Paving Lebanon from the base up

Charles Dickens stayed at the Mermaid House on East St. Louis Street in 1842, and McKendree University has been here since 1828, which makes Lebanon older than most towns in this part of Illinois. A historic district of about 129 acres covers the center. Paving in a place like that means driveways behind old homes, campus and church parking lots, and business lots along the main streets.

US 50 and Route 4 run together through town, and I-64 Exit 23 sits south of it at Route 4. Commercial lots near that traffic carry delivery trucks every day, and truck weight is decided by the base. We remove soft material, compact aggregate in layers, grade to a low point and roll hot mix dense. Free estimates and 25% off at (866) 490-7680.

Driveway paving in Lebanon

Drives behind the older houses are narrow, often long and sometimes shared, with brick walks and mature trees close by. Those constraints make grading and edges the hard part, not the asphalt. We build a compacted base full width, set a slope that carries water away from the house and foundation, then place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups.

Parking lot paving in Lebanon

Campus, church and business lots here fill and empty in waves, and the ones near US 50 take delivery trucks daily. We size the base to the heaviest vehicle a lot sees, grade so water clears to a low corner away from walkways, and lay out stalls and drive aisles that work with the entrances and the traffic around them.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Subdivision streets, private drives and access roads to a lot or a yard all need a compacted base and a crown before anything else. We build the shoulders so trucks tracking wide do not break the edge, and keep drainage continuous from the high end to wherever the water is supposed to go.

General asphalt paving & repair

Around Lebanon we see plenty of pavement that has been patched over and over. Sometimes one more patch is the right call. Sometimes a mill-and-overlay or a rebuild saves money over the next ten years. We will lay out both options so you can choose.

Built for Lebanon's ground

St. Clair County upland sits under thick windblown silt, some of the deepest near the bluff line to the west. Silt holds water, water freezes, and frost lifts pavement with water trapped under it. We grade for runoff first, take out soft material and compact the rock base in layers so the surface has something solid to sit on.

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.

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

Lebanon paving questions

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

Can you pave in a historic district without disturbing what is there?

We work to existing grades and edges where they matter, keep equipment off brick walks and tree roots as much as the site allows, and match the finished height to walks and aprons. Local rules on materials and appearance are worth confirming with the city first.

Do you serve O'Fallon, Mascoutah and Summerfield?

Yes. Lebanon sits within a few miles of Summerfield, O'Fallon and Mascoutah, and we cover them along with Trenton, New Baden and the rest of St. Clair County, plus greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.

Is my part of St. Clair County in your service area?

Yes. We work in Lebanon and throughout St. Clair County, along with the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river. Call or send the form with your address and we will set up a time to look at the job.

Can you pave a church or small business lot in Lebanon?

Yes, and we phase it so the lot stays usable. Most small Lebanon lots are done in sections, with the entrance kept open where possible, so a business or a Sunday service is not shut out while the asphalt cures.
