Why we serve Hollywood Park
Hollywood Park is a settled, older neighborhood, and that changes what the work usually is. Just south of us near US-281, Bitters Road, and Loop 1604, it is a small, established city of tree-lined streets where the homes and a lot of the driveways have been in place for a while. So rather than building new, we are often called to resurface, replace, or repair pavement that has simply reached the end of its life.
The ground here is transitional, between the Hill Country rock to the north and the clay flats to the east and south, so a driveway in Hollywood Park can be sitting on either, and what is under it decides how we fix it. An older slab that has cracked and heaved has been riding whatever is beneath it for years, and a straight repave without checking the base underneath just repeats the problem on a new surface.
Most of what we do here is residential and it leans toward renewal: tearing out and replacing an old driveway, resurfacing asphalt that is worn but sitting on a sound base, and pouring new concrete walks, aprons, and slabs. There is some small commercial too. Asphalt and concrete both come up, and the honest call between resurfacing and full replacement is a lot of the value we bring on an older property.

What Hollywood Park homes deal with
Old pavement fails from the top and from the bottom, and telling which is which is the whole job on an established lot. A driveway that is faded, raveling, and surface-cracked but still solid underneath is a candidate for resurfacing. One that is cracked all the way through, heaved, and pumping is telling you the base is gone, and no new surface over a dead base lasts. In Hollywood Park a lot of the driveways are old enough to be one or the other, and it is worth knowing which before spending on it.
Because the ground here is transitional, an old driveway's trouble can come from rock or from clay, and the fix differs. Over clay, seasonal movement heaves and cracks a slab that was never reinforced. Over rock and thin soil, water that was never drained undercuts the edge. When we replace an old drive we look at what is actually under it and rework the subgrade for that, so the new one is built for the ground rather than laid on the same weakness that took the last one.
The mature trees lining these streets are part of the character and part of the problem. Decades-old roots run under driveways and walks and lift them from below, which is a common reason an older Hollywood Park slab has heaved. Replacing it means dealing with the roots and the grade together, so the new concrete has room and a clean path for water, rather than setting up the same lift to happen again.
How we handle it
In Hollywood Park we lead with an honest read: resurface what is still sound, replace what is not, and never sell a new surface over a base that is gone. On a resurface we clean and prep the old asphalt and overlay it. On a replacement we tear out the old slab, look at what is under it, whether that is clay or rock, rework the subgrade, and reinforce and joint the new concrete for the ground it sits on. Near the old trees we account for the roots so the new work does not heave. We haul the old material off with our own trucks, so the job ends clean.

FAQs from Hollywood Park customers
My driveway here is old and cracked. Do I need a whole new one or can it be resurfaced?
It depends on the base, and that is exactly the call worth getting right on an older Hollywood Park property. If the surface is worn and cracked but the base under it is still solid, an overlay is the honest, lower-cost fix. If it is cracked through, heaved, and moving, the base is gone and a resurface just buys a year. We look at it and tell you straight which one it is.
The big trees on my street have lifted my driveway. What can be done?
Old roots running under a slab are one of the most common reasons a driveway in an established neighborhood like this heaves. Fixing it means replacing the lifted section and dealing with the roots and the grade together, giving the new concrete room and a clean path for water, so it does not set up the same lift again. We work with the tree rather than just paving back over the problem.
Why did my old driveway crack when my neighbor's is fine?
Hollywood Park sits on transitional ground, so one property can be over clay and another over rock, and they fail in different ways. Clay heaves and cracks an unreinforced slab as it moves with the seasons. Rock with thin soil lets water undercut an edge. When we replace a drive we check what is actually under yours and build the new one for that ground.
Do you pour concrete walks and aprons too, or only driveways?
Yes. Along with driveways we pour new concrete walks, aprons, and slabs and replace old cracked ones, for homes and the small commercial around Hollywood Park. If it is formed and poured, we handle it, and we can tie a new walk or apron into a driveway job.
