Road Paving in St. George, UT​

Prime Excavating, Inc.

Built to Last: Roadwork That Supports Quality Paving​

Prime Excavating, Inc. delivers dependable road paving and roadwork services in St. George, Utah for residential, commercial, and development projects. Since 2006, our team has helped property owners, contractors, and developers build smooth, long-lasting driving surfaces by getting the groundwork right—from subgrade preparation and base installation to proper drainage and grading.

We are Licensed, Bonded & Insured in Utah and Idaho, and we proudly serve St. George and surrounding communities including Hurricane, Washington, Santa Clara, Ivins, New Harmony, Springdale, and La Verkin.

Great paving starts below the asphalt. Southern Utah soil conditions, heat, and storm runoff can break down poorly prepared roads fast. Our approach focuses on the structural layers that make paving perform over time, so your road holds up to traffic, weather, and daily use.
