Paving in Trotwood
Asphalt paving in Trotwood is tied to recent rebuilding. The EF4 tornado of May 27, 2019 damaged 500 Trotwood homes and leveled 59. Many properties have been repaired or rebuilt since, and heavy equipment during cleanup and construction was hard on driveways that survived the storm itself.
Large city
The Village of Trotwood and Madison Township merged in 1996, and the city now covers about 30.5 square miles. That includes older neighborhoods, newer subdivisions and rural parcels, so we pave everything from short city drives to long gravel lanes.
After heavy equipment
Dumpsters, cranes and delivery trucks used during rebuilding can crack and rut a driveway. If yours took that kind of load, we check the base before recommending repairs or replacement.
Sycamore Woods
Sycamore Woods State Park, about 3,000 acres along Wolf Creek, is the only state park in Montgomery County. Homes near the creek may sit on lower, wetter ground.
Road agencies
Approach work at the street is in the right-of-way. We confirm requirements before scheduling.
Winters
Freeze-thaw from November into March is the main threat. Fall crack sealing helps.
Costs
National guides put new asphalt at about $5 to $12 or more per square foot. Your signed proposal is the price.
The Trotwood walk-through
We ask what happened to the drive during any rebuilding: dumpsters, cranes, heavy deliveries. Then we probe for cracked or rutted base, check drainage and the apron, and price each repair or replacement item separately.
Rebuilt homes
Newly rebuilt homes sometimes got a new driveway; others kept an old one that took a beating from equipment. If yours is cracked or rutted, we check whether the base was damaged.
Former Madison Township
The old township areas include larger lots and rural roads with ditches. Drives there cross culverts at the road; we check them at the estimate.
Widening
Drives can be widened to full depth with a saw-cut joint.
Sealing
After crack sealing, a sealcoat every few years helps.
Small businesses
Trotwood businesses rebuilding after 2019 have lots that need patching, sealing and restriping. We phase work around their hours.
Costs
National guides list hot patches at about $2 to $5 per square foot, saw-cut patches at about $4 to $12, and new asphalt at about $5 to $12 or more per square foot.
Timing
We pave from spring through fall and seal cracks in late summer and fall.
Repair or replace
If the base held up through the rebuilding, repairs and sealing may be enough.
