Asphalt work for Troy properties

Troy grew from 8,524 residents in 2000 to 10,960 in 2020, and that growth shows up in the pavement: newer subdivision drives going in, older ones wearing out. We pave driveways and parking lots across the city, on a compacted rock base with hot-mix asphalt placed and rolled in lifts.

Route 162 runs through the center of town as Center Street, Market Street and Edwardsville Road, and I-55/70 clips the west side with access at Exits 17 and 18. Commercial lots near the interstate take truck traffic all day; the side streets take cars, school buses and delivery vans. Both need a base built for what actually uses them.

Driveway paving in Troy

Newer homes here often came with a thin drive that started cracking within a few winters, usually because the base was light. We can overlay one that is still sound, or take it out and rebuild the base before placing hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home drive. Older drives closer to the center of town usually need the failed sections cut out and rebuilt.

Parking lot paving in Troy

Business lots along Route 162 and near the interstate exits handle delivery trucks, constant turning and hard braking at the entrances. We size base rock to the load, lay out traffic flow so drivers are not cutting across parking, and grade water off the surface. Paving can be phased section by section so the lot stays usable.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Subdivision streets, private drives and apartment access roads carry garbage trucks and moving vans, not just cars. We rebuild worn streets in asphalt, patch and overlay where the base still holds, and set the crown and grade so water reaches the inlets rather than sitting along the curb.

General asphalt paving & repair

Sidewalk-to-driveway transitions, trail connections, subdivision patches and small pads are all part of the work around Troy. Small jobs still get a compacted base, clean saw-cut edges and a proper tie-in to the existing pavement.

Why the base matters in Troy

Most of the city drains east to Silver Creek tributaries, while the west side runs toward Canteen Creek and the river valley. Upland soil here is thick windblown loess silt that holds moisture, and freeze-thaw winters lift pavement resting on a wet base. We strip soft material, compact rock in lifts and grade for runoff.

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.

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

Troy paving questions

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

Do you pave in Maryville, Glen Carbon and Edwardsville?

Yes. Maryville borders Troy on the west and Glen Carbon on the northwest, with Edwardsville about 7 miles away, and we pave in all of them and across the rest of Madison County. Estimates are free and you get 25% off.

Can a cracked driveway be overlaid instead of replaced?

It depends on the base. If the asphalt is cracking but the ground under it is firm and the drive drains, an overlay works well. If there are potholes, sunken areas or alligator cracking, the base has failed and an overlay cracks through within a year or two.

Do you pave in Troy in the winter?

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

Can you widen a driveway for a second car?

Yes, widening is routine work in Troy. The added strip gets its own base, is tied into the existing pavement with a clean edge so the seam does not open, and is rolled with the rest so the surface reads as one driveway.
