Concrete to Asphalt Conversion in Springfield, MO costs less than repouring concrete. Full demolition, base rebuild and hot mix paving. Call (417) 319-2693.

You know the slab. One panel sits an inch higher than the next, the surface is flaking, and the crack down the middle keeps getting wider every winter. Patching it just moves the problem around.
Missouri freeze thaw cycles and the clay heavy soils across Greene County push concrete panels out of level year after year. Repouring that slab usually costs far more than most property owners expect, and the new pour will face the same ground movement.
Concrete to asphalt conversion Springfield MO property owners rely on removes the failing slab, rebuilds the base underneath, and lays smooth hot mix asphalt that flexes with the soil instead of fighting it. We are a family owned, licensed and insured paving crew working out of 434 S Belcrest Ave, serving Springfield and the surrounding Greene County communities.

Not every slab needs to come out. We tell folks in Galloway and Brentwood all the time that a few hairline cracks are fine to leave alone. Replacement makes sense once the problems go below the surface. Watch for these: When two or three of these show up together, the base underneath has usually washed out or shifted. No new topping fixes that.
Some projects keep concrete where it belongs. Approach aprons, curbs and dumpster pads often stay concrete while the main surface converts to asphalt, and our team handles both sides of that scope.
Once the base is compacted, the surface goes down hot and gets rolled tight. Our asphalt paving services in Springfield MO cover residential driveways, church lots and commercial parking areas with the same mix quality.
New asphalt needs six to twelve months to cure before its first seal. After that, sealcoating in Springfield every few years blocks water intrusion and slows oxidation from summer sun.
Sometimes, yes. An asphalt overlay over concrete works when the slab is stable and drains well, but reflective cracks will follow the old joints. When panels have moved, full removal gives a much better long term result.
Most residential driveways finish in one to two days from demolition to final rolling. Larger commercial lots take longer depending on square footage and haul off volume.
Foot traffic is fine within hours. Wait about 24 to 72 hours before parking vehicles, and longer in hot Missouri weather since heat keeps the surface soft.
In almost every project we quote around Springfield, yes. Material and labor costs run lower, and future repairs cost far less than replacing concrete panels.
We do. Demolition, loading and regulated disposal of the old slab are included in your written estimate, so nothing gets left in your yard.
