Anne Arundel County wraps around more than 500 miles of tidal shoreline, and that shoreline defines how driveways get built here. The southern end, which locals call South County, is where we live and work every day: Deale, Shady Side, Churchton, and Tracys Landing along the Bay, with the farms and horse properties of Lothian, Harwood, and Davidsonville just inland. The ground near the water is low and sandy with a high water table. A few miles west it turns to rolling clay. North across the South River are Edgewater, Mayo, and Riva, then Annapolis, the state capital, with everything from tight Eastport lots to established neighborhoods out Forest Drive and Bay Ridge Road. Beyond the Severn River are Arnold and Severna Park on the Broadneck side, and to the west the planned communities of Crofton and Odenton. A huge share of the county's housing was built between the 1950s and the 1990s, which means a huge share of its driveways are at the end of their life right now. The waterfront adds one more consideration. Land within 1,000 feet of tidal water falls in the Chesapeake Bay Critical Area, where the amount of hard surface on a lot is limited. Replacing an existing driveway is generally straightforward. Expanding one near the water deserves a call to the county permit office first, and we will help you think it through.

What we typically pour here
Driveway replacement is the most common need across the county, especially in neighborhoods from the 1960s through the 1980s. In South County we also do a lot of gravel-to-asphalt conversions, long lane work, tar and chip, and drainage correction on low waterfront lots. Around Annapolis, Crofton, and Severna Park it is replacements, widening, and sealcoating, plus parking lots for businesses, churches, marinas, and community associations.
