Main routes: Gravois Road and Tesson Ferry Road
Driveways and parking lots are most of what we do in Affton, a south St. Louis County community that never incorporated. Road and permit questions here run through St. Louis County rather than a city hall, which is worth knowing before work starts at the street. Homes sit on older lots with drives of every vintage: original concrete, patched blacktop, gravel that has spread into the yard.
Gravois Road (Route 30) meets the north end of Tesson Ferry Road (Route 21) here, and the streets off MacKenzie and Laclede Station carry steady traffic. Every job gets the same treatment: soft spots dug out, rock base compacted, hot-mix asphalt rolled dense and graded to move water. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
Most drives on these streets were poured or paved decades ago, and the ground under them has settled since. We pull out failed material, rebuild the base where it has gone soft, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a car and pickup drive. Narrow drives can be widened for a second vehicle, and the apron at the street gets extra attention so it holds up to turning tires.
Driveway pavingGravois Road and Tesson Ferry Road carry the commercial traffic in this part of the county, and the lots along them take a beating from delivery trucks and constant turning. We rebuild worn lots, overlay sound ones, and grade so water leaves at planned points instead of ponding by the door. Church and small shop lots can be phased to stay open.
Parking lot pavingSubdivision streets and shared private drives behind the older blocks age the same way a driveway does, just faster under more wheels. We rebuild them with a compacted base, a crown that sheds water and edges that hold. Access drives at apartment buildings and small commercial buildings get a base sized for trucks.
Road constructionNot every job is a full rebuild. On older Affton pavement we often start with the smaller fixes: cutting out a failed patch, resetting a sunken section by the garage, or putting a fresh overlay over a surface whose base is still sound. We tell you which of those your asphalt actually needs, and we put it in writing.
Asphalt paving
Upland soils across St. Louis County formed in loess, and the county soil survey notes local roads and streets often need adequate base plus ditches and culverts to fight low strength and frost action. That is the whole game here. We grade for runoff, remove soft material and compact rock in layers before any asphalt goes down.
When you compare bids, ask each contractor for three numbers in writing: the compacted asphalt thickness, the base depth, and what happens to the water. Those three decide how long the surface lasts.
Typical ranges. Your Affton estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Affton is unincorporated, so it is served directly by St. Louis County rather than a city hall. County rules govern work in the right of way, including the apron where your drive meets the street. We go over what your job needs during the free estimate.
Sometimes. If the concrete is stable and drains, an asphalt overlay can work, though joints often reflect through in a few years. If slabs rock, settle or hold water, removing them and building a proper rock base gives a longer-lasting result. We look and tell you which fits.
Yes. We work in Affton 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 Affton summer. Fresh pavement stays soft while it cures, so turning tires on a parked car is what leaves scuff marks.
We pave all around Affton, across St. Louis County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
