Main routes: Highway 40, I-70, and Highway 364
A planned community built around two private lakes, 600 acres and 85 acres, both owned by the community association. That structure shapes the paving work: driveways on association streets, plus lots for the clubhouses, churches and retail that came with growth. Parking lot and driveway work is most of what we do here.
Highway 364 begins at a cloverleaf with Highway 40 and Highway N, and the retail along Highway 40 has grown since 2004, including The Meadows and the Shoppes at Hawk Ridge. Commercial lots near there carry constant turning traffic. Homes get a compacted rock base and hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted.

Subdivision drives here are mostly short approaches off curbed streets, and the details decide the outcome: a clean edge, a grade that carries water to the street, and a tight joint at the garage. We cut out soft subgrade, compact rock in layers, then place hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Widening for a third car or a turnaround is common.
Driveway pavingRetail along Highway 40, plus clubhouses, churches and office parks, run lots where the entrances and the drive aisles wear first. We build the base for delivery trucks, plan the flow and the low points, then place asphalt in lifts. An older lot with sound base is often a candidate for crack repair, patching, an overlay and seal coating.
Parking lot pavingAssociation streets and private drives take every resident, every delivery van and every trash truck, week after week. We grade, rebuild the rock base where it has failed, crown the surface and pave to match that traffic. A large street program can be phased by section so the neighborhood keeps access while the work moves through.
Road constructionA lot of rural pavement near Lake St. Louis 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
The county soil survey notes some upland soils lack strength for traffic without added crushed rock in the road base, and clayey subsoils here shrink and swell with moisture. Lakeside lots add runoff to that. Freeze-thaw winters widen whatever water gets into. We grade to drain, replace soft ground and compact base rock 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.

Usually we work it in sections so residents keep access. Milling, base repair and paving each move through in passes, and we schedule around trash pickup and school traffic where we can. The plan and the phasing go in writing before the first day on site.
Yes. Short approaches with a tight swing need the apron shaped correctly and the edges supported, or that corner breaks down first. We build those edges thicker and set the grade so water leaves the pad instead of sitting at the door. Estimates are free and you get 25% off.
It helps, because you know where water sits on the Lake St. Louis 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.
As much as the budget allows. Long lanes around Lake St. Louis are often done in stages, starting at the road or at the worst stretch. We build each stage so the next one ties in cleanly rather than leaving a lip where the work stopped.
We pave all around Lake St. Louis, across St. Charles County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
