Your West Sullivan paving crew

Old Route 66 ran through here before I-44 took the traffic, and the town still sits right against the interstate with Highway WW just to the north. We pave driveways and parking lots along those roads, plus the shop pads, farm yards and private lanes that run back from them.

West Sullivan only incorporated in 2000, and it is a small place in a county where 93 percent of residents lived in rural areas at the last census. Drives here run long over Ozark ground: ridgetop soils with a fragipan over red cherty clay, which holds water once it is wet. We crown, compact and pave. Free estimate at (866) 490-7680, with 25% off.

Driveway paving in West Sullivan

A drive running a few hundred feet off Highway WW or a county road collects water down the wheel tracks and ruts out. We fix the shape first, crowning the surface and cutting shoulders so runoff leaves, then dig out the soft ground and compact rock in layers. Hot mix finishes at a typical 2 to 3 inches compacted for home use, thicker where trucks turn in.

Parking lot paving in West Sullivan

Shop pads, church lots, equipment yards and small business lots near the interstate take trailers and delivery trucks. We build the base to the heaviest of those, pave in lifts and grade to a planned outlet. Older asphalt in sound shape can often be patched and seal coated instead of replaced, once it has cured well.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Private lanes and farm access roads in this part of Crawford County climb and fall with the ground. A crown, solid shoulders and culverts sized to the ditch keep water out of the surface. Chip seal and recycled millings work for a long lane with light traffic; asphalt suits one that carries trucks.

General asphalt paving & repair

Farm yards, equipment pads, church lots and long country drives around West Sullivan each carry different loads. We size the base and the asphalt to the traffic that will actually use it, then compact every layer so it stays put.

Built for West Sullivan's ground

Ozark uplands here sit on cherty dolomite, limestone and sandstone, with springs and caves in the bedrock and a fragipan under many ridgetop soils. A fragipan holds water above it. Add freeze-thaw winters and the base fails first, so we dig out weak material and compact rock in lifts before paving.

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

West Sullivan paving questions

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

Can you pave a driveway on a slope?

Yes. Slope helps drainage as long as the water is steered. We shape the surface so runoff crosses to the shoulders instead of running down the middle, compact the base in layers so it does not creep, and add depth at the turns. We look at the whole run during the free estimate.

Do you work in Sullivan, Bourbon and St. Clair too?

Yes. We pave in West Sullivan, Sullivan, St. Cloud, Bourbon, Stanton and the rest of this stretch of the I-44 corridor, plus greater St. Louis on both sides of the river. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off the work.

Is my part of Crawford County in your service area?

Yes. We work in West Sullivan and throughout Crawford 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.

What about the culvert and ditches along my lane?

They matter more than the asphalt. A West Sullivan lane that holds water at the culvert will fail there first, so we look at ditches, the culvert and the crown before quoting the surface.
