Sealcoating and Asphalt in Fall Creek, WI

One decade built Fall Creek. 21.7 percent of the housing dates from the 1970s, which is a lot of driveways reaching the same milestone in the same few years. That is useful to know before you call: what the drive two doors down needed is probably close to what yours needs, and the work is worth grouping rather than spreading over five seasons.

76.4 percent detached houses, which for this area is a meaningful share of something else: duplexes, small apartment buildings, and the parking that goes with them. Those surfaces are quoted like small commercial lots rather than like driveways, and the bid says which areas get worked so a manager can tell residents what to expect.

Fall Creek is a village of 1,391 people and 492 homes, which is the size where a street grid and open country meet inside the same few blocks. That produces two different jobs. In the village the drives are short, close together and often share access with a neighbor. A mile out they run to a town road and are measured rather than eyeballed. Neither is priced like the other.

Fall Creek sits on US Highway 12 about twelve miles east of Eau Claire, with I-94 another twelve miles on and County Road K running north toward Highway 29. The village takes its name from the rapids on the creek that runs through it, and the Eau Claire River passes just to the north.
