Driveway Construction in East Aldine, TX.
That driveway you've been patching every year? It's not getting better. East Aldine's clay soil moves constantly with moisture changes expanding when wet, contracting when dry. If your contractor didn't account for this with proper base material, expansion joints, and adequate thickness, you're stuck in endless repair cycles. I've replaced dozens of driveways in the 77032 area that were failing because someone cut corners on base prep or excavation depth trying to save a few hundred dollars upfront.
We build driveways throughout East Aldine, Aldine, and South Houston engineered for longevity. Our work includes 6-8 inches of excavation, proper base compaction, and strategic sloping that directs water away from foundations. Whether you need basic concrete or stamped decorative finishes, the preparation work determines whether your driveway lasts 20+ years or needs replacement in five. Most driveway problems trace back to contractors who rushed foundation work that nobody sees but everyone relies on for decades.
Common Driveway Problems:
- Progressive cracking from clay soil movement and inadequate base preparation
- Water pooling near foundation because slope directs water wrong direction
- Settlement creating uneven surfaces that damage vehicle suspensions
- Edges breaking down from insufficient thickness or missing reinforcement
- Width inadequate for modern vehicles making entry and exit difficult
- Staining and surface deterioration from skipping proper sealing
