Driveways for a Bedroom Community
Asphalt paving in Stonewall is mostly residential, for a town that has become a bedroom community for Shreveport. Stonewall, in northern DeSoto Parish at about 272 feet of elevation, had 1,814 residents in 2010 and 2,273 in 2020, an increase of 25.3 percent, with a 2025 estimate of 2,716. New homes on larger lots mean new driveways, and older homes on the edge of town often have gravel drives ready to pave.
US 171 and I-49
U.S. Route 171 runs through town, 19 miles north to Shreveport and 22 miles south to Mansfield. Stonewall-Frierson Road connects to I-49 at Exit 191, about 4.5 miles east. Homes and businesses on US 171 connect to a federal highway, so driveway work in that right-of-way needs a Louisiana DOTD access connection permit.
From dairy country to subdivisions
Stonewall's dairy industry began in 1886 and had 37 dairies by 1943. Much of the town was farmland until the 1960s, when it began to grow as a commuter town. Driveways built on former farm ground can sit over soft spots or old fill, so we probe the subgrade before paving.
Longer drives
On larger lots, we build long drives with a crown, supported edges and enough thickness for pickup trucks and trailers.
Paving former farm ground
Fields and pasture can hide soft spots, old stock ponds that were filled in and organic topsoil that compresses under load. On new driveways, we strip topsoil from the driveway path, probe for soft areas and build the stone base on firm ground. That step is cheap insurance against a driveway that settles in its first few years.
Costs
HomeGuide puts new asphalt driveways at about $5 to $12 or more per square foot nationally, with a 600-square-foot driveway around $3,000 to $7,200. Long drives and soft ground add to that; reusing an existing gravel base can reduce it.
