Paving Inland in Jim Wells County
Paving contractors in Orange Grove work on higher, drier ground than the coast. Orange Grove sits at about 194 feet above sea level in northeastern Jim Wells County, on State Highway 359. The 2020 census counted 1,165 residents on about 1.1 square miles, with 526 housing units, 13.5 percent of them vacant. FM 624 connects it east to Calallen, about 20 miles away.
In-town and rural drives
In town, driveways are mostly short and straightforward. Outside town, longer drives across farm and ranch land are common, often with gravel or caliche that ruts after rain. We check the existing material and quote either a conversion to asphalt over a compacted base or a full new build, depending on what we find.
Drainage on higher ground
Being inland and higher does not mean water is never a problem. Heavy rain on flat ground still runs along ditches and across driveways, so we set slopes and check culverts on every job.
Small lots
Shops, churches and offices in Orange Grove usually have small lots that need patching, sealing and restriping. We price those in sections so you can handle the most urgent work first.
Highway frontage
SH 359 frontage falls under TxDOT for entrance and culvert work. On city streets, the City of Orange Grove sets the rules. We confirm before scheduling.
Scheduling
We pair Orange Grove jobs with work in Alice and Calallen when we can to keep travel costs fair.

Orange Grove Questions
Can you pave my caliche drive outside town?
Often, yes, if the caliche is thick and firm. We check, rebuild weak spots and pave over a compacted base.
Who handles permits on SH 359?
TxDOT handles entrances and culverts on the state highway; the city handles its own streets.
Do you do small lot repairs?
Yes. We price them in sections so you can start with the most urgent areas.
How long does a gravel conversion take?
Most residential conversions take a day or two of work once the base is prepared, plus time before you can drive on the new asphalt.
Do you check the culvert?
Yes. A blocked or undersized culvert sends water across the drive, so we check it on every estimate.
