Serving Palmerton
Driveway paving for Palmerton's mountain-base streets
Palmerton sits in a narrow valley between Blue Mountain and the Lehigh River, a former zinc-smelting company town with a tidy borough grid built into sloped terrain where the Appalachian Trail crosses just above the rooftops.
Properties closer to the mountain often deal with more runoff and steeper grades than the rest of the Lehigh Valley. Larry Diehl evaluates slope and drainage on every Palmerton estimate before recommending resurfacing, patching, or a full rebuild.

Paving in Palmerton: Mountain-Base Notes
Palmerton's location at the base of Blue Mountain means properties on the north side of the borough see more runoff during heavy rain than flatter Lehigh Valley towns, and the older company-town grid has narrower streets than newer construction.
We grade Palmerton driveways to move mountain runoff away from foundations and garages, and evaluate whether narrower, older borough lots need widening as part of a resurfacing project.

Yes. Grading and drainage correction for mountain runoff is common work for us in Palmerton. Larry Diehl assesses where the water is coming from and designs the driveway grade to move it away from your home.

In the Lehigh Valley, asphalt goes down in the warmer months — usually spring through fall — for proper compaction. Sealcoating and patching can often be scheduled later in the season.
