Paving across Christian County

Christian County is central Illinois farm country, with cropland covering about 85 percent of the land and Taylorville as the county seat. We pave driveways, parking lots, farm lanes and private roads at the south end of the county, in Morrisonville, Palmer and Harvel. Route 48 runs through all three on its way north to Taylorville.

The Sangamon River bounds the county on the north and its South Fork crosses it, with broad bottoms and terraces along both. Most of the rest is nearly level ground over about 50 feet of glacial drift, broken by three low moraine ridges. Flat ground drains slowly, and slow drainage is the main paving problem in this part of the county. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate and 25% off.

Ground and drainage

Most soils here formed in loess over a flat Illinoian till plain, and the wet, nearly level ones have depended on tile drainage since the 1870s. Ground that needs tile to grow corn needs help under pavement too. We proof the subgrade, remove soft material, compact the aggregate base in lifts and set a grade that carries water off rather than letting it stand.

Christian County paving questions

Why does flat ground make paving harder?

Because water has nowhere to go. On nearly level ground there is little natural fall, so we build the fall in: a graded subgrade, a compacted base and a surface pitched toward an outlet. Without that, water sits, works into the base and lifts the pavement in a freeze.
