Your Lakeshire paving crew

Incorporated in 1951, this is a small residential city in south county with Tesson Ferry Road along its eastern edge and quiet streets like Puttington Drive and Squire Meadows Drive inside it. Driveways are the everyday work in Lakeshire, with parking lots for the churches, offices and small businesses nearby.

Most drives here are postwar, which means they have been sealed, patched and sometimes overlaid more than once. Sometimes the fix is a new surface. Sometimes the base underneath is gone and the drive needs to come out. We tell you which. Residential asphalt runs typically 2 to 3 inches compacted over rock. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.

Driveway paving in Lakeshire

A postwar drive on a small lot usually failed at the apron or at the low corner where water sits. We check both before quoting, along with tree roots and the grade at the street. Then soft subgrade comes out, rock gets compacted in layers, and hot mix goes down, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Widening for a second car is common here.

Parking lot paving in Lakeshire

Small church, office and shop lots near Tesson Ferry Road carry cars all day and a delivery truck now and then. We size the base to the truck, plan the entrance and the low point, then place asphalt in lifts. If the base is still sound, crack repair, patching, an overlay and seal coating will usually do.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Short private drives, alley-width access lanes and condo parking streets are regular work across south county. We grade, build or rebuild a compacted rock base, crown the surface and pave to match the load. An entrance onto a busy arterial like Tesson Ferry Road gets extra base, because turning traffic works that edge hard.

General asphalt paving & repair

Plenty of Lakeshire 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.

Built for Lakeshire's ground

Upland soils in St. Louis County formed largely in loess, and the county soil survey says local streets on many of them need adequate base plus ditches and culverts to prevent damage from low strength and frost action. In a small city with mature yards, water pools where grades have settled. We fix drainage first.

The part of the job you can see is the last two inches. Ask what is underneath, how it will be compacted, and which way the finished surface drains.

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 Lakeshire estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Lakeshire paving questions

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

Is my driveway a repave or a full replacement?

It depends on the base. If the asphalt is cracked and tired but the ground under it is stable, an overlay can work. If there are potholes, soft spots or edges that rock underfoot, the base has failed and patching only buys a season. We look and tell you straight.

Do you work in Lakeshire and the neighboring south county towns?

Yes. We cover this city, Affton, Grantwood Village, Green Park, Sappington, Concord and the rest of south St. Louis County, along with the wider St. Louis area. Estimates are free and you get 25% off.

Is my part of St. Louis County in your service area?

Yes. We work in Lakeshire and throughout St. Louis County, along with the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river. Call or send the form with your address and we will set up a time to look at the job.

How long before I can park on it?

Plan on keeping cars off new asphalt for two to three days in mild weather, and longer through a hot Lakeshire summer. Fresh pavement stays soft while it cures, so turning tires on a parked car is what leaves scuff marks.
