Main routes: I-270 and Highway 367
Postwar subdivisions fill this city, which means thousands of driveways of about the same age reaching the end of about the same life. Parking lots at the churches, schools and shops along Chambers Road and Bellefontaine Road are in the same position. Old base, tired surface, water with nowhere to go.
Bellefontaine Road follows the old trail that linked Fort Belle Fontaine to St. Louis, and the General Daniel Bissell House, built around 1819, still stands on it as a county museum. I-270 runs along the north edge, Highway 367 along the west. We rebuild base, place hot-mix asphalt in lifts and grade every surface to drain.

A 1950s driveway was built for one car and a thinner base than today's vehicles deserve. We take out the failed surface, rebuild the base where it has gone soft, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted. Widening for a second vehicle, adding a parking pad, or reshaping a drive that dumps water toward the house all fit into the same job.
Driveway pavingChurch, school, retail and apartment lots here take buses, delivery trucks and trash trucks on pavement that was sized for cars. We thicken the entrances, drive aisles and dumpster pads, grade the lot so water reaches inlets, and rebuild the areas that have already broken through. Sound sections can be crack sealed and seal coated.
Parking lot pavingSubdivision streets, apartment access drives and private roads all take the same beating in the wheel paths. We rebuild those with compacted base, set a crown, and firm the edges so runoff does not undercut them. The entrance from a busy arterial gets extra base, since that is where trucks load the pavement hardest.
Road constructionGeneral asphalt paving in Bellefontaine Neighbors means matching the fix to the problem. Surface cracks on a firm base call for an overlay. Soft, sinking spots call for digging out and rebuilding the base first. We show you the difference on the walk-through.
Asphalt paving
This part of north county is loess upland, and the county soil survey says local roads and streets on many of these soils need adequate base material plus ditches and culverts to prevent damage from low strength and frost action. Clay subsoil holds water and winter freezes it. Grading and compaction are the defense.
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.

Yes, and it usually should be. We split the lot so services and deliveries keep working, do demolition, base and paving on one section, then move. Fresh asphalt needs time before traffic, so the sequence gets planned first. Estimates are free and come with 25% off.
Seal coat protects the surface from water, sun and fuel drips. It is not structural, so it will not fix a failed base or rutting. It is usually applied months after new asphalt has cured, not days, and works best on pavement that is still tight and free of cracks.
Most Bellefontaine Neighbors driveways are paved in one to two days once the base is ready, with more time if the old surface has to come out or the base needs rebuilding. You can usually walk on it the same day and drive on it after a few days, depending on the weather.
We keep trucks on the drive where we can and flag anything close to the work on your Bellefontaine Neighbors property. Mark sprinkler heads and invisible fence lines before we start, and we will work around them. Minor lawn scuffing along the edge is normal and easy to repair.
