Asphalt Contractor Titusville Birmingham AL
Serving Titusville (35211) with driveways, lots, sealcoating and repairs.
Red clay under Titusville soaks up rain and hangs onto it. Lay a driveway over soft, soggy subgrade anywhere in 35211 and you'll be looking at cracks after two winters. Patching won't save a bad base. Nothing will.
Then you've got the freeze and thaw cycle, followed by an Alabama summer that bakes everything, and thin asphalt just comes apart under that swing. Drive the older streets around Goldwire Avenue or the blocks by Memorial Park and you'll spot it on half the drives. As your local asphalt contractor in Birmingham, AL, we dig the soft spots out first, set the grade so runoff leaves the slab, and then pave with a mix that suits this climate instead of fighting it.
Licensed, bonded and insured in Alabama. Our own crews, our own equipment, nothing brokered out to whoever's cheap that week. Ring us and we'll put a free written estimate together after measuring on site.

Realistic Timeframes and What to Expect
- Day 1: Measure, your questions answered, written estimate in your inbox
- Scheduling: Typically 1 to 3 weeks out, depending on rain
- Driveways: One day for most, two when the base has to be rebuilt
- Parking lots: 2 to 5 days, usually phased so half stays open for customers
- Cure time: Off it for 24 hours, no sharp turns or parked trailers for 30 days
Sealcoat wants dry air and roughly 50 degrees, which in Birmingham means late spring through early fall is your best shot.
Local Tips From Our Titusville Crews
- Drainage before anything else. This clay barely drains. Puddles sitting on your drive after a storm? Regrading will do more for you than fresh asphalt.
- Mind the curb cut. Work in the city right of way near the arterials can trigger a permit. That conversation is on us.
- Seal every 3 to 4 years, never yearly. Pile it on too often and it peels right off.
- Trim back the shade trees on these older blocks. Asphalt that never dries out stays soft.
- Book church and school lots during summer break, or grab a Monday through Thursday slot.

What businesses here usually start with
Paving in Titusville: common questions
Do you handle tight driveways on older Titusville streets?
All the time. Plenty of drives around here are narrow with a sharp swing off the road. Smaller pavers go in and the edges get finished by hand, which keeps lawns and fence lines intact.
How much does driveway paving cost in Titusville, Birmingham AL?
Figure somewhere between $3,500 and $8,000 for most homes in 35211. Size, what the base looks like underneath, and any drainage work move that number. After the measure you'll have an exact price in writing.
Do you work near Memorial Park and the I 65 corridor?
Constantly. Those blocks sit right in the middle of our service area, and we're doing both home drives and business lots over there.
Do I need a permit for driveway work in Birmingham?
Resurfacing what's already there usually doesn't require one. Cutting a new curb or touching the city right of way sometimes does. Either way you'll know before we book the date.
How fast can you get to a Titusville pothole repair?
Small patches often fit in within a few days if the weather holds. Give us a call and we'll look at the schedule.
