Main routes: Route 13 and Route 153
Route 153 is a rural two-lane road for its entire length, and it runs right through the middle of town where it overlaps Route 13. Roads like that put farm equipment, trucks and everyday traffic on the same pavement. Village driveways and parking lots see the same mix, so we build for the heaviest thing that uses them.
The village was founded on November 19, 1850 and named for James B. Coulter. Grant Street and Main Street carry most of the local traffic. Home drive, church lot or lane back to a farm shop, the sequence holds: soft ground out, rock base compacted, grade set to shed water, hot-mix asphalt placed and rolled.

Drives here often sit close to the road with a culvert or a shallow ditch at the end, and that is where trouble starts when the ditch fills. We clear the drainage, build the apron with extra rock, and set a cross slope that pushes runoff off the surface. Hot-mix goes down typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups, deeper where trucks park.
Driveway pavingBusinesses on Grant Street or Main Street, church lots, a school pad or a grain and equipment yard all need an entrance sized for turning trucks and a grade with somewhere for water to go. We compact the base in layers, place asphalt in lifts and roll it tight. Sound older lots may need only repairs and seal coating.
Parking lot pavingFarm lanes and private roads out toward Tilden and Oakdale take loaded trucks for a few weeks a year, and we build the base for those weeks. Crowned surface, compacted rock, and asphalt or chip seal depending on the traffic. Entrances onto Route 13 or Route 153 get extra rock where tires turn and brake.
Road constructionA lot of rural pavement near Coulterville fails at the edges, where water gets under the asphalt and tires break the shoulder down. Overlays, edge rebuilds and better drainage are often the fix. When the base is gone, we rebuild it before we pave.
Asphalt paving
Water left standing on a village drive or lot is the beginning of every failure we see. Clay-heavy soils common through the region hold it, freeze-thaw winters expand it, and the pavement lifts. We set grade first so runoff leaves fast, then remove soft subgrade and compact clean rock in layers under the asphalt.
Before you sign anything, get the base depth and the compacted asphalt thickness on paper. Two bids that look far apart are often just two different pavements.

Yes, though work where a drive meets Route 13 or Route 153 can involve the state rather than the village. We check what your address needs before we start, build the apron with extra base because turning traffic grinds hardest there, and tie the grade into the road cleanly.
An overlay puts new asphalt over an existing surface that still has a sound base. A replacement takes the old surface out, fixes or rebuilds the base, and paves fresh. Overlays work when the problem is wear. If the base is failing, an overlay just cracks again.
No. Fresh asphalt in Coulterville needs time to cure before it is sealed, typically several months and often up to a year. Sealing too early can trap oils in the pavement. After that, sealing every few years helps it resist water, sun and salt.
Usually yes, and it is a common question on Coulterville lanes. We plan the approach before the day of paving, and building a turnaround into the job often costs less than you would expect while making the drive far more usable.
