Frequently Asked Questions About Paving in the Texas Hill Country
New asphalt is typically ready for foot traffic within 24 hours and vehicle traffic within 48–72 hours. Full curing can take up to 30 days, during which we recommend avoiding heavy loads or sharp turns.
Asphalt paving involves laying a smooth, hot-mix asphalt surface ideal for driveways, parking lots, and high-traffic roads. Chip seal, on the other hand, is a more cost-effective treatment that combines liquid asphalt with crushed stone — perfect for ranch roads, rural driveways, and surface preservation. We’ll help you choose the right option based on your property, traffic, and budget.
