Burnet's small-town streets and ranch-style subdivisions sit on the same shallow limestone and reactive clay that runs through all of Bell County, and that clay is the whole story when it comes to your driveway. The wet-dry cycle between our hot, dry summers and heavy spring rains heaves and cracks asphalt driveways faster than frost ever could up north, especially where the base was never built to handle that movement.
Killeen Asphalt Paving has been serving Burnet and the surrounding area since 2016. We know the soil, the lot layouts, and the specific problems that show up on driveways and parking lots here. When you call us, you get a local crew with local equipment, not a traveling outfit with out-of-state plates and a story about leftover asphalt from a job nearby.
Asphalt Paving in Burnet (78611)
Driveways in Burnet sit on Purves and Denton clay soils that swell when wet and shrink when dry. That movement cracks and settles asphalt from underneath, and it shows first at the apron where your driveway meets the street, where the base support is thinnest. You'll see alligator cracking spreading from the edges, rutting in the wheel paths after a hot summer, and water pooling at the garage or running toward the foundation after a heavy rain. A single-car or double-wide driveway on a typical Burnet lot can fail in the base long before the surface gives out, which is why a patch holds for a while but the real money often belongs in resurfacing or replacement.
We've repaired pothole damage from storm runoff, reset driveways that have heaved, and resurfaced lots where the pitch has failed and water no longer sheds. We bring a crew that understands the local subgrade, knows how to set a base on clay that moves, and can navigate the tight lot access and HOA rules that come with Burnet subdivisions.

How a Job Works in Burnet
We start with a free on-site assessment. We measure your driveway or lot, look at the base condition, check the drainage and pitch, and talk through what's actually failed and what will hold a repair. We give you a written estimate with tonnage specs and a clear scope, so you know exactly what you're paying for and why. We never sell with fear, and we're honest about whether a patch makes sense or whether the money belongs in resurfacing.
When we do the work, we handle the details that matter in Burnet. If your driveway apron sits in the right-of-way, we help you navigate local permitting with the City of Burnet. If you're in an HOA, we coordinate with your architectural review so there are no surprises. We mill and remove the old surface if needed, prepare and proof-roll the base, and lay new hot mix asphalt to the thickness your job needs. We leave your property clean and walk through the finished work with you before we go.
Driveway paving in Burnet typically starts at $6 per square foot for new installation, and resurfacing runs from $4 per square foot, depending on the square footage, the base condition, and the thickness we need to lay. A pothole repair or small patch job starts at $450. A full driveway replacement, where the base is gone and we mill out the old surface and build up a new one, runs from $7 per square foot. Parking lot work and private road paving are quoted on site. The real cost drivers are the size of the job, the condition of the subgrade, whether we need to bring in a roller and how much material goes down. Call us at (254) 312-5951 for a free estimate. We'll measure your job, tell you what needs to happen, and give you a price that makes sense.
