Main routes: I-55, Lemay Ferry Road, and Telegraph Road
Telegraph Road, Lemay Ferry Road and South Broadway carry most of the traffic through this stretch of south county, and the lots along them take a beating from delivery trucks. Parking lot and driveway paving is the bulk of our work here, from business frontage down to two-car drives on the side streets.
The community is unincorporated, so St. Louis County is the local government rather than a city hall. The River des Peres meets the Mississippi at the north edge, and some of the worst flooding of 1993 happened near that confluence, which tells you what low ground does. We build drainage and base first. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
Older south county homes sit on narrow lots with short drives, often paved thin and patched for decades. The apron at the street and the low corner by the garage are where they fail. We cut out soft subgrade, compact rock in layers, and place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Where there is no curb, we build the edge up so it holds.
Driveway pavingShops, service businesses and small industrial properties along Lemay Ferry Road and Broadway run lots that see trucks daily. We build the base to the heaviest axle, plan entrances and turning room, then place asphalt in lifts. Where the base is still sound, crack repair, patching, an overlay and seal coating cost less than a rebuild.
Parking lot pavingPrivate access roads behind commercial buildings, alleys and shared drives are regular work through this part of the county. We grade, rebuild the rock base where it has pumped out, crown the surface and pave to the traffic. An entrance off Telegraph Road gets extra base, because turning trucks work that spot hardest.
Road constructionPlenty of Lemay pavement just needs the right repair at the right time. Full-depth patches, overlays and edge rebuilds stretch the life of what you already have. When a surface is past saving, we say so and quote the rebuild instead.
Asphalt paving
Ground near the river sits low, and the 1993 flood near the River des Peres confluence showed what that means. County upland soils formed mostly in loess, and the soil survey says local streets on many of them need adequate base plus ditches and culverts for low strength and frost action. We drain before we pave.
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.
Typical ranges. Your Lemay estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Low ground needs the water handled first: grades that carry runoff to a planned outlet, and sometimes a deeper base so the subgrade stays dry. Pavement fails from underneath when the ground stays saturated. We look hard at where water goes during the free estimate.
The community is unincorporated, so St. Louis County is the authority rather than a city. Work inside a public right of way, such as an apron at the street, can require county approval. We tell you up front when that applies to your job.
Most Lemay 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.
Plan on keeping cars off new asphalt for two to three days in mild weather, and longer through a hot Lemay summer. Fresh pavement stays soft while it cures, so turning tires on a parked car is what leaves scuff marks.
We pave all around Lemay, across St. Louis County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
