Keeping Eastwood Driveways in Shape
Asphalt paving in Eastwood is close to home work: driveways, parking pads and the occasional church or small business lot. Eastwood is an unincorporated census-designated place in Bossier Parish, about 6.35 square miles at 246 feet of elevation, bordered by Red Chute to the west and Haughton to the southeast. Its population grew from 2,987 in 1990 to 4,390 in 2020.
Upkeep before replacement
For many Eastwood homes, the best value is maintenance done on time. Filling cracks before water gets under the surface, sealing every few years, and fixing potholes while they are small can add years to a driveway. When the damage has spread, we will tell you that replacement is the better investment.
Slightly higher ground
At about 246 feet, Eastwood sits a little higher than the river lowlands closer to Bossier City, but much of it is still flat. Flat driveways need a deliberate slope to move water off; without it, puddles sit on the surface and seep into cracks.
Road access
US 80/79 runs east-west through the middle of Eastwood, and I-20 forms the southern edge without direct access. Homes that front US 80 connect to a federal highway, and driveway work in that right-of-way falls under Louisiana DOTD's access connection permit. Most other streets are parish roads.
Schools and traffic
Eastwood is served by Haughton schools, and school traffic makes for busy mornings on the main roads. We schedule driveway work so you can still get in and out when you need to.
What a maintenance plan looks like
For a driveway that is still sound, a simple plan keeps it that way: fill cracks each fall before cold snaps open them, reseal every few years once the surface turns gray, and patch any pothole while it is small. HomeGuide puts driveway sealing at about $1 to $2 per square foot and crack filling at $0.50 to $3 per linear foot, far less than a rebuild.
When it is time to rebuild
If more than a third of the surface is cracked in a web pattern, or there are spots that move underfoot, the base has failed. At that point, sealing and patching are money spent on a surface that will keep breaking. We will tell you honestly which side of that line your driveway is on.

Eastwood Questions
Is sealing worth it on an older driveway?
If the base is still solid, yes. Sealing and crack filling slow the damage. If the driveway is breaking apart, sealing will not help.
Can you make my driveway drain better?
Yes. When we rebuild a driveway we set the slope to move water to the street or ditch.
Do you work on parish roads in Eastwood?
We pave driveways up to the road and check parish or DOTD requirements for any work in the right-of-way.
How often should I seal my Eastwood driveway?
Every few years once it has cured. HomeGuide gives a range of 2 to 10 years depending on the product and conditions; strong sun pushes toward the shorter end.
