Georgetown's growth corridor north of Round Rock has filled with subdivision homes built through the 1990s and 2000s, and those driveways are now old enough to need real work. Whether you live near I-35 in one of those master-planned communities or in the older neighborhoods closer to downtown on clay-heavy ground, your asphalt is dealing with Texas weather that cracks and heaves it every season.

Austin Asphalt Paving has been serving Georgetown and the surrounding Austin area since 2012. We know the soil conditions here, the drainage challenges, and what happens to a driveway when the Blackland Prairie clay swells after a heavy rain and shrinks again in the heat. When your driveway needs repair, resurfacing, or replacement, or when a parking lot or private road has failed, we show up with a local crew, a clear estimate, and honest advice about what your pavement actually needs.

Asphalt Paving in Georgetown (78628)

Georgetown's paving challenges are shaped by two distinct conditions. North of the city, subdivision driveways laid on modern base preparation are aging into their first resurfacing cycle, where alligator cracking and surface rutting signal that the top layer has worn through and needs overlay or full replacement. South and east, toward the clay belt near downtown, many older properties sit on driveways poured over thin asphalt on compacted caliche, with no real base layer underneath. When the Blackland Prairie clay gets soaked in a hard rain, it swells; when it dries in the Texas heat, it cracks and pulls away from the edges. The driveway heaves and settles with every wet-dry cycle, and water runs toward the garage or foundation instead of away from it.

Access matters here too. Many Georgetown lots are narrow and deep, with tight approaches that limit the size of equipment a paver can bring in. We plan for that. On private roads and HOA driveways, we coordinate with the property manager or the architectural committee before we start. We have been doing this work in the Austin area for over a decade, and we understand the local conditions, the permit process, and what a Georgetown homeowner or property manager actually needs.

How a Job Works in Georgetown

We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (737) 256-6070 or reach out online, and we schedule a time to look at the driveway, parking lot, or private road. We measure the area, look at the base condition, check drainage and grading, and talk through what you have seen (cracking, settling, water pooling, potholes). We give you a written estimate with square footage, thickness, and material tonnage so you know exactly what the work covers.

Once you approve, we schedule the work around your availability and local permit requirements. If your driveway apron touches the right-of-way or if your HOA requires approval, we help you navigate that. On the day of the job, our crew removes the old pavement if needed, prepares and compacts the base, and lays new asphalt in proper lifts with the thickness and density your driveway requires. We grade for drainage so water sheds away from your house and garage. When we are done, we clean up the site and walk through the finished work with you.

Pricing for driveway paving in Georgetown ranges from about $6 per square foot for new installation and $7 per square foot for full replacement, depending on the base condition and what needs to be removed. Resurfacing and overlay runs from about $4 per square foot when the existing base is sound. A simple pothole or small patch repair starts at $450, while more extensive patching or a driveway repair job typically runs $450 and up. For parking lots, we provide a free commercial estimate so you understand the scope and cost before any commitment. The real cost drivers are the square footage of the area, the condition of the base underneath, how much old material needs to be removed, and the thickness and material the job requires. We give you a written estimate with tonnage specifications so there are no surprises. Call us at (737) 256-6070 for a free on-site assessment and a firm quote for your Georgetown property.

My driveway in a Georgetown subdivision is cracking in a checkerboard pattern. Is it time to replace it, or can it be resurfaced?

Alligator cracking that covers more than about thirty to forty percent of the surface usually means the base has failed or the asphalt is too thin. An overlay will not hold on a base that has already moved. In that case, we recommend full-depth removal and replacement so the new driveway sits on a proper compacted base with the right thickness. If the cracking is lighter and more isolated, resurfacing can work. We assess it on site and tell you honestly which option makes sense for your driveway.

I live on clay soil near downtown Georgetown and my driveway heaves and cracks every year. What causes this, and can it be fixed?

The Blackland Prairie clay swells when it absorbs water and shrinks when it dries, and it moves a lot. If your original driveway was poured without a compacted base layer underneath, it rides that movement every season and cracks. The fix is removal and replacement with proper base preparation. We excavate the old asphalt, compact the clay subgrade, add a compacted crushed-stone base layer, and lay the new asphalt on top. That base layer absorbs and distributes the load so the pavement does not ride the clay movement. It costs more upfront, but it stops the annual cycle.

How much does it cost to pave a typical two-car driveway in Georgetown?

A typical two-car driveway is roughly 600 to 800 square feet. At current pricing, new paving runs about $6 per square foot, so a basic two-car driveway starts around $3,600 to $4,800 before site prep or base work. If the old driveway has to be removed, add $1,500 and up depending on what is there. If the base is poor and needs compaction and stone, add more. We measure on site and give you a written estimate with all the details so you know the cost before we start.

Do I need a permit from the City of Georgetown to pave my driveway?

Permits for driveway work in Georgetown are set by the city and vary depending on whether your work touches the right-of-way (the apron where the driveway meets the street). If your driveway apron needs work or if you are extending the driveway, the city may require a permit. If you live in a master-planned community, your HOA may also require architectural approval. We help you navigate the local permitting process, but you should verify the rules with the Georgetown building department or your HOA before we start. Texas law also requires a utility locate (Texas 811) before any excavation, which we arrange.

My HOA requires approval for driveway work. How do we handle that in Georgetown?

We work with your HOA. When you call us, let us know your property is in a master-planned community and which one. We can provide documentation of the work we propose, materials, and timeline so you have what you need to submit to the architectural committee. Many HOAs in Georgetown require driveway materials and colors to match the community standards, and some limit extensions or widening. We help you understand those rules and make sure the finished work meets them. Approval timelines vary, so we factor that into scheduling.

Are you fully insured to do paving work on my Georgetown property?

Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance for all paving work. That protects you and our crew. When we give you an estimate, we include proof of insurance so you have it on file.

I just had new asphalt paved. When can I seal it, and what should I do to care for it?

New asphalt needs to cure for six to twelve months before you seal it. During that time, the oils in the mix are still hardening and the surface is still maturing. Sealing too early traps moisture and can cause the surface to soften or blister. After the cure period, you can seal it if you want, but that is a separate service we do not provide. In the meantime, keep heavy vehicles and equipment off it for the first week or two while it fully sets, and avoid parking in the same spot repeatedly during hot weather, which can cause rutting. Light traffic is fine. If you have questions about care during the cure period, we walk through that when the job is done.
