Asphalt Paving in Bemiss, GA

Asphalt paving in Bemiss serves one of the largest unincorporated communities around Valdosta. Bemiss was listed as a census-designated place for the first time in 2020, when it counted 8,999 residents and 3,239 housing units across about 7.8 square miles in northern Lowndes County. It lies along State Route 125, about 8 miles north of central Valdosta, on the way to Moody Air Force Base. The median age was 31.5.

Subdivision driveways

Much of Bemiss is subdivisions, and many driveways are fairly young. The best value on a young driveway is maintenance: a first sealcoat after the asphalt cures, crack sealing as cracks open and quick repair of any area that settles. Where fill has settled near a garage, we cut out the section and rebuild it.

Military moves

With Moody nearby, many households move on a set schedule. If you are preparing a house to sell or rent, a sealcoat and a few repairs can make a driveway look well kept for a modest cost. If you have just arrived and the driveway needs work, we explain what is urgent and what can wait.

Unincorporated, so county rules

Because Bemiss is not an incorporated city, roads are generally maintained by Lowndes County or, on SR 125, by GDOT. Driveway connections to SR 125 need a GDOT permit for anything done inside the state right-of-way. County roads go through Lowndes County. Many subdivisions also have HOAs with their own rules on driveway changes.

HOA approvals

Many Bemiss subdivisions have HOAs that set rules for driveway widening, parking pads and materials. If yours does, get approval before scheduling. We provide a written scope with dimensions for the application.

Extra parking

Growing families and multi-vehicle households often want a parking pad beside the driveway. A pad needs the same compacted base as the driveway and a clean tie-in so the joint does not crack.

Utility locates

Newer neighborhoods have utilities running along the street and often beside driveways. A Georgia 811 ticket goes in before any excavation.

Sandy ground

Northern Lowndes County has the sandy upland soils typical of the Coastal Plain. We compact the subgrade well, build a solid base and slope the surface so summer storms run off quickly.
