Paving contractor · Sussex County, DEPaving in Delaware, from just over the line.
A paving contractor for Sussex County, DE and Kent County, from Seaford down to Rehoboth Beach. Federalsburg sits a few miles from the line, and Delaware gets the same crew and the same two year warranty.
Sussex and Kent: Seaford, Milford, Rehoboth.
MD 318 runs east out of Federalsburg to the Delaware line, and a lot of Bob's work is on the other side of it: driveways, farm lanes, tar and chip, sealcoating and parking lots.
- Asphalt driveways and lanes
- Tar and chip in red, tan or grey
- Stone and gravel
- Sealcoating, repair and striping
Two kinds of Delaware job.
Inland, around Seaford, Milford and the Kent County farm country, the work looks like home: long lanes, farmhouse drives, pole barn aprons and country homes where tar and chip suits the property better than a wide black drive. Driveway paving in Seaford and asphalt paving in Milford are built the same way as in Federalsburg: soft ground out, a stone base compacted in layers, and the fall set so water leaves the drive.
Toward Rehoboth Beach the ground turns sandy and the water table sits closer to the surface, so drainage comes first and the base gets more attention than it would inland. Driveways under raised homes, rental properties and small business lots are phased so the property can stay open, and a seal coat every few years keeps sun and salt air from graying the surface.
Every Delaware job runs out of the same yard on Reliance Road with the same family crew and its own equipment, from the free estimate to the last pass of the roller. You talk to Bob, who walks the drive and gives you one clear number before anything starts.
Delaware questions, answered straight.
Do you pave in Delaware?
Yes. Sussex and Kent counties are part of our regular ground, from Seaford down to Rehoboth Beach and up to Milford. Call and tell us where you are and we will tell you straight whether we cover it.
Is it the same crew as in Maryland?
Yes. One family crew with its own equipment works every job, from the estimate to the last pass of the roller.
Do Delaware jobs cost more because of the drive?
No. The number on your estimate covers the job wherever you are inside our service area.
What do you do in Delaware?
The same as at home: asphalt driveways and lanes, tar and chip, stone and gravel, sealcoating, repair, parking lots with striping, and topsoil and fill dirt.
Do you lay tar and chip in Delaware?
Yes. Tar and chip suits a lot of the country drives and farm lanes in Sussex County, and it is laid the same way as at home: hot liquid asphalt, clean stone, rolled in while it is hot.
Do you sealcoat driveways and lots near the beach?
Yes. Near the coast, sun, salt air and freeze and thaw all pull at the binder that holds asphalt together, and a seal coat every few years puts that protection back.
Do you charge to come out and give an estimate?
No. Estimates are free in Delaware the same as in Maryland, with no travel charge for the drive over.
Can you pave a long farm lane in Kent County?
Yes. A long lane needs a wider stone shoulder, room for equipment to pass and real thought about where the water runs, since a lane can act like a ditch in a heavy rain. The whole run is looked at, not just the part near the house.
Do you do parking lots in Delaware?
Yes: churches, stores, rentals and small business lots, paved, sealed and striped, and phased section by section so the property stays open.
Will a new drive hold a boat trailer at a beach house?
It will if it is built for it. Say what will sit on it and where, and the base and the asphalt are made thicker in that spot.
