Blacktop that holds up in Staunton

Staunton is Macoupin County's second largest city, a former coal mining town with I-55 about 2 miles east. We pave driveways and parking lots across town and out into the farmland on the outskirts, with a compacted rock base and hot-mix asphalt on every job. Farm lanes and private roads on the edge of town are part of the work too.

Route 4 winds through the city on Edwardsville, Hibbard, Pearl and Hackman streets. For homes, we focus on base, drainage and clean edges so a driveway sheds water and holds up to winter. For businesses, churches and shops, we build lots for delivery trucks and turning traffic. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.

Driveway paving in Staunton

In an older town, driveways come in every condition: cracked concrete, patched blacktop, gravel, or a single-car strip that no longer fits the household. We remove failed material, repair or rebuild the base, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home drive. Widening for a second car or adding a parking pad can happen in the same job.

Parking lot paving in Staunton

For a business, church or shop lot on Route 4 or elsewhere in town, we lay out entrances and traffic flow, build the base for delivery trucks, and grade so water drains to planned spots. We can repave a worn lot, overlay a sound one, or seal coat asphalt that is still in good shape. Work can be phased to keep part of the lot open.

Road construction & private roads

On the outskirts, farm lanes, private roads and small subdivision streets need the same fundamentals: a graded, compacted base, a crown that sheds water and edges that hold. We build new ones and rebuild worn ones in asphalt, or chip seal lanes with lighter traffic. Access roads to shops and storage yards get a base sized for truck loads.

General asphalt paving & repair

Around Staunton we see plenty of pavement that has been patched over and over. Sometimes one more patch is the right call. Sometimes a mill-and-overlay or a rebuild saves money over the next ten years. We will lay out both options so you can choose.

Why the base matters in Staunton

Staunton drains west through tributaries of Ginseng Creek toward Cahokia Creek, and its easternmost part drains south toward Silver Creek. Clay-heavy soils common around St. Louis hold water, and freeze-thaw winters lift any pavement sitting on a wet base. We grade so runoff leaves the surface, remove soft soil and compact rock in layers.

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.

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

Staunton paving questions

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

Do you pave on the Madison County side, just south of Staunton?

Yes. Staunton's southern border is the Madison County line, and we work on both sides of it, including Livingston, Williamson and Worden, along with the rest of Macoupin County and greater St. Louis. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.

What causes potholes in a driveway?

Water. It gets through cracks, softens the base, then freezes and expands. Traffic breaks the weakened surface into a hole. Sealing cracks early and keeping water draining off the pavement slows it down. Once the base fails, the fix is cutting out the area and rebuilding it.

Do you pave in Staunton in the winter?

Hot-mix asphalt needs warm air and warm ground to compact properly, and the plants serving Staunton typically run from spring into late fall. Winter is a good time to get your estimate and book a spot for the season.

Do you do smaller repairs, or only full driveways?

Both. Patching a failed section, filling cracks before winter and rebuilding an apron are regular work in Staunton. We will tell you honestly when patching is throwing good money after bad.
