Main routes: Dr. Martin Luther King Drive
Wagner Electric once filled a block along Plymouth Avenue. Its cleaned-up 15-acre site by the MetroLink tracks is now the Plymouth Industrial Park. Industrial ground needs different pavement than a house does, and we build both: driveways on the residential blocks, parking lots and truck aprons on the commercial side.
Route 180 runs through as Dr. Martin Luther King Drive, then becomes St. Charles Rock Road at the Pagedale line. The city sits right along the northwest edge of the City of St. Louis, so access is quick from any direction. Every job starts underneath: failed material out, rock compacted in layers, hot-mix asphalt placed in lifts. Free estimate at (866) 490-7680, with 25% off.
Houses here are older and the drives usually are too. Thin base rock under a thin surface cracks, then holds water, then breaks apart. We remove the old material, dig out soft ground, compact fresh rock and place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home drive. The apron at the street gets extra base, since that is where the weight concentrates.
Driveway pavingWarehouses, shops, churches and the park-and-ride area near the Wellston MetroLink station each need a lot built for their own load. Truck traffic calls for deeper base and thicker asphalt than car parking does, so we can build the two differently within one lot and grade both toward a planned outlet.
Parking lot pavingIndustrial access drives, truck aprons and private roads around Plymouth Avenue take loaded trailers all week. Those get a heavier base and more asphalt, with the surface crowned so water leaves. We also repave shared residential lanes, sized to the vans and trash trucks that actually use them.
Road constructionGeneral asphalt work in Wellston covers the jobs that do not fit neatly in a box: alley aprons, walkways, basketball pads, repairs where a utility trench was cut, and overlays that bring a tired surface back. Each one gets the same treatment: a clean edge, a sound base and hot mix rolled tight.
Asphalt paving
Loess over clay is the rule across this part of the county, and the county soil survey calls for adequate base material plus ditches and culverts on local roads because of low strength and frost action. Winters here freeze and thaw repeatedly. We build base for that and grade so water is gone before it can freeze underneath.
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 Wellston estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Yes. A truck lot is a base question first. We build deeper compacted rock under the drive lanes and aprons, place the asphalt in lifts and roll each one, and set the grade to move water off. New asphalt needs time to cure before heavy loads, and we plan the schedule for that.
Yes. We pave in Wellston, Pagedale, Hillsdale, Pine Lawn, Velda City and the rest of this part of St. Louis County, along with the City of St. Louis and the Metro East. Estimates are free, and the work is 25% off.
Most Wellston 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.
Usually yes. Tight drives around Wellston are normal work: we size the equipment to the access, hand-work the pinch points along fences and garages, and roll every foot of it. If a spot truly cannot be machine-paved, we tell you before you sign anything.
We pave all around Wellston, across St. Louis County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
