Paving in a Highway Town

Paving contractors in Bishop work in a town on the main road south of Corpus Christi. Bishop sits on U.S. Highway 77, also signed as Interstate 69E, at its junction with FM 70 in Nueces County. It had 2,731 residents in 1950, 3,722 in 1960 and 3,174 at the 2020 census, so much of the town's housing dates from the mid-century decades.

Older driveways

The 2020 census counted 1,311 housing units in Bishop, 14.4 percent vacant. Many driveways are original or have been patched over the years. We check the base before recommending anything; a sound base can take an overlay, while a failed one needs to be rebuilt.

Roadside businesses

Businesses along the highway corridor see travelers, delivery trucks and farm traffic. Entrances take the heaviest loads, and they are often the first part of a lot to fail. We build entrances thicker and check whether the frontage falls under TxDOT or the city before planning any work at the road.

Ground and drainage

Bishop sits at about 59 feet above sea level on flat farmland. Roadside ditches carry most of the storm water, so the culvert under each driveway matters. If it is blocked or too small, water backs up across the driveway entrance and erodes the edges.

Small lots and churches

For church and community lots we offer crack sealing, patching, sealcoating and restriping, scheduled around services and events.

Permits

The City of Bishop handles its own streets; U.S. 77 frontage is TxDOT. We confirm which applies before working at the road.

Bishop Questions

Who approves an entrance on US 77?

TxDOT, because U.S. 77 is a state highway. City streets go through the City of Bishop.

Why does my driveway entrance flood?

Usually a blocked or undersized ditch culvert. We check it as part of the estimate.

Can an old driveway be overlaid?

If the base is sound, yes. If it is soft, the old cracks will reflect through, so we check first.

How long does a sealcoat last?

Published guidance ranges from 2 to 10 years depending on the sealer and climate. Strong sun shortens that, so we check yearly and reseal when needed.

Can you pave in the summer?

Yes. We pave early in the day so the asphalt can be compacted before the hottest hours.
