Blacktop that holds up in Glasgow Village

The whole community went up as a planned subdivision in the early 1950s, built in numbered sections with streets named after Scottish places. Driveways from that era are past their service life. We repave them, and we pave parking lots for the churches, apartment properties and small businesses nearby.

I-270 runs just north before it crosses the Mississippi at the Chain of Rocks, so getting equipment in is simple. On a 1950s drive, what is under the asphalt matters more than what is on top. We check the base, rebuild where it has gone soft and place hot mix in lifts. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.

Driveway paving in Glasgow Village

Subdivision drives here are typically single-width and run from the street to a garage or carport. After seventy-odd years, the usual problems are a sunken apron at the street, cracking down the middle and water standing at the garage. We can remove and replace, or overlay when the base is still sound. New asphalt is usually 2 to 3 inches compacted over rock.

Parking lot paving in Glasgow Village

Apartment lots, church lots and small business lots in north St. Louis County take steady car traffic and the occasional delivery truck. We size the base for the heaviest load, slope the surface to planned low points and lay asphalt in lifts. The work can be phased so residents and customers keep a place to park.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Shared drives, rear access lanes and private streets serving apartment buildings need what a public street needs: a compacted base, a crown or cross slope, and edges that hold. We repave them and rebuild sections where the subgrade has failed rather than patching the same spot a second time.

General asphalt paving & repair

General asphalt work in Glasgow Village 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.

Why the base matters in Glasgow Village

Upland soil here formed in loess, and the St. Louis County soil survey says local streets on these soils need adequate base material plus side ditches and culverts to prevent damage from low strength and frost action. That is the job in one sentence: drainage and base first, asphalt second.

A cheap bid usually gets cheap somewhere you cannot see. Ask what depth of stone goes down, how thick the asphalt is after rolling, and who fixes it if water still stands.

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

Glasgow Village paving questions

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

Can a 1950s driveway be overlaid instead of replaced?

Sometimes. If the base is solid and the cracking is surface level, an overlay over a cleaned and prepared surface works well. If the drive has soft areas or deep alligator cracking, an overlay will fail early. We tell you which one you have at the estimate.

Do you pave apartment and church lots in north St. Louis County?

Yes. We pave and repave lots for apartment properties, churches, shops and offices across north St. Louis County, including Riverview, Bellefontaine Neighbors and Spanish Lake. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.

Do you pave in Glasgow Village in the winter?

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

Can you match the drive to my garage floor height?

Yes. We set the finished grade at the garage so water runs away from the building rather than toward it, which on older Glasgow Village homes is often the real reason the slab edge keeps taking on water.
