Asphalt work for Edmundson properties

Edmundson Terrace went up in 1941 as a 156-home subdivision, one of the first in St. Louis County, and those streets still set the shape of the city. Driveways on them are short, close together and heavily used. We replace and repair them, and we pave the lots serving businesses along Natural Bridge Road and Edmundson Road.

The city calls itself the front door to St. Louis Lambert International Airport, and I-70 runs along the south side of the field. Lots near that traffic take shuttle vans and delivery trucks all day, so base thickness matters more than it would on a quiet residential block. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate and 25% off.

Driveway paving in Edmundson

A 1940s subdivision drive is narrow, tight to the neighbor and usually sitting on a thin base. We saw a clean joint at the street, dig out what has pumped or softened, compact rock in layers, and lay hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Where two drives share a line, we set the grade so neither one drains onto the other.

Parking lot paving in Edmundson

Lots along Natural Bridge Road and Edmundson Road see vans, shuttles and delivery trucks, not just cars. We build the base for those, set the grade to carry water to the inlets, and rebuild the entrances where turning tires shove the surface. Sound sections can get repairs, crack filling and seal coating instead of full replacement.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Service drives behind businesses, apartment access lanes and the loops through older blocks all wear at the turns and the entrances. We rebuild those spots with extra base, then overlay the runs that are still structurally sound, and we keep at least one way in and out open while we work.

General asphalt paving & repair

Plenty of Edmundson 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 Edmundson

Airport-area ground is flat, which means water leaves slowly unless the pavement is graded to move it. St. Louis County loess uplands need enough base material plus ditches and culverts to resist low strength and frost action, according to the county soil survey. We compact rock in layers and set a grade that drains.

Before you sign anything, get the base depth and the compacted asphalt thickness on paper. Two bids that look far apart are often just two different pavements.

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 Edmundson estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Edmundson paving questions

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

Can you pave a small lot on a tight site?

Yes. Small, tight lots are common here. We size the equipment to the space, plan where material stages, and work in sections so access stays open. Edges and entrances get extra base, because that is where a small lot usually fails first.

Do you handle just the apron where my drive meets the street?

Yes. Aprons take the most abuse and often fail before the rest of the drive. We saw a clean joint, rebuild the base, and tie the new asphalt into both the street and your existing drive so water does not sit at the seam.

Should I sealcoat my new driveway right away?

No. Fresh asphalt in Edmundson 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.

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

Often it can. A settled apron on a Edmundson 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.
