Paving Foristell from the base up

Exit 203 off I-70 puts Highway T and Highway W right at the interstate, and the pavement near that interchange takes truck traffic every hour. We pave the lots that serve it, and we handle driveways across the town and the acreages spread out on the county roads. Base depth is the difference between the two.

The city started as Millville in 1856 and took the name Foristell in 1875, and it now straddles the St. Charles and Warren county line. Peruque Creek runs past the south side, which matters when we plan where a lot or a lane sends its water. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate and 25% off.

Driveway paving in Foristell

A drive here might be a subdivision apron or a long gravel run up to a house on a few acres. Both need soft material removed and a rock base compacted in layers before asphalt. Hot mix goes down typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups, thicker where a work truck or camper sits. Long drives can be paved in phases.

Parking lot paving in Foristell

Lots near the interchange handle trucks all day, and that sets base depth, asphalt thickness and where the heavy sections go. Smaller church and shop lots in town need the same grading discipline at a lighter build. Either way, water has to reach an inlet or a ditch rather than standing at the low corner.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Farm lanes, private drives shared by several places and the access roads to shops and storage buildings all get a crowned surface over compacted rock, with water carried away to a ditch. Chip seal works on a long lane with light use. Hot mix works where trucks run in and out daily.

General asphalt paving & repair

In a town like Foristell, general asphalt work covers a lot of ground: shop and church lots, alley aprons, repairs along a curb line, overlays on older streets and pads for equipment. The approach stays the same: fix the base, lay the hot mix, roll it tight, finish the edges.

Ground, water and winter in Foristell

Peruque Creek takes drainage off the south side, and the uplands here are loess and glacial till with clayey subsoils that swell and shrink. The county soil survey notes some of them need crushed rock added to the base before they will carry traffic. We grade for runoff first and compact the base in layers.

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

Foristell paving questions

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

Can you pave a lot that stays open to trucks?

Yes. We split the lot into sections so trucks keep a route through the site, build the heavy areas first, and time the pours around your slowest hours. Fresh asphalt needs curing time before loaded trailers, and we plan that into the schedule.

Do you work on both the St. Charles and Warren county sides?

Yes. The city line runs across both counties, and we pave driveways, lots and lanes on either side, out toward Wright City, Wentzville and the county roads between them. Estimates are free and you get 25% off.

Do I need to be home for the estimate?

It helps, because you know where water sits on the Foristell property and how the drive gets used. If you cannot be there, tell us what you want done when you call and we will work out the best way to walk the site and go over the details with you.

Do you need a permit to tie into a Foristell road?

Work inside your Foristell property line usually does not need one, but a new entrance onto a city street, a county road or a state route often does. The rules differ by road, so check with the city or county first; the owner normally pulls that permit.
