Hot-mix asphalt, laid right in Collinsville

Between the Brooks Catsup Bottle water tower on the south side and I-55/70 on the north, there is a lot of pavement in this city. We pave driveways and parking lots across Collinsville with a compacted rock base and hot-mix asphalt placed in lifts. Every driveway and lot comes down to the same basics: base, drainage and a tight surface.

Route 159 carries traffic through the center of town on Morrison Avenue and Vandalia Street. For homes, we focus on base, drainage and clean edges so a driveway sheds water and holds up to winter. For businesses, churches and offices along the main roads, we build lots for delivery trucks and heavy turning traffic. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate with 25% off.

Driveway paving in Collinsville

Driveway work in an established city varies: a narrow drive that needs widening, cracked concrete near the street, or blacktop that has lost its base. We remove what has failed, rebuild and compact the rock base, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home drive. Sloped drives get grading that sends water to the sides, not into the garage.

Parking lot paving in Collinsville

For a restaurant, shop, office or church lot on Morrison Avenue, Vandalia Street or Bluff Road, parking lot work is about traffic flow as much as asphalt. We lay out entrances and drive lanes, build the base for delivery trucks, grade to planned low points and pave in lifts. We can repave a failed lot in sections to keep the business open, or repair and seal coat one that is still sound.

Road construction & private roads

We build and repave private roads, subdivision streets and access drives for commercial and industrial sites. Each road gets a graded, compacted rock base, a crown for drainage and asphalt thick enough for the traffic it will carry. Entrances where trucks turn get extra base so the edges hold.

General asphalt paving & repair

Plenty of Collinsville pavement just needs the right repair at the right time. Full-depth patches, overlays and edge rebuilds stretch the life of what you already have. When a surface is past saving, we say so and quote the rebuild instead.

Why the base matters in Collinsville

Schoolhouse Branch drains the northwest part of the city and Canteen Creek the south, both flowing west into the Mississippi River valley. Where ground slopes toward those valleys, water moves fast; where it is flat, water sits. Clay-heavy soils common around St. Louis and freeze-thaw winters make a wet base the main cause of failure. We grade for runoff and compact rock in layers.

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.

Compacted asphaltTypically 2 to 3 in. for a car drive
Stone baseTypically 4 to 8 in., compacted
Drive on itUsually 2 to 3 days, longer in heat
First sealcoatTypically 6 to 12 months after paving

Typical ranges. Your Collinsville estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Collinsville paving questions

Straight answers for Collinsville homeowners and property managers. Anything else, call (866) 490-7680.

Do you work in the St. Clair County part of Collinsville?

Yes. Collinsville is mainly in Madison County with a portion in St. Clair County, and we serve both, along with Maryville, Caseyville, Glen Carbon, Fairview Heights and the rest of the Metro East. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.

What time of year is right for paving a driveway?

Late spring through fall is typical, because hot-mix asphalt needs warm ground and air to compact properly. Paving in cold weather is harder to do well. It also helps to finish before winter so the new surface has time to set up before the first hard freezes. Call (866) 490-7680 to get an estimate.

Do you pave in Collinsville in the winter?

Hot-mix asphalt needs warm air and warm ground to compact properly, and the plants serving Collinsville typically run from spring into late fall. Winter is a good time to get your estimate and book a spot for the season.

My drive sits lower than the street. Can that be fixed?

Often it can. A settled apron on a Collinsville drive usually means the base under it gave way. We dig out the soft material, rebuild with compacted stone, and reset the grade so water leaves the drive instead of pooling at the garage.
