Asphalt Paving in Pen Argyl, PA
The heart of the Slate Belt with its old slate quarries, where hilly streets and steep driveways make drainage and base prep do the real work. Served by DSP Paving in Northampton County.
Pen Argyl is the heart of the Slate Belt, built on a ridge above the old slate quarries that shaped the town. The streets run up and down the hills here, and the driveways follow the slope, which means drainage and base prep do more of the work than the top coat. A surface laid on soft ground on a Pen Argyl hillside will slide and rut inside a season.
Because the ground is hilly and the lots steep, we spend more time on pitch, compaction, and drainage in Pen Argyl than we do on a flat lot elsewhere. Water has to be directed off the surface and away from the foundation, and the base has to hold the grade under the weight of a parked car. Owner Dale walks the slope with you and lays out the base depth and drainage before anything gets paved.

What Pen Argyl Surfaces Need
On a steep Pen Argyl driveway, the base is everything. We grade the pitch so water runs off instead of pooling at the low spot, compact the stone base so it carries the load, and only then lay the hot-mix. The edges are cut to follow the slope cleanly, and we plan the drainage so winter freeze-thaw does not heave the surface.
For the hilly commercial lots and street-front parking in the borough, we mill and overlay, patch failed sections, and stripe so the lot reads clearly even on a slope. Standing water on a hillside lot erodes the base faster than anywhere else, so we set up the pitch first.
