About Tomlinson Asphalt
Since 1974, Tomlinson Asphalt has served hundreds of clients across Northwest Arkansas with expert quality paving and heavy construction services.
Our Story
Our company was founded in 1974 by Dempsey "Bud" Tomlinson and his wife Barbara.
In the 50+ years since, we have grown with Northwest Arkansas, developing into a multi-million dollar company with over 50 employees.
We fill an important need in our local market where high quality, reliable paving execution is crucial. As a trusted partner on large projects, we perform 95% of all work under contract in-house, subcontracting finishing details like striping and traffic control.

We are proud to serve our clients with a level of honesty and professionalism matched only by our dedication to quality and customer service.
Our working style is personal: when we're working with you, you can trust that your estimator or project manager is just a phone call away.
When you give us a call, our office in Fayetteville picks up the phone - not someone at a call center in another state or overseas.
Customer Service
Our deep in-house experience benefits our clients by allowing us to come alongside you not just as an asphalt contractor, but a trusted resource for planning your heavy construction and surface paving projects.
We build relationships with our clients that far outlast our first job, becoming a heavy construction partner for years to come.
