Main routes: Highway 61 and Highway 32
After the great flood of 1785 the town picked up and moved about two miles north, off the floodplain and onto higher ground. That decision still shows in how water moves through it. We pave driveways in the neighborhoods and parking lots for shops, churches and offices around the historic core.
The old town is now a National Park Service site, and visitor traffic runs heavy through the district, so lot layout and entrances matter. Away from the core, Highway 61 and Highway 32 carry the trucks. County ground includes a karst plain several miles wide, dotted with sinkholes, which makes drainage the first question on any job. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate, and you get 25% off.
Drives in the older parts of town are short, tight and often close to a neighbor's line. Equipment access matters as much as the paving. We remove failed material, compact rock in layers, and place hot-mix asphalt, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for cars and pickups. Edges get particular attention here, because an unsupported edge on a narrow drive cracks first.
Driveway pavingLots serving the historic district take visitor traffic in bursts, and lots on Highway 61 take trucks all day. Both start with entrances and drainage. We build the base for the heaviest vehicle that uses the lot, place asphalt in lifts, and grade to planned low points rather than wherever water happens to sit.
Parking lot pavingWe build and repave private roads, church and school access drives, farm lanes and field roads out toward the river bottoms. Each gets grading, a compacted rock base and a crown to shed water. Entrances off Highway 32 or Highway 61 get extra base where trucks turn in from the highway.
Road constructionIn a town like Ste. Genevieve, general asphalt work covers a lot of ground: shop and church lots, alley aprons, repairs along a curb line, overlays on older streets and pads for equipment. The approach stays the same: fix the base, lay the hot mix, roll it tight, finish the edges.
Asphalt paving
A karst plain runs through this county, so sinkholes and underground drainage are real considerations, not textbook ones. Water can leave fast in one spot and sit in the next. We look at where it goes before we grade, remove soft soil, and compact the rock base in layers so freeze-thaw winters have nothing to lift.
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.
Typical ranges. Your Ste. Genevieve estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

They can. Changes visible from the street in a historic district sometimes need local review. We can provide a layout and an estimate you can take to the reviewing body, and we schedule the work once you have whatever approval applies.
Yes. St. Mary is about nine miles south and Bloomsdale about ten north, both close runs on Highway 61 or I-55. We cover Ste. Genevieve County and greater St. Louis. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off.
On a Ste. Genevieve job the price comes down to size, how much base work is needed, the asphalt thickness, whether old pavement has to come out, drainage fixes and how easily trucks can reach the work. Your written estimate lists each of those so you can compare it with other bids line by line.
Only if the grade changes. Paving over a low spot in Ste. Genevieve leaves the same low spot in a smoother surface. We measure the fall first and tell you what it takes to move the water.
We pave all around Ste. Genevieve, across Ste. Genevieve County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
