Midland Asphalt Paving Guide: Costs, Permits, and Timing

Midland has hot summers, cool winters with regular freezes, and a dry climate, and the City's access management policy sets residential driveway widths and curb cut spacing. This guide covers published local price ranges, Midland's driveway access rules, and how to time paving around the local weather. The contractor list above shows paving pros who serve Midland on Main Street.

What asphalt work costs in Midland

We only list numbers from published sources that give a Midland figure. All figures in this table come from HomeBlue's Midland cost guides, published in 2022, so expect current quotes to differ. Treat them as a starting point, not a quote.

Midland bids often change with base preparation, the condition of an older driveway, and whether the driveway approach at the street is part of the job. HomeBlue's sealing guide also notes that some contractors charge a $75 to $100 mobilization fee on small driveways. We did not find a sourced local figure for pothole patching alone, so ask for repair as its own line item.

City permits and the public right-of-way

Paving that stays entirely on your own lot does not touch the public right-of-way, but driveway, sidewalk, and curb work at the street does.

Access rules. Midland's Access Management Policy says the minimum width of a residential driveway throat is 10 feet, and the maximum width is tied to the size of a street-facing garage within 75 feet of the curb. Curb cuts generally sit at least 5 feet from a property line shared with a neighbor and 10 feet from an alley, unless both owners sign a notarized letter submitted with the permit application and site plan.

Permits. Midland says building permits can only be obtained by the property owner or the owner's licensed and bonded contractor. Residential applications go to permitrequests@midlandtexas.gov, and the permitting clerk is at 432-685-7390.

Midland weather and the best time to pave

NOAA's 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the Midland 4 ENE station show about 13.6 inches of rain a year. September is the wettest month at about 1.87 inches, and December is the driest at about 0.45 inches. About 6.5 inches falls from June through September.

June highs average about 95 degrees, and the station averages about 126 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter. Winters bring about 54 nights a year at freezing or colder and about 1.9 inches of snow, and January highs average about 60 degrees.

Our tip for Midland homeowners: spring and fall are the most comfortable windows for paving and sealcoating. Summer work should start early in the morning, and winter jobs need daytime temperatures warm enough for asphalt and sealcoat to cure. Watch the forecast in September, the wettest month.
