Kings Grant sits on the higher, better-draining sandy ground of Wilmington's mid-century ranch belt, where original driveways are now settling and cracking after decades of use. If your driveway in 28405 is showing alligator cracks, soft spots, or a failed pitch that pools water near your garage, Wilmington Asphalt Paving has been serving this neighborhood since 2014 with honest repair and resurfacing work.
The ranch homes and original lots around Kings Grant were built on solid ground, but time and water always win. We know the soil here, the drainage patterns, and which driveways can be patched and which ones need a full resurfacing to last another twenty years. When you call us at (910) 338-1662, you get a local crew with local plates, not a travelling team with leftover asphalt and a story.
Asphalt Paving in Kings Grant (28405)
Kings Grant's mid-century ranch homes sit on sandy, well-draining ground compared to the newer subdivisions spreading into Pender and Brunswick counties. That's good news for water runoff. But it also means your original driveway, laid fifty or sixty years ago, has settled into the sand as the subgrade compacted over decades. You see it as a dip near the street, or as cracks that have grown wider every summer. The asphalt itself is still sound in most cases, which is why resurfacing or a quality overlay makes sense before you tear it out and start over.
We've worked on hundreds of driveways in Kings Grant and the surrounding Wilmington area. We measure, we look at the base, we tell you straight whether a patch will hold or whether the money belongs in a resurface. We bring our own roller and paver, we know the tight lot access on some of these older streets, and we coordinate with any HOA rules that apply to your property. We're fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation on every job.

How a Job Works in Kings Grant
Call us at (910) 338-1662 and describe what you're seeing: cracks, settling, potholes, or water running toward your foundation. We'll schedule a free on-site visit to measure your driveway, walk the perimeter, and look at the base condition. We bring a written estimate with square footage, thickness, tonnage specs, and a clear price. No surprises, no upsell.
If you move forward, we'll handle the work itself. For a resurfacing job, we mill off the failed top layer, inspect the base, repair any soft spots or drainage problems, and lay new asphalt to proper thickness and slope. For a full replacement, we remove the old asphalt, grade and prepare the subgrade, set the proper base, and pave it new. On Kings Grant's tighter lots, we manage access carefully so we're not tearing up your neighbors' property or blocking the street longer than necessary.
When we're done, the site is clean. We haul away all debris, sweep the apron and street, and walk through the job with you. New asphalt needs six to twelve months to cure fully, so we advise against any seal coating during that window. After that, keeping the surface clean and patching small cracks early will add years to the life of your driveway.
A driveway resurfacing in Kings Grant typically runs from $4 per square foot on up, depending on the size of the area, the depth of milling needed, and what we find in the base. A full replacement starts around $7 per square foot. A pothole or localized patch repair might be $450 and up. The real cost drivers are square footage, the condition of the subgrade underneath, whether we need to do grading or drainage work, and how thick we're laying the asphalt to handle your traffic and the local soil. We'll give you a written estimate with all those details spelled out. Call us at (910) 338-1662 for a free assessment of your driveway or parking lot.
