Blacktop that holds up in St. Peters

A farming town of 486 people in 1970 passed 40,000 by 1990, and most of the housing stock dates from that run of building. We repave driveways in those subdivisions and build parking lots along Mid Rivers Mall Drive, Cave Springs Road and Veterans Memorial Parkway.

Drives poured during a boom are all reaching the same age at once, which is why so many here need the base rebuilt rather than a thin overlay. Commercial lots around the I-70 and Highway 364 corridors take steady truck traffic and need entrances and drainage planned first. The city keeps 27 parks and more than 30 miles of trails, so lot and connecting pad work comes up too. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.

Driveway paving in St. Peters

Two and three-car drives in eighties and nineties subdivisions are the common job here. Typical failures are settling at the garage apron, cracking along edges with no support, and water running back toward the house. We remove failed material, compact rock in layers, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted, with the grade set to carry water out to the street.

Parking lot paving in St. Peters

Retail, office, medical and church lots along Mid Rivers Mall Drive and Cave Springs Road see constant turnover. We lay out entrances, aisles and drainage together, size the base for delivery trucks, and place the asphalt in lifts. Larger lots get paved in phases so the business stays open through the work.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

We build and repave subdivision streets, private roads, apartment access drives and commercial service roads. Each gets a graded, compacted base and a crown that sheds water, with asphalt thickness matched to the traffic. Streets carrying school buses and trash trucks need more base and more asphalt than any driveway.

Road construction

General asphalt paving & repair

Beyond driveways and lots, we handle the everyday asphalt work around St. Peters: overlays on sound pavement, full-depth patches where the base gave out, walking paths, sport courts and shop aprons. You get a straight answer on whether to repair or replace.

What's under a St. Peters driveway

This part of the county is loess-covered hills above the Missouri River bottoms, and the clay-heavy soils common around St. Louis drain slowly. Water that gets under pavement and freezes lifts it. We grade so runoff leaves quickly, remove soft soil, and compact the rock base in layers before placing hot mix.

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

St. Peters paving questions

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

Is an overlay enough for a 1990s driveway?

Sometimes. If the base is still solid and the cracking is shallow, an overlay works and costs less. If the drive is settling, pumping water or cracked all the way through, new asphalt over a failed base will fail the same way. We tell you which you have.

Do you serve St. Charles, O'Fallon and Cottleville?

Yes. We work across St. Charles County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river. Highway 364 and I-70 put most of these towns minutes apart. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.

What kind of base should go under a St. Peters driveway?

Typically a compacted crushed-stone base several inches deep on firm soil, with soft spots dug out first, and that holds for any St. Peters driveway. On clay soils that hold water, a thicker base and good slope matter even more. The estimate states the base depth so there are no surprises.

What causes those cracks along the edge of my drive?

Unsupported edges. When the ground beside a St. Peters driveway settles or gets driven on, the asphalt has nothing holding it up and breaks off. Rebuilding the edge and backfilling it properly is what stops it.
