Gerard Asphalt

Gerard Asphalt takes on asphalt work for homeowners and businesses in Southern Maine. Its coverage runs along the coast between Kittery and Freeport and reaches inland to the Sebago Lakes Region and Bridgton, taking in York and Cumberland counties. Biddeford, Saco, Kennebunk, Scarborough, South Portland and Portland are among the communities named on its website. The business is family owned and has been operating since 2013.

New paving makes up much of the work, including residential driveways, private roads, commercial parking lots and other business surfaces that carry daily traffic. Alongside installation, the company performs milling, which strips away chosen layers of worn pavement ahead of new asphalt, and reclaiming, which reprocesses the old pavement into a stable base for resurfacing or full reconstruction. It also applies tar and chip, a surface of asphalt binder topped with stone that leaves a textured finish on some private roads and driveways, and it sealcoats existing driveways and lots to protect them from wear and exposure. Pavement marking also appears among its services.

On the commercial side, the company lists municipalities, industrial facilities, HOAs and condominium associations, and businesses and other commercial property owners among its customers. Its website points to residential driveway work in towns such as Windham and Scarborough and to commercial lots in Biddeford and Portland.

Gerard Asphalt says it completes projects with its own equipment, materials and crews instead of hiring subcontractors, and it maintains its own paving fleet. Before any work begins, customers receive a detailed written proposal setting out the price, timeline, materials and scope of work. Estimates are free, and Darren Gerard is the contact listed on the company's website.
