Mission sits on flat delta ground where every driveway needs real pitch built in or water pools after a summer storm. Your older neighborhood near downtown, your post-war ranch home, or your newer subdivision lot all share the same challenge: almost no natural fall, expansive clay that moves through wet and dry spells, and a subgrade that has to be compacted and drained from day one or your asphalt will settle, crack, and fail.

McAllen Asphalt Paving has been serving Mission and the surrounding McAllen area since 2010. We know the delta lots, the alluvial clay, and the drainage pitch that keeps water off your garage slab and foundation. We show up with local plates, we measure on site, and we build driveways that hold.

Asphalt Paving in Mission (78572)

Mission's residential footprint stretches from the older neighborhoods near downtown through wide post-war ranch lots and into the fast-growing subdivisions at the city's edge. Every one of those lots sits flat on delta ground with almost no natural slope. That means a driveway needs pitch built in at roughly a quarter inch per foot, or water just sits on the slab after the high-intensity storms that come off the Gulf. The alluvial subgrade here runs from sandy loam in some areas to loamy surfaces over clayey subsoil in others, and that ground moves. A proper aggregate base, compacted and drained, is not optional. Hot mix asphalt laid in binder and surface courses over a solid base is what this market runs on, and that is what we build.

We have been paving in Mission and across the McAllen area for over a decade. We understand the soil, the drainage demands, and the heat and humidity that break pavement down. We size the base, set the pitch, and compact the material right so your driveway holds.

How a Job Works in Mission

We start with a free on-site assessment. We measure your driveway or lot, look at the existing surface and the grade, check access for our equipment, and ask about any drainage problems or settling you have seen. If your property is in an HOA, we confirm what the architectural standards allow. If your work touches the street apron or a curb cut, we talk through what permits your municipality requires. We give you a written estimate with tonnage and thickness specs so you know exactly what you are paying for.

When we start the job, we excavate and prepare the base, compact it, and lay the asphalt in the courses and thickness your estimate calls for. We set the pitch so water runs off. On a tight lot or a narrow drive in one of Mission's older neighborhoods, we plan access carefully and work efficiently. We finish with cleanup and a final walkthrough so you see the job done right.

A new asphalt driveway in Mission typically runs from $6 per square foot and up, depending on the base condition, access, and thickness. Resurfacing an existing drive costs from $4 per square foot. Repair work like pothole patching starts at $450. A full driveway replacement runs from $7 per square foot. Parking lot work is quoted per site because the scope varies widely. The cost depends on how much prep the base needs, whether we are removing old material, how much pitch we have to build in, and how thick the finished surface needs to be. We give you a written estimate before we start. Call us at (956) 578-6392 for a free estimate on your driveway or lot in Mission.

Why does water sit on my driveway after a heavy storm, even though it looks level?

Mission lots have almost no natural fall, so a driveway needs pitch built in at installation or water pools on the slab. If your drive was built without proper slope, water can sit after a Gulf storm and seep into the base, weakening it from underneath. We can resurface your existing drive and build in the pitch you need, or if the base has already failed, we replace it with the right grade and drainage. Call us at (956) 578-6392 to have us look at it.

My driveway has settled and cracked near the garage. Is it time to replace it?

Not always. If the cracks are isolated and the surface is otherwise sound, we can patch and seal the problem spots. If the settling is severe or widespread, the subgrade has likely moved through a wet-then-dry season and the base was not compacted properly when it was built. In that case, resurfacing may buy time, but a replacement with a solid compacted base is the lasting fix. We assess the damage on site and tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes sense.

What does asphalt paving cost in Mission, and what affects the price?

A new driveway starts at $6 per square foot, resurfacing from $4 per square foot, and repairs from $450. The real cost depends on the square footage, how much base work is needed, whether we are removing old material, and how thick the finished surface needs to be. A lot with poor drainage or soft subgrade costs more because the base takes more work. We measure on site and give you a written estimate with tonnage and thickness so you know what you are paying for.

Do I need a permit to pave my driveway in Mission, and who approves it?

Permits vary by municipality. If your work touches the street apron or a curb cut, your city may require a permit. The City of Mission website has the rules for your property, or you can call the building department to verify what you need. If you are in an HOA community, the architectural standards may also govern driveway material and extensions. We help you navigate the local requirements and work with whatever permits your city issues.

Can we widen our driveway or extend it into the yard without running into neighbor or property-line issues?

Property lines are set by your deed and survey. Before we widen or extend, you should verify your lot lines with a surveyor or your property records. If you are in an HOA, the architectural review board may need to approve the extension before we start. We can do the work, but the property-line and HOA questions come first. It takes a few days to get clarity and it protects you.

Are you fully insured for this work?

Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. You can ask to see our current certificates of insurance before we start work on your property.

How long does new asphalt take to cure, and when can I use my driveway?

New asphalt is ready for light driving within 24 to 48 hours in cool weather, but it continues to cure and harden for several months. In Mission's heat, curing is faster, but you should avoid heavy parking, sharp turns, or letting vehicles sit in one spot for the first week. New asphalt should not be sealed for the first six to twelve months while it fully cures. After that, regular maintenance like crack filling keeps it in good shape.
