Paving in Quitman

Asphalt paving in Quitman serves a historic county seat. Quitman became the seat of Brooks County when the county was formed in 1858, was incorporated as a town in 1859 and as a city in 1904, and is named for John A. Quitman. The Quitman Historic District is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and James Lord Pierpont, the composer of "Jingle Bells," lived here. In 2020 the city had 4,064 residents and 1,881 housing units.

Older homes

Quitman has many older homes with driveways that have been patched for decades. We check the base and recommend repair, overlay or replacement depending on what we find. For homes in the historic district, we keep driveways in scale with the house and recommend checking with the city before any change that is visible from the street.

US 84 and US 221

US 84 and US 221 pass through the center of Quitman, running together 17 miles east to Valdosta and 15 miles to I-75. Businesses along those routes need lots that handle highway traffic. Driveway connections to the highways need a GDOT permit for anything done inside the state right-of-way.

Rural Brooks County

Outside town, farms and homes on acreage have long drives. We convert gravel to asphalt with a compacted base and crowned surface, and check the culvert at the road.

Lots for churches and small businesses

Quitman's churches and downtown businesses often have small lots with patched surfaces and faded lines. A combination of patching, crack sealing, sealcoating and restriping brings them back for much less than repaving, and the work can be scheduled between services or after business hours.

Locates

Before any digging, we request Georgia 811 locates. Older neighborhoods often have service lines that are not where owners expect.

Vacant and rental homes

The 2020 census found 13 percent of Quitman's housing units vacant. For owners fixing up a house to sell or rent, patching and sealcoating a driveway is an affordable improvement.
