Why Choose B&C Blacktop for Your Path Paving Project

  • We Access Difficult Areas: We own specialized compact equipment, the kind most paving companies don’t have or don’t want to deal with. That means we can complete leisure path paving jobs in spots where traditional trucks simply can’t go, whether due to overhead wires, tight topography, or restricted site access.
  • We Own Our Equipment: Unlike contractors who rent specialty equipment and pass those costs on to you, we own what we need to do the job. That means you get better pricing and the confidence of working with crews who use this equipment on a regular basis.
  • Accurate Site Evaluation: We use aerial imagery and measurement tools to assess your site before we start, so there are no surprises when it comes time to quote or build.
  • Honest, Transparent Work: Every estimate is backed by material tickets so you know exactly what was installed. If you’re paying for a specific asphalt thickness, that’s precisely what you get.
  • Proven Local Experience: We’ve paved cart paths, walking paths, and leisure trails for golf courses, Columbus city parks, neighborhood communities, and municipalities across Central Ohio since 1993.
“We’re the least invasive company available for leisure path and cart path paving in Columbus and Central Ohio. Our specialized equipment allows us to access hard-to-reach areas without damaging existing landscaping.” –Bryan Myers, Owner

Frequently Asked Questions About Bike Path Paving and Leisure Trails

What types of paths do you pave?

We pave a wide range of path types, including walking and jogging paths in addition to leisure trails (the official term used by many municipalities and government entities for multi-use recreational paths). We also handle asphalt bike path paving and golf cart path paving in Columbus. If it’s a narrow or hard-to-access paved surface, we have the experience and equipment to handle it.

Our path paving clients include golf courses, neighborhood HOAs, residential communities, Columbus city parks, metro parks, and municipal governments, along with schools and athletic facilities. We work with anyone in Central Ohio who needs a durable paved path that requires care and precision to build.

For many leisure path and cart path projects, standard asphalt trucks–which can weigh up to 80,000 pounds and stretch 80 feet long–physically cannot access the site. Overhead wires, ditches, narrow entry points, and fragile landscaping all create barriers. We use compact buggies and specialized equipment to transport and place material in areas traditional crews can’t reach without causing damage.

Ideal path thickness depends on factors like its intended use, soil conditions, and expected traffic. Residential walking paths and cart paths typically require a properly compacted base and appropriate asphalt lifts to ensure long-term durability. We’ll assess your specific site conditions and recommend the right specifications during your consultation.

Yes, and many of our path paving clients have us return the following season to apply sealcoating once the new asphalt has fully cured. Sealcoating protects the surface from UV exposure, weather damage, and oxidation, extending the life of your investment.

Most path installations take place between April and November. The ground needs to be frost-free and temperatures should generally stay above 50°F for proper compaction and curing. Our team will help you plan around your timeline and local weather conditions.

Yes–and on these types of projects, we understand that minimizing disruption matters. We work with golf course operators and property managers to phase and schedule work around active use periods wherever possible.
