How Does the Ground Change Across Our Service Area?
The ground under your pavement changes a lot between Harper and Seguin. That matters more than distance, because the base is what holds a driveway or road together. Here is what we plan for in each part of the map.
West: Thin Soil Over Limestone
Towns like Kerrville, Hunt, Harper and Fredericksburg sit on the Edwards Plateau. Common soils here, like the Brackett series, reach limestone bedrock within 5 to 20 inches according to USDA soil survey records. That gives a strong foundation, but it can mean rock work during grading and careful planning for drainage on slopes.
East: Clay That Swells and Shrinks
Toward Seguin, San Marcos and the I-35 corridor, you get closer to Blackland Prairie clay. The Texas Water Development Board notes these soils shrink and swell markedly as moisture changes. On clay, we dig out soft spots and build a thicker, well compacted base so the pavement does not move with the ground.
Rain Changes From West to East
Rainfall also climbs as you move east. On the Edwards Plateau, average yearly rain ranges from about 15 inches in the far west to more than 33 inches in the east, based on Texas Parks and Wildlife data. More rain means drainage and crown matter more on eastern jobs.
What Do We Build Across These Towns?
We do the same work in every town on the list. You get the same crew, the same equipment and the same written estimate whether you live 9 miles away or 70.
- Chip seal (tar and chip): our top specialty, popular on long rural drives and ranch roads out west.
- Asphalt driveway paving: new installs, overlays and full replacements.
- Parking lots and commercial paving: for businesses, churches and HOAs.
- Private roads and sub-base construction: grading, base and drainage built from the ground up.
- Repairs and maintenance: sealcoating, crack filling, patching and pothole repair.
- Concrete work: for areas where concrete is the better fit.
Long gravel drives in Kerr and Gillespie counties are a common chip seal job. Our tar and chip paving page explains how it works and why it holds up on rural property.
