Kermit sits at the western edge of the Permian Basin oilfield country, where wide lots, long driveways, and heavy equipment traffic grind hard on pavement year-round. The older residential blocks and the oilfield service yards around town run asphalt that takes a beating from summer heat above 100 degrees, relentless wind, and the weight of loaded water trucks and frac sand haulers moving between lease roads and equipment yards.

Midland Asphalt Paving has served Kermit and the surrounding oilfield and ranch country since 2011. We know the caliche subgrade, the drainage challenges of the Permian flats, and the rutting and oxidation that happen fast in West Texas sun. When your driveway or parking lot needs repair, resurfacing, or a complete replacement, we show up with crews who understand the ground and the climate here, and we quote the work honestly with written estimates and tonnage specs.

Asphalt Paving in Kermit (79745)

Kermit's terrain is sandy loam over hard caliche caprock, and that foundation is both an asset and a challenge. When the caliche base is compacted right, it holds asphalt well. When it is not, or when the subgrade has moved through wet-then-dry cycles, driveways settle, heave, and crack. The oilfield traffic here is heavy and relentless. Loaded water trucks, frac sand haulers, and equipment trailers grind the pavement, and summer temperatures above 100 degrees oxidize asphalt fast. Wind drives sand across every surface, and the rare but violent thunderstorms that hit the Permian Basin dump inches of rain on ground that cannot absorb it quickly, creating water pooling and edge failure at garage doors and property lines.

We have been paving in Kermit and the oilfield country around Stanton, Andrews, Garden City, and Crane since 2011. We understand the base preparation that works here, the drainage pitch that keeps water off foundations, and the thickness and material that hold up to the traffic and the heat. We are fully insured, with general liability and workers' compensation coverage for all crew work on your property.

How a Job Works in Kermit

We start with a free on-site assessment. We walk the driveway, parking lot, or yard with you, measure the area, look at the subgrade and drainage, and listen to what you have seen. We explain what is failing and why, and we propose repair, resurfacing, or replacement based on what the pavement actually needs, not what we want to sell. You get a written estimate with square footage, thickness, tonnage, and a clear price.

When the work starts, we handle the base preparation, grading, and compaction right. If the subgrade has moved or the caliche is uneven, we grade and proof-roll it so the new asphalt sits on a solid foundation. We run the paver in the heat of the day when the material flows, and we roll it to the density that lasts. Kermit lots and driveways often have tight access or heavy equipment parked nearby, and we work around that without damaging what is already there.

When we finish, we clean up all scraps and debris, and we walk through with you so you see the work done right. We leave your property clean and ready to use.

Driveway paving in Kermit typically runs from $6 per square foot for new installation, and resurfacing or overlay starts around $4 per square foot, depending on the square footage, the condition of the base, and the thickness we need to achieve. A small repair or pothole patch runs from $450 and up. A full driveway replacement, when the base is gone and patching will not hold, runs from $7 per square foot. Parking lot work and private road paving are quoted on site, because the variables are larger: the size of the lot, the traffic load, the base condition, and whether we are milling out the old asphalt or building on an existing surface. Call us at (432) 289-5378 for a free estimate. We measure, we calculate, and we give you a real number before any work begins.

Why does my driveway crack and settle near the garage in Kermit?

The caliche subgrade under Kermit and the Permian Basin shifts when it goes through wet-then-dry cycles, and expansive clay in the soil moves with it. If the original driveway was not built on a properly compacted base, or if drainage has pooled water against the subgrade, the pavement settles and cracks. We grade and compact the base right, and we pitch the driveway so water runs away from the garage and the foundation. That stops the pooling and gives you a stable surface.

We have water running toward the garage after heavy rain. Can you fix that without replacing the whole driveway?

Often, yes. If the asphalt surface is still sound but the pitch has failed, we can mill the top layer and repave it with the correct slope to shed water. If the surface is cracked and broken, resurfacing or full replacement is the right call. Call us at (432) 289-5378 and we will assess it on site. We will tell you what the ground needs and what it will cost.

What does asphalt paving cost in Kermit?

A new driveway runs from $6 per square foot, resurfacing from $4 per square foot, and a repair from $450. The real cost depends on the size, the condition of the base, how thick we need to go, and what the subgrade needs. A 500-square-foot driveway paved new might run $3,000 to $3,500. A resurfaced lot half that. We give you a written estimate with all the numbers before we start.

Does Kermit require a permit for a new driveway or driveway apron?

Permitting rules vary by municipality in the Midland area. Kermit has its own building and development standards, and the city issues permits for driveway work, especially where the driveway meets the street curb or the right-of-way. Verify the rules with the Kermit Building Department before you start. We help you navigate the permitting process, and we follow local code. Texas law also requires a utility locate through 811 before any excavation, including grading and driveway extension work.

Our HOA has rules about driveway material and extensions. Do you work with HOA approvals?

Yes. Many of the residential communities around Midland and Kermit have HOA architectural standards that govern driveway material, color, and whether extensions are allowed. You will need to verify the rules with your HOA and get approval before we start. We work with HOA requirements and we coordinate the timeline so the work fits the approval process.

Are you fully insured for work on my property?

Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. All crew work on your driveway, parking lot, or yard is covered. We can provide proof of insurance before we start.

How long does new asphalt take to cure before we can use it in Kermit?

New asphalt can handle light traffic (parked cars, foot traffic) within 24 to 48 hours in warm weather. Full cure takes about six to twelve months, depending on the heat and sun exposure. During that cure period, the asphalt is still oxidizing and hardening. Avoid heavy equipment, hot tire marks, and any sealing until the cure is complete. That is why we never recommend sealing new asphalt right away, even if someone offers it. Let the material cure first.
