When we first saw the driveway in Middletown, PA, it was clear that time—and water—had taken a toll. Cracks ran across the surface like veins, and rainwater had found places to settle, slowly breaking the pavement apart.
The homeowners were tired of looking at it and even more tired of dodging puddles and tripping over uneven patches.
They didn’t want a temporary fix.
They wanted the asphalt driveway completely redone—the right way.
Fixing the Problem Beneath the Surface
This job came to us through local networking, and our crew at RDS Paving & Sealcoating was glad to take it on.
Once we visited the property, we knew a complete asphalt paving was the only way forward. The damage was widespread, and cosmetic asphalt repairs wouldn’t last, especially with Middletown’s unpredictable weather.
We started by removing the old pavement entirely.
Peeling it back revealed just how worn the underlying layers were. Years of poor drainage had taken their toll, so we took extra care to regrade the base. Correcting the slope ensured water would no longer sit in low spots and eat away at the surface.
With the groundwork in place, we moved on to the new asphalt.
We used a high-quality mix, laid it evenly, and compacted it to create a seamless, durable surface. From start to finish, every step was done with long-term performance in mind—not just appearance.
The Transformation
Once the final layer was down and the edges were cleanly sealed, the difference was dramatic. What had once been a cracked, uneven eyesore was now a smooth, level driveway that looked as good as it functioned.
The homeowners were thrilled.
They told us it looked brand new. And more importantly, water no longer pooled after a rain. The driveway didn’t just look better, it worked better.
And that’s exactly what we aim for on every project.
