Asphalt Paving in Anderson, IN

Asphalt paving in Anderson often starts with a budget question. Anderson grew on the Indiana gas boom, which began with a natural gas discovery here on March 31, 1887, and later on auto-parts manufacturing. The city peaked at 70,787 residents in 1970 and had 54,788 in 2020. According to the Census Bureau, the median owner-occupied home value is $119,000 and about 55.5 percent of homes are owner-occupied, so a large share of properties are older houses and rentals. Not every one of them needs a new driveway. Many need the right repair.

Repair, resurface or replace

We sort Anderson driveways into three groups during an estimate.

Repair

A few potholes, a sunken spot under a downspout, a broken edge or a utility cut. We saw out the bad area, fix the base and patch with hot mix. A sealcoat afterward ties it together.

Resurface

The base is firm but the surface is rough, gray and full of fine cracks. A new layer over the old one costs less than starting over.

Replace

Cracking in a web pattern across most of the driveway, ruts, or soft areas that move under a car. The base has failed, and only removing it and rebuilding will last.

Rental and investor properties

Landlords and property managers need repairs that make sense for the property's value and rent. We put options side by side on one quote, such as patch and seal now versus replace, so you can weigh them. We can also handle several properties in one trip.

The White River and old neighborhoods

The White River flows east to west through the northern part of the city. Homes near the river and in the older neighborhoods closest to downtown tend to have thin original pavement and, in places, wetter ground. A well-compacted stone base and a surface that drains are what keep a replacement from going the way of the original.

Commercial lots

Anderson has many commercial and industrial lots from its manufacturing years, plus newer development near I-69, which serves the city at Exit 226 among others. Older lots often have failed areas at entrances and around drains. We scope reconstruction of the worst areas and an overlay or seal elsewhere, and restripe to current ADA requirements.

Typical costs for common Anderson jobs

Using HomeGuide's national ranges as a guide: crack filling runs about $0.50 to $3 per linear foot, a pothole repair $100 to $400, saw-cut patching $4 to $12 per square foot, and sealcoating $1 to $2 per square foot. A full replacement of a 400-square-foot driveway falls in the $2,000 to $4,800 range. Your written estimate is the price, and we show each line so you can see where the money goes.

Permits and the street
