Oshawa runs from the lakeside Lakeview neighbourhood and the historic downtown up through Donevan and Samac to the university and Windfields area in the north. It is an industrial and university city, and Magnum paves the family driveways and the heavy commercial and institutional lots across it.
The older downtown and Lakeview lots are mature, with driveways laid generations ago over a shallow base that is cracking and shifting — usually due for a proper replacement to the right depth, not another overlay. The newer Windfields and Samac subdivisions near the university tend to have thin builder-grade asphalt that is failing at the edges within a few years.
Oshawa's industrial corridors around the GM lands, Stevenson, and the employment areas run on heavy truck traffic, and those lots and yards take a beating — a thin surface over a weak base fails fast. We build the sub-base, mix, and slope a high-load site actually needs, phase large lots so the business keeps running, and grade to the drains so water moves.
Oshawa's clay base, lakeside grades, and freeze-thaw move asphalt around, so the sub-base does the real work. We get the grading and compaction right the first time — near Ontario Tech or a single Donevan driveway alike — and we are straight about whether a lot needs full reconstruction or whether a repair and sealcoat will carry it another season.
Neighbourhoods we cover in Oshawa include downtown Oshawa, Lakeview, Windfields, Samac, and Donevan, along with the streets and properties around the Oshawa GM headquarters, Ontario Tech University, and Lakeview Park.
