Main routes: I-55, Highway 67, and Highway 61
Truman Boulevard carries Highway 61 and Highway 67 together through the city and its neighbor Crystal City, and the lots along it stay busy. We pave those, and we handle driveways across the residential streets on both sides. Cracked aprons, sunken wheel tracks and water standing at the back of a lot are the common calls.
The city dates to 1878, when it grew out from older Crystal City, and it is still adding ground: the council voted in November 2025 to annex about 240 acres north of Highway 67. New subdivisions and hundred-year-old streets need different approaches, and we check the base before quoting either one. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate and 25% off.
Older drives near Main Street are short, close to the street and sitting on a thin base. Newer subdivision drives run longer with a side pad. We handle both the same way underneath: soft ground out, rock compacted in layers, then hot mix placed typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups, with extra depth where a truck or camper parks.
Driveway pavingRetail and office lots along Truman Boulevard and Highway A carry delivery trucks and trash trucks on top of car traffic, and those set the base thickness. We grade so water reaches the inlets instead of pooling at the low corner, rebuild the entrances where tires turn, and phase the paving so an entrance stays open.
Parking lot pavingPrivate roads in subdivisions outside the city limits, church and school drives, and the service lanes behind businesses all wear at the turns first. We rebuild those with added base, overlay the straight runs where the structure is sound, and check every low point for drainage before the paver moves.
Road constructionGeneral paving in Festus can be as simple as a new apron where the drive meets the street or as big as an overlay across a business lot. Either way the estimate spells out the base work, the asphalt thickness and what the finished surface should look like.
Asphalt paving
Jefferson County here is ridge ground above the Mississippi bottoms, capped with thick loess and running to cherty red clay over limestone on the slopes. Water moves fast on the grades and slowly in the flats, and freeze-thaw winters lift whatever stays wet. We grade for runoff and compact the rock base in layers.
Bids are only comparable when they spell out the same things: base depth, compacted thickness, how edges are finished, and where water is meant to go. Ask for those before you pick a number.

Yes. Festus, Crystal City, Herculaneum and Pevely run together along the river side of the county, and we pave driveways, lots and private roads across all of them. Estimates are free and you get 25% off. Call (866) 490-7680.
Residential driveways commonly get 2 to 3 inches of compacted asphalt over a compacted aggregate base. What varies is the base depth, which depends on the soil and what parks there. A drive that holds a work truck or an RV needs more of both.
It helps, because you know where water sits on the Festus property and how the drive gets used. If you cannot be there, tell us what you want done when you call and we will work out the best way to walk the site and go over the details with you.
Most Festus estimates happen within a few days of your call, and jobs are usually scheduled a couple of weeks out depending on weather and the season. Booking early in the year gets the better dates.
We pave all around Festus, across Jefferson County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
