Main routes: I-55, I-255, and Lindbergh Boulevard
South County driveways take a beating from the freeze and thaw cycle, and so do the small lots behind the shops on Lemay Ferry Road. We pave both. Most homes here went up decades ago, and the original drive is often thin asphalt over a base that has settled at the apron and along the edges. New asphalt fixes the look. Fixing the base is what makes it last.
Mehlville is unincorporated St. Louis County, not a city of its own. I-255 starts at the I-55 and I-270 interchange here and runs east to the Jefferson Barracks Bridge, so truck traffic stays close to a lot of properties. We grade for drainage, compact the rock base and roll hot mix to a dense finish. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
Most drives here are two-car suburban aprons carrying daily cars and the occasional delivery truck. We cut out soft spots, compact the rock base and place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home drive. Edges get real attention, because an unsupported edge is where cracks usually start. If your drive slopes back toward the garage, we reset the grade so water runs to the street instead.
Driveway pavingShops, offices and churches along Lemay Ferry Road, Telegraph Road and Lindbergh Boulevard need lots that take steady in-and-out traffic. We build the base heavier at drive aisles and dumpster pads, grade so water reaches the inlets, and lay out stalls to keep traffic flowing one way. Sound older lots often need only crack repair, patching and seal coating.
Parking lot pavingPrivate drives shared by a few homes, condo and apartment access lanes, and the service roads behind commercial buildings all get built the same way: compacted base, a crowned surface and a clean tie-in where they meet the public street. Turning areas get extra thickness, since that is where trucks scuff and push a surface out of shape.
Road constructionPlenty of Mehlville 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
Clay-heavy soils are common across the St. Louis region. They hold water and they move with the frost. A drive that stays wet at the low end cracks and sinks first. We grade every job so water leaves the surface, remove soft material, then compact rock in layers so the asphalt sits on something solid.
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.
Typical ranges. Your Mehlville estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Not always. If the base is sound and the cracks are shallow, an overlay on a milled and cleaned surface can work. If the drive pumps water, shows alligator cracking or sinks at the apron, the base has failed and a full replacement is the honest answer.
Yes. We can stage a lot in sections, keep part of it open, pave the rest, then come back for the remainder. Fresh asphalt needs time to cool before traffic, so we set the schedule with you first. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.
Yes. We work in Mehlville and throughout St. Louis 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.
Plan on keeping cars off new asphalt for two to three days in mild weather, and longer through a hot Mehlville summer. Fresh pavement stays soft while it cures, so turning tires on a parked car is what leaves scuff marks.
