Asphalt Paving in Washington Township, OH

Asphalt paving in Washington Township covers a big area. The township spans about 31.2 square miles in the southeastern corner of Montgomery County, wrapped around the city of Centerville. It shares the Centerville City School District, even though township land lies outside city limits, so many residents think of themselves as Centerville. For road and permit questions, though, the difference matters.

Township vs. city

Inside Centerville, city permit rules apply, including a right-of-way permit for apron and sidewalk work. Outside city limits, township and county rules govern. If your driveway meets a county road, that road agency controls the approach. We confirm which applies to your address before planning work at the street.

Subdivision driveways

Most township homes are in subdivisions built over the last several decades. Older drives may be ready for replacement; newer ones mostly need crack sealing and sealcoating. If cracks appear early in the tire paths, the base may be thin, and we will tell you whether repairs will hold.

Parks everywhere

The Centerville-Washington Park District runs 8 community parks, 9 nature parks and 33 neighborhood parks across about 1,000 acres. Many homes back onto green space or wooded areas. Shaded drives stay damp longer and collect leaves, so drainage and crack sealing matter.

Widening

Growing households often want a wider driveway or a side pad. We build the new section to full depth and tie it in with a saw-cut joint.

Winters

Freeze-thaw cycles from November into March work water into any open crack. Autumn crack sealing costs little and does a lot.

Costs

National guides put new asphalt at about $5 to $12 or more per square foot and sealcoating at about $1 to $2 per square foot. Your signed proposal is the price.

Larger lots on the edges

Toward the township's outer edges, some parcels are larger, with longer drives and roadside ditches. Where they meet the road, those drives pass over a culvert pipe. A crushed or silted pipe backs water against the approach, so we check it at the estimate.

Planning a replacement

At the estimate we measure, probe the tire paths and edges, check drainage and the apron, and ask how many vehicles use the drive. The proposal lists removal, base depth, asphalt thickness and any apron or approach work separately.

Overlays

If the drive is worn on top but firm underneath, an overlay can renew it for less than replacement. HomeGuide puts an overlay roughly 20 to 30 percent below the cost of replacing a driveway in reasonable condition.

Shade from the parks

Homes backing onto wooded park land get more shade and more leaves. Clearing leaves before winter and sealing cracks every fall help shaded drives last.

Turnarounds on busier roads

Homes on busier township and county roads often benefit from a turnaround so cars can pull out forward. We lay it out to fit the lot, built to full depth.

Costs

National guides put sealcoating at about $1 to $2 per square foot and crack sealing at about $0.50 to $3 per linear foot.

Timing

We pave from spring through fall and seal cracks in late summer and fall.
