Main routes: I-64, Route 159, and Route 161
A retail city puts a great deal of asphalt in one place. Between St. Clair Square, the corridors feeding it and the park-and-ride at the MetroLink station on Route 161, there are drive aisles here that see more traffic in a week than a rural lane sees in a year. We pave driveways and parking lots across the city and build each one for the load it carries.
I-64 runs with Route 50 through town, with an interchange at Route 159 at Exit 12, and Route 161 begins at St. Clair Avenue and runs east on parts of old Route 50. Homes sit on deep loess upland east of the river bluffs. Every job gets compacted rock, planned drainage and hot-mix asphalt rolled dense.

Subdivision drives here sit on silty upland soil that packs well but holds water where the grade is flat. We shoot grades first and set a consistent fall away from the house and garage, then build the base: topsoil off, soft areas out, rock compacted in lifts. Hot-mix asphalt is typically placed 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Edges get rolled clean so they hold up to mowers and tires.
Driveway pavingRetail, office, church and apartment lots all fail in the same places first: entrances, drive aisles, dumpster pads and the lanes delivery trucks use. Those get a deeper base and more asphalt. Stalls get a lighter section. We grade to defined outlets and keep the flow away from storefronts. Sound lots can often be crack filled, patched and seal coated instead of replaced.
Parking lot pavingPrivate roads, apartment complex streets and commercial access drives need a heavier build than a driveway and careful attention where they tie into Route 159, Route 161 or a city street. We crown the surface, handle shoulder and curb drainage, and thicken the base wherever loaded trucks turn, stop or back up.
Road constructionGeneral asphalt work in Fairview Heights covers the jobs that do not fit neatly in a box: alley aprons, walkways, basketball pads, repairs where a utility trench was cut, and overlays that bring a tired surface back. Each one gets the same treatment: a clean edge, a sound base and hot mix rolled tight.
Asphalt paving
The uplands east of the Mississippi bluffs are blanketed in windblown loess, deep enough near the bluff line to run dozens of feet thick. Loess compacts well when it is dry and turns unstable when it is saturated, so keeping water out of the base is the whole game. We compact rock in lifts, proof the subgrade and grade every surface to drain.
The part of the job you can see is the last two inches. Ask what is underneath, how it will be compacted, and which way the finished surface drains.
Typical ranges. Your Fairview Heights estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

It depends on the size and how the work is phased. New hot-mix asphalt has to cool before traffic uses it, usually a matter of hours, not days. Larger lots are often paved in sections so part stays open. We lay out the phasing at the estimate so you know what is closed when.
On a lot that is structurally sound, yes. Seal coating protects the surface from water and oxidation and keeps the striping looking sharp. It does not fix base failure, so ruts and alligator cracking get repaired first. New asphalt should cure for months before sealer goes on.
Hot-mix asphalt needs warm air and warm ground to compact properly, and the plants serving Fairview Heights typically run from spring into late fall. Winter is a good time to get your estimate and book a spot for the season.
No. Paving a Fairview Heights driveway happens on your property; trucks stage at the curb for the day and the street stays open. If an apron tie-in means a short blocked stretch at the street, we tell you which hours that falls in.
We pave all around Fairview Heights, across St. Clair County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
