Maysville sits along Highway 17 in Jones County with a character all its own: older homes on spacious rural lots where gravel driveways are still the standard, and where the sandy coastal plain soil drains well on high ground but turns soft and seasonally wet near the creeks that cut through the flat terrain. When you need a driveway that sheds water and holds up to fifty-plus inches of rain a year, Jacksonville Asphalt Paving knows exactly what Maysville demands.
We have served homeowners and property managers across Jacksonville and the surrounding areas since 2016, including Maysville (28555) and the rural communities around it. Gravel driveways work until they don't, and when it's time to upgrade to asphalt, or when an existing driveway starts settling or holding water after a storm, we show up with the right equipment, honest estimates, and the local knowledge to get it right the first time.
Asphalt Paving in Maysville (28555)
Maysville's landscape presents real challenges for driveways. The flat, sandy loamy soil drains well at the high points, but near the creek drainages and wet-season low spots, a driveway poured without proper grading and base compaction will settle unevenly or pool water after a heavy rain. The real threat to pavement here is not winter freeze-thaw, since frost rarely pushes deeper than twelve inches and stays shallow, but rather the hurricane season downpours that find every low spot and wash out a loose base. A driveway needs pitch and edge compaction to shed water fast, a properly compacted aggregate base underneath, and the right thickness of hot mix asphalt to carry the load without rutting in the summer heat.
Most Maysville lots are generous and rectangular, with a single straight driveway running from the garage to the street, which makes installation straightforward. But the soil underneath and the seasonal water table mean that grading, drainage, and base prep matter more than they do in drier climates. We have worked on gravel drives, asphalt installations, repairs, and resurfacing jobs all across the Jacksonville area and Maysville since 2016. We know the terrain, the weather patterns, and what actually holds up here.

How a Job Works in Maysville
We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (910) 526-0876, we schedule a time that works for you, and one of our crew walks your property, measures it, looks at the soil and drainage, and talks through what you need. We give you a written estimate with tonnage specifications so you know exactly what you are paying for and what is going in the ground.
Once you approve the estimate, we handle the work. For a new driveway or resurfacing, that means preparing the base, setting the pitch so water runs off, compacting everything properly, and laying the hot mix asphalt with good edge compaction so it sheds water and does not rut. If your lot has tight access or unusual drainage, we work around it. If you have an HOA or a shared driveway with a neighbor, we coordinate with you on any approvals needed before we start.
When the work is done, we clean up. You get a driveway that sheds water, holds up to the Maysville weather, and is ready to use. We walk through the finished job with you so you know what to expect as the asphalt cures over the first few months.
Driveway paving in Maysville typically starts at $6 per square foot for a new asphalt installation, and resurfacing an existing driveway runs from $4 per square foot. A small repair or pothole patch might start at $450, while a full driveway replacement on a larger lot could run $7 per square foot or more. The real cost depends on the square footage, the condition of the base underneath, how much grading and compaction your soil needs, and the thickness we recommend for your traffic and climate. Gravel driveway installation and grading, common in Maysville, starts at $950. We provide a free written estimate at your property so you see the numbers tied to your specific lot and soil.
