributing and compacting properly so edges hold up and water runs off the way it should.

Why Charles Brown

Four Reasons to Pick Us

33 Years on the Job

We’ve been paving Butte County since ’93. That’s longer than most of our local competition has been in business.

Paving + Excavation

Most paving cos can’t handle the dirt-work. We do both. One crew, one schedule, one invoice.

Free Written Estimates

Same-day response. We come out, measure, look at the base, and write you a number. No high-pressure sales.

Family Owned

The owner answers the phone. The owner reviews every estimate. The owner shows up on site. That’s how it’s worked since 1993.
