Paving in the Willacy County Seat

Asphalt paving in Raymondville serves the county seat of Willacy County, about 18 miles north of Combes on I-69E/US 77. Raymondville was founded in 1904 by Edward Burleson Raymond, a foreman of the El Sauz portion of the King Ranch. It had 10,236 residents and 2,983 housing units in 2020, on about 4.12 square miles at 30 feet above sea level.

Older homes and caliche

Many Raymondville properties have older asphalt or caliche drives. The Raymondville soil series, named for this area and typed in neighboring Cameron County, is a clay loam over clay that cracks up to 2 inches wide when it dries. Driveways on soil like that need a solid compacted base, so we start there on every replacement or conversion.

County business lots

As the county seat, Raymondville has offices, stores and churches with lots that see daily traffic. We patch, overlay, seal and restripe, phased so the lot stays open.

Highway frontage

Lots fronting I-69E deal with TxDOT for any new or altered highway access. City streets are handled by the City of Raymondville. We check before scheduling.
