Asphalt Driveway Paving in Lothian, MD
Horse farms, tobacco barns, and long private lanes. Lothian is rural South County at its best, and it needs a paver who knows how to build on farm ground.
Free Estimate: (410) 212-8084Lothian, MD
Lothian covers a wide stretch of rural southern Anne Arundel County around Solomons Island Road, Southern Maryland Boulevard, and Sands Road, reaching over toward the Patuxent River. This is horse country and farm country. Properties are measured in acres, old tobacco barns still stand in the fields, and many homes sit far back from the road on private lanes. The soil here is heavier than along the Bay, with more clay in it, and it rolls. That combination creates two classic problems. Clay holds water and turns soft under load, so a lane with too little stone under it ruts and pumps mud up through the surface. And on slopes, stormwater picks up speed and cuts channels along any lane that was not crowned and ditched. Both are base and grading problems, not surface problems, and both get solved before any asphalt or tar goes down. Lothian also has pockets of conventional subdivision housing, where the work looks more like a standard driveway replacement.

Common projects in Lothian
Lothian properties usually need long driveway and farm lane work: regrading, new stone base, tar and chip, or full asphalt. We also build parking and turnaround areas for horse trailers and equipment, barn and garage aprons, and drainage corrections on sloped lanes. In the subdivisions, it is driveway replacement and sealcoating.

Lothian paving FAQs
Can a paved lane handle horse trailers and farm equipment?
Yes, when it is designed for that weight. Heavier traffic calls for a deeper stone base and thicker asphalt, particularly at the entrance and anywhere vehicles turn. Tell us what drives on it and we will build the section to match.
