Your Frontenac paving crew

One-acre lots and mature trees describe most of this city, and the driveways that come with them are long, curved and shaded. They also carry more traffic than people expect, between household cars, deliveries and service vehicles. We rebuild and repave those drives, and we pave the lots serving offices and businesses near Lindbergh.

I-64, which everyone here calls Highway 40, runs through the city with exits at Spoede Road and Lindbergh Boulevard. The city began as a village in 1947 and incorporated in 1950, so much of the original pavement has been replaced more than once. We check what is under the surface before quoting.

Driveway paving in Frontenac

A long drive through mature trees has two problems: shade that keeps the surface damp and roots that lift the edges. We cut roots inside the drive footprint, rebuild the base where the ground has gone soft, and place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and light trucks. Curves and turnarounds get extra base, since that is where tires scuff hardest.

Parking lot paving in Frontenac

Office and retail lots near Lindbergh and Clayton Road take delivery trucks and trash trucks weekly, and those decide base depth. We grade so water reaches the inlets rather than standing at the back row, rebuild the drive aisles where trucks turn, and stage the paving so customers and staff keep a way in throughout the job.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Private lanes serving several houses, church and school access drives and the service roads behind a building all wear first at the entrance and the turns. We rebuild those with extra base, tie them cleanly into the public street, and overlay the straight runs where the structure underneath is still sound.

General asphalt paving & repair

Not every job is a full rebuild. On older Frontenac pavement we often start with the smaller fixes: cutting out a failed patch, resetting a sunken section by the garage, or putting a fresh overlay over a surface whose base is still sound. We tell you which of those your asphalt actually needs, and we put it in writing.

Ground, water and winter in Frontenac

Rolling hills and mature trees mean runoff has somewhere to go, but it also means slopes that cut and low spots that hold. The county soil survey calls for adequate base plus side ditches and culverts to prevent damage from low strength and frost action on these loess uplands. We grade for that and compact rock 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 Frontenac estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Frontenac paving questions

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

Will paving hurt my mature trees?

It can, if roots are cut carelessly or the grade changes how water reaches them. We keep excavation inside the drive footprint, cut cleanly, and avoid raising or lowering grade around trunks where possible. We walk the drive with you during the free estimate.

Can a long curved driveway be replaced in one day?

Sometimes, if the base is sound and the weather holds. More often it runs two or three days: one for removal and base work, one for paving. We give you the schedule up front and keep at least one parking spot usable where we can.

How long does a new asphalt driveway take in Frontenac?

Most Frontenac 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.

Do you handle alley aprons and shared drives?

Yes. Shared drives and alley aprons in Frontenac get the same treatment as any other job: a firm base, a clean saw-cut edge where new meets old, and a surface shaped to move water. When a drive is shared, it helps if every owner sees the estimate.
