Paving across Franklin County
Franklin County is southern Illinois coal country, rolling uplands and broad, nearly level bottoms in the Big Muddy River basin around Rend Lake. We pave driveways, parking lots, private roads and farm lanes here, in Sesser, Mulkeytown and the ground around them. I-57 runs north to south through the county and Route 14 crosses east to west, meeting at Benton.
Rend Lake covers about 18,900 acres along the Franklin and Jefferson county line and filled in 1973, which puts trailer and camper traffic on local drives through the season. Route 154 bridges the lake just before it meets I-57, and Wayne Fitzgerrell State Recreation Area sits on the shore. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate and 25% off.
Ground and drainage
Large areas of this county are nearly level soils formed in floodplain silt or old slackwater-lake clay, and many of them drain poorly by nature. On the rolling uplands, heavy rain washes sediment down onto local roads. Both problems come back to where the water goes. We proof the subgrade, compact rock base in lifts and grade so runoff leaves the surface.

Franklin County paving questions
Does a boat trailer need a heavier driveway?
It helps. A trailer parked in one spot all season puts concentrated weight on small contact points, so we add base and asphalt under that area rather than building the whole drive heavier. Tell us where it sits and we will plan the section for it.
What can you do with a lot that holds water?
First we find out why. Usually it is grade, a failed base or both. We can regrade to an outlet, rebuild the base where it has gone soft and pave with fall that carries water off. Patching over standing water only buys you a season.
