Expert Asphalt Paving Services for Fernley's Growing Community
With Fernley’s rapid industrial expansion along the Interstate 80 corridor, properties here depend on asphalt contractors who can handle heavy truck loading, new construction schedules, and the pace of a city that has grown from a railroad siding into one of Northern Nevada’s fastest developing markets. Asphalt Protectors Inc. has been paving in this region since 1989, and our experience with distribution facilities, manufacturing sites, and fast growing residential subdivisions maps directly onto what Fernley, NV needs.
We are a full-service contractor. Our Fernley work includes new construction paving, asphalt paving, rip out and replace, asphalt overlay, parking lot paving, asphalt repair and patching, saw cut and removal, crack filling and crack sealing, pothole repair, puddle repair, parking lot repair, asphalt maintenance, sealcoating, and striping. Milling is coordinated through subcontract partners. On the concrete side we build sidewalks, curb and gutter, dumpster pads, catch basin structures, entrance aprons, and ramps. Homeowners in Fernley’s newer subdivisions use us for driveway paving, repair, and sealcoating.
Heavy load pavement is engineering, not guesswork. That is why we put significant resources into quality control, working alongside engineering firms to keep our testing and inspection standards current. Our veteran crews run top of the line equipment, and we manufacture Pitch Black, one of the leading sealer products available anywhere.
Some of the region’s largest operators, Walmart among them, have trusted us with their pavement. We carry Nevada contractor license 0058389 with A-16 and A-8 classifications.

Fernley, NV
Fernley sits about 35 miles east of Reno at roughly 4,100 feet, where Interstate 80 meets US-95 Alternate and US-50 Alternate. Incorporated in 2001 as Nevada’s newest municipality, the city spans 168 square miles and has grown from around 8,500 residents in 2000 to roughly 25,000 today, with Lyon County ranking among the fastest growing counties in the state. Industrial development drives that growth. The Victory Logistics District, an Amazon fulfillment center, Sherwin-Williams, and Polaris all operate here, and Union Pacific rail access alongside I-80 keeps freight moving through town continuously. Retail along East Main Street and new subdivisions south of the interstate round out the property mix.
Fernley’s high desert climate is hard on pavement in ways that are easy to underestimate. Annual precipitation is low, but summer surface temperatures on dark asphalt climb well past ambient air readings, softening binder under standing truck loads and producing the rutting and shoving common across Fernley yards and loading areas. Winter brings repeated freeze-thaw cycling, and the alkaline soils in this part of Lyon County complicate subgrade preparation. Add heavy axle loads from distribution traffic and the result is pavement that fails at joints and edges first. Regular crack sealing and properly constructed truck aprons make the largest difference here.
FAQS
Can you handle new construction paving for Fernley commercial and industrial developments?
Yes. New construction paving is one of our core services, and we coordinate directly with general contractors and developers on Fernley projects to meet grade, thickness, and schedule requirements. We can also handle the associated concrete, including curb and gutter, sidewalks, dumpster pads, and catch basins.
What causes rutting in Fernley truck yards and loading areas?
Rutting usually comes from a combination of heavy static loads, high summer pavement temperatures, and a section that was never built thick enough for the traffic it carries. In Fernley we often recommend a heavier structural section or full depth reconstruction in loading zones rather than repeated surface patching.
