Pooler's fast-growing subdivisions west of Savannah sit on fresh sandy base and newer lots, which means your driveway's foundation matters as much as the asphalt on top. Savannah Asphalt Paving has been serving Pooler and the surrounding area since 2015, and we know exactly what holds up on this ground and what doesn't.
When homeowners in ZIP 31322 need a new driveway, a repair that actually lasts, or a parking lot that sheds water the way it should, they call us. We're a local shop with a Savannah address and local experience. We show up with written estimates and tonnage specs, we measure twice, and we explain what your property needs before we quote the work.
Asphalt Paving in Pooler (31322)
Pooler's newer subdivisions rest on sandy soil that drains fast at the surface but softens quickly when the water table rises during summer storms. That means the base under your driveway has to be proof-rolled and compacted properly, or you'll see rutting and settlement within a year or two. The asphalt itself has to pitch sharply enough to shed water away from your garage and foundation, because standing water is what kills a drive faster than anything else in our climate. There's no frost heave to worry about here, but there is plenty of rain, and the near-daily afternoon thunderstorms of a long, humid summer will find every weakness in drainage and base preparation.
We've paved and repaired driveways, parking lots, and private roads across Chatham and Bryan counties since 2015. We know the soil conditions in Pooler, the HOA rules that govern many of the subdivisions here, and the permit requirements that the City of Pooler enforces. We work with insured crews and we leave your property clean.

How a Job Works in Pooler
We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (912) 465-2393 or request an estimate online, and one of our team comes out to measure your driveway or lot, look at the existing surface and base, check the drainage and pitch, and ask about what you've seen go wrong. We take photos, note the square footage, and listen to what matters to you. Then we send you a written estimate with the work described, the tonnage or square footage, and a clear price.
When you're ready, we schedule the work and show up with the equipment we need. For most Pooler jobs that's a paver and a roller, plus a dump truck for haul-off if we're removing old asphalt or milling. We coordinate with your HOA if required, and we respect property lines and neighbor access. The work itself takes a day or two for a typical residential driveway, longer for a parking lot or a private road. We clean up as we go and do a final walkthrough with you before we leave.
New asphalt needs time to cure and harden. We recommend you stay off it for at least 24 hours, and you should not seal it for six to twelve months while it sets fully. That patience pays off in a drive that lasts.
Driveway paving in Pooler typically runs from $6 per square foot for a straightforward install on good base, up to $7 per square foot for a full replacement where we're removing old asphalt and rebuilding the base. A 500-square-foot drive runs roughly $3,000 to $3,500 installed. Resurfacing an existing drive costs less, starting around $4 per square foot, because we're not replacing the base. Repairs like pothole patching or edge work start at $450 and up, depending on the scope. The real cost drivers are square footage, the condition of the existing base, how much base work we have to do, and whether we're hauling material off site. We give you a written estimate before we start, and the price on that estimate is the price you pay. Call us at (912) 465-2393 for a free estimate in Pooler.
