Blacktop that holds up in Hazelwood

Distribution centers, manufacturing plants and neighborhoods share the same city here, with Lambert International next door and I-270, I-170, Lindbergh and Highway 370 close at hand. We pave driveways in the subdivisions and parking lots at the business parks, and those are two very different builds with two different failure points.

A truck court at Aviator Business Park or the Hazelwood Logistics Center carries loaded trailers every day. A driveway off McDonnell Boulevard carries a car and a trash can. Both need a compacted base and asphalt placed in lifts, at very different thicknesses. We size each to the actual load. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.

Driveway paving in Hazelwood

Homes here run from postwar builds to newer subdivisions, and their drives fail in familiar ways: a sunken apron, cracks down the middle, water standing at the garage. We dig out soft subgrade, compact rock in layers and place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Widening and extra parking pads can go in at once.

Parking lot paving in Hazelwood

Warehouse, office and retail lots across the city face very different loads. Truck courts and dock approaches need a deep base and thick asphalt in multiple lifts. Employee and visitor parking can be built lighter. We separate the two in the design, plan entrances for the turning radius, and phase work to keep a site running.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Private service roads, yard drives and loading approaches inside the industrial parks take the hardest wear in the city. We rebuild rutted subgrade, restore the grade and pave to a thickness matched to trailer traffic. In the subdivisions, shared drives and private lanes get the same method at residential thickness.

General asphalt paving & repair

Beyond driveways and lots, we handle the everyday asphalt work around Hazelwood: overlays on sound pavement, full-depth patches where the base gave out, walking paths, sport courts and shop aprons. You get a straight answer on whether to repair or replace.

Why the base matters in Hazelwood

Cowmire Creek runs through the city to the Missouri River, and the low ground near it drains slowly. Upland soils formed in loess, and the county soil survey flags low strength and frost action for local roads, correctable with adequate base and drainage. We grade for runoff first, then build the base in layers.

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.

Compacted asphaltTypically 2 to 3 in. for a car drive
Stone baseTypically 4 to 8 in., compacted
Drive on itUsually 2 to 3 days, longer in heat
First sealcoatTypically 6 to 12 months after paving

Typical ranges. Your Hazelwood estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Hazelwood paving questions

Straight answers for Hazelwood homeowners and property managers. Anything else, call (866) 490-7680.

Can you pave a dock approach and truck court?

Yes. Dock approaches take the heaviest concentrated load on a site, from loaded trailers braking and turning in the same spots. They need a deeper compacted base and thicker asphalt in more than one lift. We look at traffic and turning paths before pricing the work.

Can a lot be repaved while the business stays open?

Usually, yes. We phase the work in sections so part of the lot stays usable, and sequence around delivery windows and shift changes. Fresh asphalt needs time to cure before heavy loads, so we map out which areas reopen when before starting.

Should I sealcoat my new driveway right away?

No. Fresh asphalt in Hazelwood 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.

What causes those cracks along the edge of my drive?

Unsupported edges. When the ground beside a Hazelwood driveway settles or gets driven on, the asphalt has nothing holding it up and breaks off. Rebuilding the edge and backfilling it properly is what stops it.
