Asphalt Paving in Port Isabel, TX

Asphalt paving in Port Isabel happens at sea level, or close to it. The city sits about 6.6 feet above sea level, and more than half of its 13.80 square miles is water. Port Isabel was incorporated in 1928, sits at the mainland end of the Queen Isabella Causeway to South Padre Island, and had 5,028 residents in 2020. Hurricanes have hit hard here, including Beulah in September 1967 and Dolly on July 23, 2008.

After storms

Storm surge and days of standing water saturate the base under pavement. Weeks later, soft spots, cracks and potholes appear. We dig out wet base and rebuild it rather than patching over the top.

Visitor lots

Restaurants, shops, marinas and rentals see heavy seasonal traffic. Fresh striping, patched potholes and a dark sealed surface make a lot safer and easier to use. We work off-peak so you do not lose business days.

Seasonal homes

Port Isabel had 2,350 housing units in 2020, 23.5 percent counted as vacant, including second homes. We can schedule work while owners are away.

Drainage

With almost no elevation to work with, every inch of slope counts. We grade pavement to get water off it and toward the street or a drain.

Permits

Approaches on city streets are handled by the City of Port Isabel; state highways by TxDOT.

Costs

HomeAdvisor lists parking lot sealcoating at $0.15 to $0.30 per square foot, and HomeGuide lists restriping a 30 to 50 stall lot at $500 to $1,200. Storm repairs are priced by area after we see the damage.
