Home Service Area Gresham
Porter Sealcoating & Paving started in Gresham, and the trucks still get lettered, loaded, and parked here every night. Paving, sealcoating, striping, and repair for driveways and lots from the Main Avenue area to the rural edge toward Orient, done by a crew that never has to drive in from somewhere else.
Porter Sealcoating & Paving did not expand into Gresham. It started here, and four generations later the trucks are still parked on the same streets overnight, not staged at some regional yard across the metro. Gresham is Oregon’s fourth-largest city, but drive it and it still reads like a string of neighborhoods: mid-century ranch houses near the historic Main Avenue core, the subdivisions that filled in through the 80s and 90s, and rural-edge acreage stretching out toward Orient and Pleasant Home, where driveways run long and more than a few are still gravel.
The Springwater Corridor and the farmland along Powell Valley frame the south side of town, and that mix of tree cover and open ground shows up in the work. Shaded driveways under mature trees grow moss every wet winter here, on a ranch house near downtown the same as on a newer place off Powell Valley, and it is the single biggest reason a Gresham driveway needs a real scrub before sealcoating, not a quick rinse. Porter’s crew has been dealing with that exact problem on this exact ground since long before this website existed.
Framed for the ground it actually goes down on here in Gresham, not boilerplate that could describe any asphalt contractor in any town.
New driveways in the 80s and 90s subdivisions, tear-outs and overlays near downtown, and gravel-to-asphalt conversions on the acreage out toward Orient and Pleasant Home.
Moss-fighting sealcoat for shaded Gresham driveways, scrubbed clean first and renewed every 3–5 years.
Crisp, ADA-compliant lines for office parks and lots around town, the same work behind the re-stripe photos shot right here in Gresham.
Crack filling and pothole patching for the older, patched surfaces near Main Avenue, before small damage turns into a full replacement.
Office parks and building managers around Gresham also keep Porter on the schedule for ongoing commercial asphalt work, not just one-time jobs.
Porter is already in town. Call or send the form and get a straight answer, not a sales pitch.
Michael Angelo Martin has known Porter for years, long enough to watch the job count climb past 282 right here in Gresham. Robert Nichols is one of the more recent names on that list.
“Poter is the owner and I have known him for many years. He recently paved and did crack sealing on our 282nd project in Gresham OR. Good prices, friendly group of guys who know how to work hard!”
“Prompt and professional and did a great job. Will use this company again.”
Yes. This is home base, not just a service area on a map. The trucks are lettered and parked in Gresham, and the crew has been working driveways and lots from the Main Avenue area out to the rural edge near Orient since long before this was a 50-plus-town operation.
Every call gets answered, and Porter personally calls you back to set up the estimate, the same as anywhere else the company works. The difference in Gresham is the drive: once it is on the schedule, getting a crew out to look at the job does not take long, because they are already in town.
It is the most common driveway problem in Gresham. Tree cover from the Springwater Corridor and yards across town keeps shaded driveways damp most of the winter, and moss takes hold fast. Before any sealcoat goes down, that surface gets scrubbed clean, not rinsed, so the sealer bonds instead of trapping moss underneath.
Depends on how far gone the base is. A lot of the driveways around the historic Main Avenue core are original to homes built decades ago, and many can be crack-filled, patched, and sealcoated instead of torn out. Porter will walk the driveway with you and give it to you straight on repair versus replace.
Fill out the form and Porter will call you back personally. The crew is already just down the road, so getting on the schedule does not take long.
Tell us a little about the project and we’ll take it from there.
