Main routes: Highway 100 and Highway 109
Sixty-seven square miles makes this one of the largest cities in St. Louis County by area, and about 23 percent of residents lived in rural areas at the last census. That range shows in the work: subdivision driveways on one road, long gravel lanes on the next, and parking lots for shops, churches and schools in between.
Highway 100 enters Wildwood at the Franklin County line and becomes an expressway north of Route T, with an interchange at Highway 109. Rockwoods Reservation off 109 gives a fair picture of the ground here: ridges, ravines, springs and caves. We grade for water, compact rock in layers and pave in lifts.

A driveway here might be 40 feet or 400. The long ones climb and fall with the ridges and collect water in the wheel tracks. We set a crown or cross slope, cut shoulders so runoff has an exit, dig out soft ground and compact rock in layers before paving. Home drives typically finish at 2 to 3 inches of compacted hot mix, with added depth where trucks turn.
Driveway pavingShops, churches, schools and the community college campus off Routes 100 and 109 need lots sized to their own peaks. We plan stalls, entrances and drainage together, build base for delivery trucks and buses, and pave in lifts. A lot can be done in phases so it stays usable while the work moves across it.
Parking lot pavingPrivate roads, subdivision streets and long shared lanes are common across the rural part of the city. Each gets a compacted base, a crown that sheds water, ditches and culverts sized to the flow, and asphalt matched to the traffic. Chip seal and recycled millings are lower-cost options for a lightly used lane.
Road constructionSidewalk-to-driveway transitions, trail connections, subdivision patches and small pads are all part of the work around Wildwood. Small jobs still get a compacted base, clean saw-cut edges and a proper tie-in to the existing pavement.
Asphalt paving
The southwest corner of St. Louis County runs into Ozark foothills, and elevations reach about 900 feet at the Rockwoods Range here. Slopes, springs and karst ground mean water moves in ways a flat lot never shows. We trace where it goes, dig out soft material, compact rock in lifts and grade so it leaves.
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.
Typical ranges. Your Wildwood estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

Yes, and long drives are common here. The work is mostly shape and base: a crown so water crosses to the shoulders, soft spots dug out, and rock compacted in layers. We can pave the whole run, or start with the heaviest-use end and tie later sections in cleanly.
We build for it. A culvert sized to the flow, compacted backfill over it, and an approach graded so water does not cut around the ends. Getting that wrong is what washes out a drive in a hard rain. We look at every crossing during the free estimate.
Hot-mix asphalt needs warm air and warm ground to compact properly, and the plants serving Wildwood typically run from spring into late fall. Winter is a good time to get your estimate and book a spot for the season.
Yes, widening is routine work in Wildwood. 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.
We pave all around Wildwood, across St. Louis County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
