Home Service Area Marylhurst
Marylhurst is a short, wooded stretch of Highway 43 between Lake Oswego and West Linn. Porter Stanley quotes every driveway here in person, and his crew handles the paving and sealcoating, tree cover and all.
Marylhurst is not really a town. It is a short stretch of Highway 43 between Lake Oswego and West Linn, known mostly for the wooded estate properties set back from the road and for the former Marylhurst University campus, the one landmark most people use to place it on a map. There is no downtown and no city hall here, just long driveways disappearing into fir trees on both sides of the highway. We treat this corridor for what it is: a small, specific area, not a big market to pad a service list.
The tree cover that makes these driveways look good also works against the asphalt underneath. Fir canopy keeps a driveway shaded most of the day, which slows drying after sealcoating and lets moss take hold faster than it would on an open lot. Needles and cone litter collect in the same low spots year after year and hold moisture against the surface if nobody clears them. Before we sealcoat a shaded estate driveway, we machine-scrub it first, so moss and debris are not getting sealed under the new coating.
Marylhurst also sits right between two cities with high expectations for driveway work. Homeowners here want the same clean-edged, jet-black finish that their Lake Oswego and West Linn neighbors expect, on driveways that tend to run longer and see more tree cover than a typical in-town lot. Porter walks the site before quoting, because a wooded estate driveway on Highway 43 needs a different plan than a flat driveway in a subdivision.
Machine-scrubbed prep before every sealcoat, so shade-grown moss and fir debris never get sealed under the coating.

Marylhurst is a short stretch of Highway 43 between Lake Oswego and West Linn, and that’s exactly where we work: the estate driveways and private roads along that corridor, plus the surrounding Lake Oswego and West Linn area.
Yes. We machine-scrub shaded driveways before sealcoating so moss and fir debris don’t get sealed under the new coating. It’s a normal step on wooded Marylhurst properties, and it’s worth staying close to the 3–5 year sealcoating cycle rather than stretching it out.
Every 3–5 years for most driveways. Shaded, tree-covered driveways like the ones common in Marylhurst tend to need it on the closer end of that range.
Long driveways, private roads, and gravel-to-asphalt conversions are regular work for us. Porter walks the site and quotes it in person, whatever the length.
