Driveline Midlothian Asphalt Paving provides asphalt resurfacing, driveway paving, and parking lot services to Kennedale, TX homeowners and businesses. We are based in the south DFW area and respond to new requests within one business day.
Kennedale is a compact Tarrant County community with a mix of homes ranging from 1960s originals to 2010s subdivisions. These are the services we see the most demand for here.
Many Kennedale driveways were laid in the 1980s and 1990s and are now at the age where the surface layer has oxidized and cracked but the base underneath is still structurally sound. Asphalt resurfacing is typically the most cost-effective solution for these driveways, giving a fresh surface without the cost of full removal and replacement.
Kennedale homes sit on Tarrant County clay soil that moves with the seasons, and a new driveway installed without proper base preparation will crack within a few years. We prep the subgrade and compact the base before any asphalt goes down so the finished driveway holds up to the local soil conditions.
Kennedale summers are hard on asphalt - the heat opens surface cracks while the dry soil pulls away underneath. Sealing those cracks right away stops water from getting into the base, especially before the heavy spring thunderstorms that hit this part of North Texas every year.
Commercial properties along the U.S. 287 corridor in Kennedale deal with daily heavy traffic on aging asphalt parking lots. We provide full lot paving and resurfacing for businesses along this corridor, with line striping included to meet ADA requirements.
Sealcoating every two to three years is the single most effective maintenance step for Kennedale asphalt surfaces. The intense summer heat and wet-dry clay cycle here oxidize unprotected asphalt faster than in cooler or more stable areas, so regular sealing protects the binder and extends surface life significantly.
Kennedale's wet spring season brings heavy rain that infiltrates unrepaired cracks and accelerates pothole formation in asphalt surfaces. Fast pothole patching prevents vehicles from being damaged and stops the compromised area from spreading to the surrounding pavement.
Kennedale is a small city in Tarrant County with a housing stock that spans about five decades of construction. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s in older sections of town have original driveways and parking surfaces that have gone through more than 40 years of North Texas clay soil movement. The shrink-swell cycle that comes with the local expansive clay does not stop - it repeats every year and gradually cracks, heaves, and destabilizes asphalt and concrete surfaces that were not designed with enough base depth or drainage allowance. A contractor who works Tarrant County regularly will size the base layer, set the drainage slope, and seal the edges in ways that account for this ongoing soil movement.
The area around U.S. Highway 287 brings commercial demands as well. Light industrial properties and retail businesses along this corridor need parking lots and driveways that handle regular truck traffic without rapid deterioration. Kennedale also sits in the active hail corridor of North Texas, where spring storms can drive granular debris into soft asphalt and accelerate surface wear. A local contractor knows when to recommend an early resurfacing to get ahead of storm damage before it reaches the base, rather than waiting until the surface has failed completely and a full tearout becomes necessary.
Our crew works throughout Kennedale regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect asphalt paving work here. Kennedale is entirely within Tarrant County, and our team is familiar with the permitting process for work that involves city streets or drainage easements in this municipality. We travel U.S. 287 on most workdays to reach jobs across the south DFW area, so logistics to Kennedale are straightforward regardless of where your property sits relative to the highway.
Kennedale sits between Fort Worth to the northwest, Arlington to the north, and Mansfield to the south - a geography that makes it easy for us to reach from our base. Dick Price Road and Kennedale Sublett Road are the local streets we navigate most often when visiting residential jobs away from the highway. For customers in neighboring Crowley, we cover that area as well, so if you have family or neighbors nearby who need the same work done, we can schedule both together.
Call or submit a request online and describe what you need. We reply to every Kennedale inquiry within one business day to set up a site visit.
We come to your property and look at the existing surface, base condition, and drainage before writing any estimate. We explain whether resurfacing or full replacement is the right call and why, so you are not guessing on cost.
We confirm the schedule the day before, arrive on time, and prep the surface before the crew begins. Residential driveways in Kennedale are typically completed in one day, and we protect your landscaping and garage entrance throughout.
After work is complete, we walk the surface with you to confirm quality and give you specific cure guidance. In summer, we recommend 72 hours before regular vehicle use so the asphalt has time to fully set in the heat.
We serve Kennedale and surrounding Tarrant County communities. No obligation - we will tell you exactly what the job involves and what it will cost before you commit.

Kennedale is a small city of roughly 10,000 to 12,000 residents in Tarrant County, sitting in the southern portion of the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area between Fort Worth, Arlington, and Mansfield. Despite being surrounded by larger cities, Kennedale has its own city government and a distinct community identity. Most of the city is residential, with detached single-family homes on lots that are typical for suburban North Texas - usually a quarter acre or less, with attached garages, concrete or asphalt driveways, and fenced backyards. U.S. Highway 287 is the main commercial corridor, carrying retail and light industrial uses along the edges of the otherwise residential city. More information about the city is available through Kennedale on Wikipedia.
The housing stock spans several decades, from original builds in the 1960s and 1970s near the older sections of town to subdivisions developed in the 1990s and 2000s closer to the city limits. Brick veneer on concrete slab is the standard construction style across nearly all of these homes, and the heavy Tarrant County clay soil affects every one of them - cracking flatwork, shifting fence posts, and slowly stressing foundations over the years. We also serve customers in Mansfield directly to the south and Crowley to the southwest, making Kennedale a natural fit within our regular service routes.
