Asphalt Paving in Lewis Center, OH

Lewis Center is an unincorporated community in northwestern Orange Township, Delaware County, and asphalt paving here mostly means taking care of subdivision driveways built since 2000. The community began around 1850, when the railroad was extended to that point, and it is named for the family of William L. Lewis, who gave land for a railroad station in exchange for the naming rights. Today Lewis Center sits north of the Polaris shopping area and west of Alum Creek State Park, and Wikipedia gives its population as 30,398. We sealcoat, crack fill, resurface, repair and replace driveways, and pave small lots for churches and businesses in Lewis Center.

Driveways in their middle years

Wikipedia describes Lewis Center as a growing suburb of Columbus since 2000. That means most driveways here are somewhere between a few years and a couple of decades old. At that age, pavement is usually still structurally sound but starting to show its exposure: a faded gray surface, hairline cracks, raveling at the edges and cracks where the drive meets the garage or the street. This is when maintenance pays most. Filling cracks before winter keeps water out of the base, and a sealcoat every few years slows sun and weather damage.

When it is time for more than sealcoat

Some driveways from the early growth years now need more. Signs include a connected web of cracks in the wheel paths, a soft spot where cars park, or an apron broken by years of plowing. If the base is still firm, a resurfacing overlay gives a new surface. If the base has failed, we cut out the damaged area or replace the drive with a new compacted stone base.

Township roads and county rules

Because Lewis Center is unincorporated, there is no city building department. Roads and driveway connections are handled by the township or county, depending on the road. If your job reaches the road edge, a ditch or a culvert, we confirm which office has jurisdiction and what it requires before we schedule.

Near Alum Creek

Neighborhoods toward Alum Creek State Park include lots on lower ground where soil stays damp. Wet soil weakens the base under a driveway. On those properties we pay attention to grading, downspout discharge and base depth so water does not sit under the pavement.
