Main routes: I-70, Highway 170, and Natural Bridge Road
Berkeley runs on truck traffic. The airport, the Boeing complex beside it and the freight and service businesses along Airport Road and North Hanley all put weight on pavement every day. Driveways in the neighborhoods are ordinary residential work, but the parking lots and yards here often need a section built for loaded trucks, not cars.
I-170 meets I-70 in the city, and Natural Bridge Road (Route 115) starts at I-70 exit 237 here. The city incorporated in 1937 and took its name from the Berkeley Acres community. We build base for the real load, place hot-mix asphalt in lifts, roll it dense and grade it to drain. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
Homes here date mostly to the middle of the last century, and their drives were built thin. We remove what has failed, rebuild the base where it is soft, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. The apron at the street usually needs the most work, since that is where turning tires and street runoff meet.
Driveway pavingLots near the airport and along Airport Road, Frost Avenue and North Hanley take semis, box trucks and constant turning. We build entrances, drive lanes and dock approaches thicker than the parking bays, grade to planned drains, and rebuild areas already rutted through. A sound lot can be crack sealed and seal coated to buy years.
Parking lot pavingService roads, yard drives and private streets around industrial and commercial property carry loaded trucks daily. That calls for a deeper compacted base, a crown that sheds, and rebuilt entrances where the pavement meets a public street. Apartment and school drives get a section sized for buses and trash trucks.
Road constructionGeneral asphalt work in Berkeley 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 upland covers this part of the county, and the county soil survey ties pavement damage on many of these soils to low strength and frost action, calling for adequate base plus ditches and culverts. Heavy trucks make it worse by pumping water out of a wet subgrade. We drain and compact before paving.
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 Berkeley estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Ruts mean the section under the wheels is not carrying the load. Turning concentrates weight and shoves the surface sideways, so entrances and dock approaches fail first. The fix is a thicker, properly compacted base in those areas, not just a new surface over the same soft spot.
Yes. Parts of Lambert lie inside the city, and we pave driveways, business lots and yards throughout this part of north county, including Kinloch, Woodson Terrace, Edmundson and Ferguson. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.
Hot-mix asphalt needs warm air and warm ground to compact properly, and the plants serving Berkeley typically run from spring into late fall. Winter is a good time to get your estimate and book a spot for the season.
No. Paving a Berkeley driveway happens on your property; trucks stage at the curb for the day and the street stays open. If an apron tie-in means a short blocked stretch at the street, we tell you which hours that falls in.
We pave all around Berkeley, across St. Louis County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
