Three generations of
paving done right

Calvin Ray Paving Contractor, Inc. has been laying asphalt across central North Carolina since 1949. That's not a typo. Our founder, Calvin Ray, came home from the Navy after World War II and got to work. He started paving driveways and parking lots with his own hands, building a reputation one job at a time across communities like Oxford, Franklinton, and the surrounding region.

Today, we are a third-generation family business. What Calvin Ray started over 75 years ago, his family continues with the same commitment he carried home from the service. We do not cut corners. We never have. That standard was set before most of our customers were born, and it still drives every job we take on.

Driveway paving costs in Raleigh vary based on size, shape, and site conditions. A standard two-car asphalt driveway typically starts in the low thousands. We provide free on-site estimates — call (919) 556-3813 to schedule.

In North Carolina, sealcoating is best done in spring or fall when temperatures are consistently above 50°F and rain is not forecast for 24 hours. Most driveways benefit from sealcoating every three to five years. Waiting too long allows UV oxidation and water infiltration to shorten your pavement's lifespan.

Gravel driveways cost less upfront and suit rural properties with long drives. Asphalt driveways are more durable, require less ongoing maintenance, and add more curb appeal and property value. Both require proper grading and drainage to perform well in North Carolina's clay-heavy soils.

Most commercial parking lots in North Carolina need restriping every one to two years. North Carolina's intense summer sun fades line striping faster than in cooler climates, and high-traffic lots may need annual attention to maintain safety and ADA compliance.
