Asphalt Paving in Hahira, GA

Asphalt paving in Hahira has picked up with the town's growth. Hahira had 1,626 residents in 2000, 2,737 in 2010 and 3,384 in 2020, roughly doubling in twenty years, and the census counted 1,382 housing units. Incorporated in 1891, it sits in northwest Lowndes County on US 41, 14 miles north of Valdosta, with I-75 Exit 29 at State Route 122.

New homes, new driveways

Much of Hahira's housing is recent, and many new homes start with a short builder apron or a gravel drive. We pave full driveways on a compacted base and set the slope so water heads to the street or yard. On newer driveways that show a dip or crack near the garage, the cause is usually fill that settled, and we cut out and rebuild that section.

Older homes near downtown

Around Church Street and Main Street, older homes have driveways that have been patched over many years. We judge whether an overlay can work or whether the old base has failed, and explain what we find.

Festival town

The Hahira Honeybee Festival, held the first week of October since 1981, draws crowds estimated at up to 36,000. Businesses and churches near downtown often want their lots patched, sealed and restriped before the festival. If that is your goal, call us by late summer so there is time to schedule and let paint and sealer cure.

A typical Hahira project

A two-car driveway in a newer Hahira subdivision usually takes a few days: removal or grading, compaction and base, paving, and finishing. Before digging, we request Georgia 811 locates, since water, power and fiber often run near the driveway in new neighborhoods. You get written care instructions and a sealcoat timeline when the job is done.

Gravel conversions on the edge of town

Homes toward the county roads often have gravel drives. Converting them to asphalt on a compacted base ends regrading after storms and gives you a cleaner approach to the house.

Commuters on I-75

Many Hahira residents drive to Valdosta or Tifton every day. Driveways that see several cars a day wear fastest at the street apron, and a targeted repair there can extend the life of the whole driveway.

Roads and permits

US 41 (Church Street) and SR 122 (Main Street) are state routes, so driveway connections to them need a GDOT permit for work in the right-of-way. City streets go through the City of Hahira and county roads through Lowndes County.
