Driveways for a Growing Town
Asphalt paving in Haughton keeps pace with growth. Haughton, about 15 miles east of Bossier City at roughly 230 feet of elevation, had 4,539 residents in 2020, up 31.4 percent from 2010 and up from 2,792 in 2000. A town that grows that quickly builds a lot of new homes, and new homes need driveways: some paved by the builder, many left as gravel or short concrete pads that owners want to extend.
New-construction driveways
On new lots, the ground has often been disturbed by grading and utility trenches. Trench lines that were not compacted well settle under a driveway later. When we pave a new drive, we check for soft fill across the driveway path and compact or replace it before adding stone.
Extending and widening
A common Haughton project is widening a single driveway or adding a parking pad for a truck, boat or trailer. Those additions need a full base under them, and a clean joint where new asphalt meets old, so the seam does not open into a crack.
Access from I-20
Interstate 20 touches the northwest corner of town, reached from Exit 33 at Elm Street. That access makes Haughton practical for commuters, and it brings commercial traffic to lots near the interchange. We pave and repair small commercial lots, church lots and school-area parking.
Rural edges
Outside the town core, properties get larger and drives get longer. On those, edges take the abuse, so we compact past the paved width and backfill along the sides.
Commuter traffic and wear
With I-20 access and Haughton schools drawing families, most driveways here carry two or three vehicles a day, often including a full-size pickup. Turning wheels on soft summer asphalt scuffs and ruts thin surfaces, so we pave residential drives at a full compacted thickness and recommend sealing once the asphalt cures.
What newer subdivisions need
In newer neighborhoods, many homes came with a short concrete apron and a gravel extension, or a narrow builder driveway. Common upgrades are a wider parking area, a side pad for a boat or trailer and a paved path to a detached garage or shop. Each gets its own base, and we tie it into the existing drive cleanly.

Haughton Questions
Can you widen my Haughton driveway for a trailer?
Yes. We build a full base under the new section and tie it to the existing asphalt with a clean joint.
My new-build driveway already has cracks. Why?
Often a utility trench or loose fill under the driveway settled. The fix is to remove and recompact that section before patching.
Do you pave small church or business lots in Haughton?
Yes, including repairs, sealcoating and striping.
How long does a Haughton driveway take?
Most residential jobs take one to three days, depending on removal and base work. Rain can push base work back a day or two.
Do you seal new subdivision driveways?
Yes, once the asphalt has cured, usually 3 to 6 months after paving according to HomeGuide.
