Paving Wilbur Park from the base up

A village of about six-hundredths of a square mile has no room for a bad driveway. Wilbur Park sits in Concord Township in south St. Louis County, tucked among Affton, St. George and Lakeshire, and nearly all of it is homes. Driveways and small parking pads are the work here.

Older south county drives usually fail from underneath: thin base rock, water that never leaves, and a winter of freezing and thawing on top of it. Patching the surface will not hold when that is the cause. We take out the broken material, dig out soft ground, compact rock in layers and place hot-mix asphalt, rolled while it is hot. Free estimate at (866) 490-7680, with 25% off the work.

Driveway paving in Wilbur Park

Most drives here are single width, running beside the house to a garage or a rear pad. The apron at the street and the open edges take the worst of it. We cut back to solid material, rebuild and compact the base where it has gone soft, then pave with hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for a home drive. The finished grade sends water toward the street.

Parking lot paving in Wilbur Park

Lot work in a village this size usually means a church lot, a small business lot or shared parking for a few units. Each gets a layout and drainage planned together, base built to the heaviest vehicle that will use it, and asphalt placed in lifts. Clear striping and a strong entrance finish the job.

Parking lot paving

Road construction & private roads

Shared drives and private lanes in south county carry trash trucks and delivery vans week after week, which is more weight than their width suggests. We compact the base in layers, crown the running surface so water leaves, and match asphalt thickness to what actually drives on it.

General asphalt paving & repair

Not every job is a full rebuild. On older Wilbur Park pavement we often start with the smaller fixes: cutting out a failed patch, resetting a sunken section by the garage, or putting a fresh overlay over a surface whose base is still sound. We tell you which of those your asphalt actually needs, and we put it in writing.

Ground, water and winter in Wilbur Park

County uplands here are mostly loess, and the county soil survey notes that local streets on them need adequate base material plus side ditches and culverts because of low strength and frost action. Freeze-thaw winters prove that every year. We grade for water first, then compact rock, then pave.

A cheap bid usually gets cheap somewhere you cannot see. Ask what depth of stone goes down, how thick the asphalt is after rolling, and who fixes it if water still stands.

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

Wilbur Park paving questions

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

How long before I can park on a new driveway?

Usually you can drive on it within a day or two, but fresh asphalt stays soft for a while and cures over weeks. Keep heavy vehicles, trailer jacks and kickstands off it early on, and avoid sharp turns from a standstill. We give you the specifics for your job.

Do you also work in Affton, Lemay and Lakeshire?

Yes. We pave throughout south St. Louis County, including Affton, Lemay, Lakeshire, St. George, Bella Villa and Marlborough, plus the City of St. Louis and the Metro East. Estimates are free, and you get 25% off the work.

Do I need to be home for the estimate?

It helps, because you know where water sits on the Wilbur Park property and how the drive gets used. If you cannot be there, tell us what you want done when you call and we will work out the best way to walk the site and go over the details with you.

Do you handle alley aprons and shared drives?

Yes. Shared drives and alley aprons in Wilbur Park get the same treatment as any other job: a firm base, a clean saw-cut edge where new meets old, and a surface shaped to move water. When a drive is shared, it helps if every owner sees the estimate.
