The Driveways in Lima

About a third of Town of Lima predates the Second World War: 32 percent was up before 1940 and 41.1 percent before 1960. Drives on stock that old tend to be narrow, often steep where they meet the road, and they take more hand cutting than a spray job on a modern subdivision. Crack filling is frequently the whole job rather than a step in one, because hot rubber into everything that has opened up will buy years on a surface that is otherwise sound.

Almost everything here is a detached house, 92.7 percent of the stock, so there is very little shared surface and almost no apartment parking. What that means for a quote is that the square footage varies more between two neighbors here than it does across a whole street in a city. Nothing gets priced off an average.

This is township, not village. There is no street grid in the Town of Lima and no curb to stop the asphalt, which is the single biggest difference between a rural drive and a town one. Without a curb the edge is unsupported, so it breaks away first, and the apron where the drive meets the town road takes the plow and the traffic together. Both are fixable. Neither gets found by looking at the middle of the drive.

How Far Out Lima Is

Roughly 20.8 miles southwest of Eau Claire, which is a normal working distance rather than a special trip. If several places on the same road want theirs done, mention it when you call. The estimate is free, and the number you approve is the number you pay.

To place it: the nearest places we cover are Town of Canton about 4.3 miles off, Town of Albany about 6.1 miles, and Durand about 6.2 miles. All of them are inside the area, so if your road runs between two of them you are inside it too.

Questions From Lima

What people here call us about, answered straight.

More questions answered
Is a driveway this old in Lima worth sealing at all?
Often yes, and it is worth a look rather than a guess, because a place with 32 percent of its housing built before 1940 has more genuinely worn-out surfaces than a newer one does. Press the cracked areas with your foot. If the surface flexes, the base under it has failed and sealer will not help; those sections have to be cut out. If it is solid underfoot and simply gray and cracked on top, it is a good candidate.
Our address is a fire number on a town road. Do you still come out?
Yes. Most of the land in Pepin County is township rather than village, and most of the driveways out there are longer than anything in town. That does not put a job out of reach and it does not change how it is priced. It does mean the drive gets measured rather than estimated by eye, so the number you get is for your driveway rather than for an average one.
How much does a long rural driveway cost compared to one in town?
More, because there is more of it, and 92.7 percent of the homes here are detached houses on their own drive. What we will not do is guess at the length. A rural drive gets measured, and the number is for that drive rather than for an average one. The estimate is free, so finding out costs nothing.
How far is Town of Lima from Eau Claire, and does the drive change the price?
About 20.8 miles southwest, in Pepin County. The estimate is free either way, and the number you approve is the number you pay. If several places on the same road want theirs done, mention it when you call.
