Main routes: Highway 79 and Highway H
A village this size still has plenty of pavement: home drives, parking lots, shop yards and lanes, and each one lives or dies on drainage. Annada sits on Highway 79 in eastern Pike County, a mile west of the Clarence Cannon National Wildlife Refuge headquarters, reached by County Road 206. Ground near the river bottoms stays wet longer than upland ground, and pavement built on a wet base will not last.
The village name combines Ann and Ada, daughters of a pioneer resident. We build the ordinary way, which is the right way: soft material removed, rock base compacted in layers, hot-mix asphalt placed and rolled dense, everything graded so water runs off instead of sitting. Highway H heads toward Paynesville. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
A drive out here carries pickups, trailers and sometimes a tractor, so we size the base for the heaviest thing that uses it. Typical home drives get 2 to 3 inches of compacted hot-mix over compacted rock, with more thickness where trucks turn or park. Long lanes can be paved in phases. We crown the surface so rain leaves it instead of soaking into the edges.
Driveway pavingThere is no commercial strip out here, so lot work tends to be a church, a shop pad, a farm yard or a small equipment area. Those get the same treatment: base built for the loads that use it, grade set to drain, edges rolled tight. Seal coating suits an older asphalt yard that is still in sound shape.
Parking lot pavingField roads, farm lanes and shared private drives take up a lot of ground in eastern Pike County. We build and rebuild them with compacted rock, a crown that sheds water and asphalt where traffic earns it. Chip seal fits long, lightly used lanes. Entrances off Highway 79 get extra base where tires turn.
Road constructionOut around Annada, general asphalt work often means shop pads, machine-shed aprons, turnarounds for trucks and trailers, and the stretch of lane where gravel keeps washing out. We build those with drainage and heavy tires in mind.
Asphalt paving
Ground near the Mississippi floodplain holds water, and the clay-heavy soils common around the region swell and shrink with it. Freeze-thaw winters then lift anything sitting on a wet base. The fix is not thicker asphalt. It is drainage: grade away from the surface, ditch where needed, and compact clean rock before paving.
Bids are only comparable when they spell out the same things: base depth, compacted thickness, how edges are finished, and where water is meant to go. Ask for those before you pick a number.
Typical ranges. Your Annada estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Yes, if it is built for it. On ground that holds water, we cut the soft material out, bring in clean rock and compact it in layers, then set the grade so runoff has somewhere to go. Skipping that step is why pavement on wet subgrade breaks up early.
Yes. We pave in Annada and the country around it, including Paynesville up Highway H, and on toward Clarksville and Elsberry. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off. We will also tell you plainly when a repair makes more sense than a repave.
No. Fresh asphalt in Annada needs time to cure before it is sealed, typically several months and often up to a year. Sealing too early can trap oils in the pavement. After that, sealing every few years helps it resist water, sun and salt.
Not usually. If the subgrade under a Annada lane is soft, stone alone just sinks into it. The fix is digging out the soft spots and rebuilding in compacted layers so the base has something to sit on.
We pave all around Annada, across Pike County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
