Asphalt Paving in Weslaco, TX

Asphalt paving in Weslaco has to start with water. The city sits at about 79 feet above sea level, and it has flooded more than once in recent years: 10 to 12 inches of rain fell in October 2015, and in June 2026 Tropical Storm Arthur dropped six inches and sent floodwater into homes. Asphalt that sits in water, or has water running under its edges, loses its base. In Weslaco, how a driveway or lot drains matters as much as how thick it is.

Grading for runoff

On every new driveway or lot we set the finished grade so water moves away from buildings and toward the street, a swale or an inlet. Where a driveway currently slopes toward the garage, we correct it in the base. We also look at roof downspouts that empty onto pavement and suggest where to redirect them.

After a flood

When pavement has been underwater, the base below it can stay saturated and weak for some time. Soft spots, new cracks and potholes often show up weeks later. We check for those areas and repair them by removing the wet material and rebuilding with compacted base, rather than patching over the top.

Heat records too

Weslaco also has one of the oldest heat records in the Valley: 110 degrees on April 17, 1920. Summer sun does the same damage here as anywhere in the Valley, so sealcoating stays on the maintenance list.

Commercial lots

Businesses along I-2/US 83, 16 miles east of McAllen, need lots that drain to the right place and stay striped. We overlay, patch and restripe in phases.
