Main routes: I-55 and Route 16
We pave driveways and parking lots across Litchfield, from homes on the side streets to business lots on Union Avenue, where Route 16 runs through town and meets I-55 at Exit 52 on the west edge. Historic Route 66 passes through too, past the Litchfield Museum and Route 66 Welcome Center.
First platted in 1853 as Huntsville, the city was renamed two years later. Its limits now reach about 5 miles north to take in most of Lake Lou Yaeger, so an address here can mean a long drive well outside downtown. Every job gets the same foundation: a compacted base, hot mix placed in lifts and grades that move water off. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off. Call (866) 490-7680.
A cracked, sunken Litchfield driveway usually has a base problem, not just a surface problem. We dig out soft spots, rebuild with compacted rock, and pave with hot mix, usually 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home. Long drives near Lake Lou Yaeger get the same base work, plus a crown so rain runs off to the sides instead of down the middle.
Driveway pavingBusiness lots along Union Avenue, Historic Route 66 and near the I-55 interchange take steady cars and trucks. We build commercial lots with a thicker section than a driveway, plan slopes and inlets so water leaves the surface, and lay out parking and drive lanes for clean traffic flow. Sound lots can often be milled and overlaid instead of fully replaced.
Parking lot pavingPrivate roads, subdivision streets and lake-area access drives around Litchfield need a compacted base, a crown, and ditches or culverts that carry water away. New subdivision streets get grades that tie into existing drainage. For long, lightly used lanes outside town, chip seal or recycled millings can be a lower-cost surface.
Road constructionGeneral paving in Litchfield 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
Winters here bring freeze and thaw, and water that sits under pavement is what breaks it up. Slow-draining soils are common in central Illinois, so we dig out soft ground, build up compacted base and set grades so water leaves every surface quickly, from a small driveway to a large commercial lot.
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.
Typical ranges. Your Litchfield estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Often, yes. If the base is still solid and the damage is mostly on the surface, we mill off the worn top layer, repair any failed spots and lay new asphalt. If the base has failed, an overlay will not last. We check which one you have in a free estimate.
Yes. Most of the lake sits inside Litchfield's city limits, and we pave driveways, lanes and parking areas around it. Long drives near the water need a solid base and careful drainage so runoff does not wash out the edges. The estimate is free, with 25% off.
Hot-mix asphalt needs warm air and warm ground to compact properly, and the plants serving Litchfield typically run from spring into late fall. Winter is a good time to get your estimate and book a spot for the season.
In Litchfield that is the piece that takes the most abuse, so it gets extra attention: a firm base, a tie-in that sits flush with the road, and a shape that moves water to the ditch or gutter instead of back toward the drive.
We pave all around Litchfield, across Montgomery County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
