Main routes: Route 16
Irving sits on Route 16 about 6 miles northeast of Hillsboro, with Witt about 5 miles farther up the road. We pave driveways and parking lots in the village first, then the farm lanes and private roads that lead out to homes and fields in the country. Homes in the village and farm places outside it get the same base-first approach.
The village drains west toward Little Creek, a tributary of the Middle Fork of Shoal Creek, and we plan every job around where water goes. A compacted rock base, hot mix placed and rolled while it is hot, and good grades are what make pavement last through central Illinois winters. Estimates cost nothing, and you get 25% off.

Old blacktop that has cracked into a web of pieces, or gravel that ruts every thaw, points to the same fix: a better base. On an Irving driveway, we dig out weak soil, compact new base rock in layers and pave with hot mix, usually 2 to 3 inches compacted. We support the edges and shape the apron so it meets the street or Route 16 cleanly.
Driveway pavingChurches, shops and small business lots along Route 16 in Irving need a surface that drains and holds up. Farm yards and shop pads out of town carry heavier tires. We size base and asphalt to the heaviest vehicle expected, pave in lifts and grade so water runs off. Sealcoat can follow after several months of curing.
Parking lot pavingFarm lanes and private roads around Irving need a compacted base, a crown, firm shoulders and culverts where ditches cross. Lanes that carry loaded trucks get a deeper base than a home drive. For lightly used lanes, chip seal or recycled millings can be a practical, lower-cost surface.
Road constructionA lot of rural pavement near Irving fails at the edges, where water gets under the asphalt and tires break the shoulder down. Overlays, edge rebuilds and better drainage are often the fix. When the base is gone, we rebuild it before we pave.
Asphalt paving
Water around Irving heads west toward Little Creek and the Middle Fork of Shoal Creek. Slow-draining soils are common in this part of Illinois, and winter freeze-thaw turns trapped water into heaves and cracks. We build on firm compacted base and grade every surface so water leaves quickly.
When you compare bids, ask each contractor for three numbers in writing: the compacted asphalt thickness, the base depth, and what happens to the water. Those three decide how long the surface lasts.
Typical ranges. Your Irving estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

That pattern usually means the base under the asphalt has failed, often because water got in. Sealing over it does not last. We cut out the failed area, rebuild the base and patch or repave. During your free estimate, we check how far the damage has spread.
Yes. We give free estimates for driveways, lanes and lots in the village and on the rural properties around it, from Route 16 out to the county roads. You get 25% off the work, and you can call (866) 490-7680 to set a time.
It helps, because you know where water sits on the Irving 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.
As much as the budget allows. Long lanes around Irving are often done in stages, starting at the road or at the worst stretch. We build each stage so the next one ties in cleanly rather than leaving a lip where the work stopped.
We pave all around Irving, across Montgomery County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
