Driveways, apartment lots and alley aprons across Midtown — staged around campus schedules and rental turnover.
Tell us about the surface and we respond the same business day.
Midtown is the stretch between downtown and the north side, and it might be the most mixed part of Springfield. Drury University sits in the middle of it, Central High School anchors the west side, and the streets around them run from big old family homes to student rentals to small apartment buildings and churches. Every one of those has pavement, and every kind of pavement problem shows up here.
I run the crew at Springfield Asphalt Contractors, and Midtown work looks different from job to job. One week it is a homeowner on Washington Avenue whose driveway has finally given up. The next it is an apartment lot off Benton that needs patching, sealing and fresh striping before the school year starts.
Parking pressure is the first thing. Around Drury and Central High, every drive and lot gets used hard, and a lot of them get used by more cars than they were built for. Pavement wears where wheels turn, and in Midtown wheels turn constantly.
Age is the second. Much of the housing stock here is close to a century old, and the drives, aprons and alleys behind them have been patched over and over. Old patches are usually where new cracks start.
Water is the third. Older properties often drain toward the house or toward the alley instead of into the street, and standing water is what kills a surface from underneath.
Apartment lots that need patching and restriping between tenants. Driveways on Washington and Benton that were narrow to begin with and are now breaking at the edges. Church lots near Division Street that can only be closed on a weekday. Rental property drives that landlords want sealed on a schedule instead of replaced all at once. Alley aprons behind older homes where the trash truck turns.

We are a family owned business in Springfield, Missouri. Our crew is trained on the equipment, insured, and licensed to work in the city. The person who quotes your job is on site while it runs.
In a neighborhood with this many students, renters and kids walking to school, we take the site safety part seriously. Cones and barricades go up properly, walking routes stay open, and hot material never sits unattended near a sidewalk.
Our reviews are on our Google Business Profile if you want to see what other customers have said.
Send a photo and we will tell you straight — repair, seal coat or repave. Free written estimate either way.
We work all of Midtown, roughly between Chestnut Expressway to the south, Division Street to the north, National Avenue to the east and Grant Avenue to the west. That includes Washington Avenue, Benton Avenue, Robberson Avenue, Clay Street and the cross streets around the Drury campus and Central High School.
From here we are also a few minutes from downtown, Woodland Heights, Grant Beach and the Commercial Street district, so we often line up work on several nearby properties in the same week.
Lots around Drury and Central are easiest to work in summer or over a break. If we have to do it mid-semester, we stage it in sections so parking never fully disappears.
Some blocks are packed by evening. We schedule early starts where that matters so our equipment is not fighting for room.
Plenty of Midtown properties are served from the alley. Those aprons take the worst beating and are usually the first thing worth repairing.
Landlords here often want work done between leases. Tell us your turnover window and we will build the schedule around it.
New asphalt needs about three days before vehicles park on it, and sealer needs to stay dry overnight. In a busy rental lot, that has to be planned, not assumed. City street work in the area is listed by City of Springfield Public Works.
Estimates are free and the number is written down before we start. If a patch and a seal coat will hold your lot for another few years, I will quote that instead of a repave. Property managers in this neighborhood own more than one building, and I would rather do five honest small jobs than one oversold big one.
