Main routes: Gravois Road
Around 345 homes make up this village, along with Grant's Farm and the Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site at White Haven on Grant Road. Lots are generous and drives are often long, with turnarounds and side-entry garages common. We pave driveways and parking lots, using hot-mix asphalt over a compacted rock base.
Gravois Road runs along the edge, and Grant Road, Pardee and Rock Hill carry the rest of the traffic. Grant's Trail crosses the village, so access gets planned around it. Every job starts with where water goes on your property, then base depth, thickness and slope. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
With large lots, a drive here can run a couple hundred feet, curve around mature trees and end in a turnaround or a side-entry garage. Long drives need a base that holds the full length, not just near the street. We compact rock in layers, place hot mix typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars, and build thicker where trucks turn.
Driveway pavingLot work in south St. Louis County runs to churches, offices, small retail and visitor parking. We plan entrances, circulation and drainage first, size the base for delivery and service trucks, then lay asphalt in lifts. Phasing keeps part of the lot usable. Seal coating follows months later, once the asphalt has cured.
Parking lot pavingPrivate drives and shared lanes serving a few homes each wear at the edges, where there is no curb to hold the asphalt. We rebuild the base, restore a crown and compact firm edges so the pavement does not ravel. Trail crossings and utility runs get planned before paving, not after.
Road constructionPlenty of Grantwood Village pavement just needs the right repair at the right time. Full-depth patches, overlays and edge rebuilds stretch the life of what you already have. When a surface is past saving, we say so and quote the rebuild instead.
Asphalt paving
Rolling upland here formed in loess, and the county soil survey calls out low strength and frost action for local roads, correctable with adequate base material and drainage. Clay-heavy soil holds water, and freeze-thaw winters lift anything built on a wet base. We grade for runoff and compact rock in lifts.
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 Grantwood Village estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Yes. Phasing is common on long drives. We usually start at the garage and work toward the street, or pave the heavily used section first and extend later. The estimate can price the full run and a phased version so you can compare them.
Yes. Grant's Trail runs through the village, and many drives here pass under old oaks. We plan equipment access and haul routes before work starts, keep loads off root zones where we can, and grade so runoff does not pond against trunks.
Sometimes. If the base under your Grantwood Village pavement is still solid and the surface only has shallow cracking, an overlay can work well. If the pavement is sinking, rutting or breaking into alligator cracks, the base has failed and it needs to be rebuilt first. The free estimate is where we sort that out.
Plan on keeping cars off new asphalt for two to three days in mild weather, and longer through a hot Grantwood Village summer. Fresh pavement stays soft while it cures, so turning tires on a parked car is what leaves scuff marks.
We pave all around Grantwood Village, across St. Louis County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
