Peletier is a quiet Carteret County crossroads where long gravel driveways meet the state road, and most homes are older farmsteads and ranch houses on flat, generous lots. When those driveways fail, or when a homeowner wants to upgrade from gravel to asphalt, Jacksonville Asphalt Paving knows exactly what works here.
We've been serving Peletier (28584) and the surrounding Jacksonville area since 2016. Our team understands the sandy, loamy coastal plain soil, the seasonal wet spells that test drainage, and the heavy summer and fall rains that wash out a loose base faster than you'd expect. We show up with the right equipment, measure and estimate on site, and explain what your driveway actually needs.
Asphalt Paving in Peletier (28584)
Peletier homeowners face a specific set of challenges. The flat terrain and sandy subgrade mean that a driveway without proper pitch and compaction will settle unevenly or hold water after a heavy rain. The long hot mix season (March through November) gives us a wide working window, but the real enemy here is not winter freeze-thaw, it's hurricane season: 54 inches of rain a year, much of it in downpours that find every low spot. A driveway that sheds water fast stays sound; one that doesn't will fail at the edges, develop potholes, and eventually heave where the clay has moved beneath it.
Long driveways on rural lots also mean access matters. We bring in a paver and a roller, and we know how to stage equipment on a narrow lane without tearing up the shoulders. Our team has been doing this work in Carteret and Onslow counties long enough to read the soil, set the grade right, and compact the base so it stays put through the next big storm.

How a Job Works in Peletier
We start with a free on-site visit. We measure your driveway, look at the existing base and subgrade, check the pitch and drainage, and talk through what you want. We give you a written estimate with tonnage specs so you know exactly what you're getting, not a guess.
On the day of the work, our crew preps the base, sets the grade to shed water, compacts everything properly, and lays the hot mix asphalt with the edge compaction that keeps the perimeter from breaking down. On a long Peletier driveway, that prep work is half the job. We don't cut corners on base preparation because we know what happens when you do.
When we're done, we clean up the site, walk through the finished work with you, and answer any questions about care and maintenance. You get a driveway that will hold up to the weather and the traffic.
A new asphalt driveway in Peletier typically runs from $6 per square foot and up, depending on the size of the lot, the condition of the existing base, and how much grading or base work is needed. Resurfacing an existing driveway costs less, starting around $4 per square foot. If you have potholes, broken edges, or settled spots, we often recommend a patch or a full repair before jumping to replacement, which can save you money if the underlying base is still sound. For gravel driveways, which are common in Peletier, we offer gravel installation and grading starting at $950. The best way to know what your driveway will cost is to call us for a free estimate at (910) 526-0876. We'll measure it, assess the base and drainage, and give you a realistic price.
