Asphalt Paving in Shandon

A1 Asphalt Columbia paves and maintains asphalt driveways throughout the Shandon neighborhood of Columbia.

Shandon is one of Columbia's signature historic neighborhoods — tree-lined streets south of the University of South Carolina anchored by Devine Street, Heyward Street, and the cross streets running between Saluda Avenue and the rail line. The homes here are largely 1920s through 1950s brick ranches and bungalows, set on tight lots with mature oaks and original concrete or asphalt drives.

Driveways in Shandon present specific challenges. Mature trees push roots into older surfaces, original drives are often on their second or third overlay, and tight street access means careful staging during demo and paving. We pave with respect for the established landscaping — protecting beds, walkways, and historic walls — and we cut joints clean where new asphalt meets existing concrete aprons at the street.
