King sits in the Stokes County foothills where long sloped driveways run down toward Pilot Mountain, and red Piedmont clay soil moves with every freeze and thaw cycle. If your driveway is heaving, cracking, or shedding edges on a steep grade, you're not alone, and you've found the right local paving shop.
Winston-Salem Asphalt Paving has served King and the surrounding Winston-Salem area since 2016. We know the terrain here, the drainage challenges that come with hilly lots, and the way clay subgrades shift when they're not built right the first time. We're fully insured, we measure every job on site, and we give you a written estimate with tonnage specs so you know what you're paying for.
Asphalt Paving in King (27021)
King's driveway and parking lot challenges are real and specific to this landscape. Long sloped drives toward the foothills need proper crown and pitch to shed water away from the garage and foundation. Steep grades demand a stable base and the right thickness of asphalt, because a weak subgrade on a hill will heave and settle as the clay moves with the seasons. Winter freeze-thaw cycles are hard on thin asphalt. Spring thaw brings water to the surface, and if the pitch has failed or the base is gone, that water runs at the foundation instead of away from it.
Potholes and broken pavement edges are common in King, especially on private roads and long driveways where traffic is concentrated and the base was never reinforced. Snowplow wear and the weight of vehicles on a narrow drive compound the problem. We've patched and resurfaced driveways all through this area, and we understand the access constraints of hilly lots, the drainage work that matters, and the thickness and base prep that will hold on a grade.
Our team has been doing this work in King and throughout the Winston-Salem area for over eight years. We show up with insured crews, we pull the measurements and specs on site, and we explain what needs to happen and why.

How a Job Works in King
You call us at (336) 733-9623 or reach out online, and we schedule a free on-site visit. We walk the driveway or lot with you, measure the area, look at the base and drainage, and talk through what you've seen (cracking, settling, water pooling, edge failure). We ask about access, slope, and any HOA rules or local permit requirements. Then we give you a written estimate with the square footage, the work scope, and the tonnage specs so there's no guessing.
When you're ready, our crew arrives with the equipment the job needs. On a steep King driveway, we may need to mill the old surface, grade and compact the base, and install new asphalt in lifts so it bonds properly and holds on the slope. On a parking lot or a long private road, we work the same way: base prep, proper thickness, and compaction that matters. We stay coordinated with any HOA or local permitting, and we schedule around your access needs.
When we're done, we clean up the site, haul off the debris, and walk through the finished work with you. You leave with a driveway or lot that sheds water the right way and will hold for years.
Driveway paving in King typically starts around $6 per square foot for a new installation, and resurfacing (overlay) runs from $4 per square foot. A straightforward repair or pothole patch starts at $450. The real cost depends on the square footage, the condition of the base, how much grading or base prep the slope requires, and the thickness we need to build in for the grade and the traffic. A long sloped drive with a weak subgrade will cost more than a short flat driveway because the base work takes longer and we need more material. A parking lot or private road is quoted on site after we measure and assess the base condition. Call us at (336) 733-9623 for a free estimate, and we'll give you a firm number in writing with tonnage and specs.
