The Driveways in Altoona

No single decade carries Altoona. 5.8 percent predates 1940, 31.8 percent has gone up since 2000, and everything in between is represented. That matters more than it sounds. In a place built in one burst the driveways fail together and the advice is largely the same. Here the house next door can be thirty years older than yours, and what its drive needs is not what yours needs.

Only 43.6 percent of the housing here is detached, which is low for this part of the state and means shared parking is a real part of the picture. Multi-unit surfaces take more vehicles than a drive does, wear at the entrances and the aisles rather than in the middle, and want striping thought about at the same time as sealing rather than afterwards.

Altoona is a city of 9,302 people with 4,037 homes in it, which is enough that the residential and commercial work here are genuinely different conversations. Driveways are one trade. Lots with striping, storm structures and truck loading in them are another, and they get walked and priced as such rather than quoted by the square foot off a map.

Altoona sits immediately east of Eau Claire, close enough that Fairfax Street is most of what separates them. Lake Altoona and the Eau Claire River form the northern edge and Otter Creek the southern one. The US 53 bypass opened in 2006 with an interchange at River Prairie Drive, and essentially everything new in town has been built around that interchange since.

Questions From Altoona

What people here call us about, answered straight.

More questions answered
Our neighbor was told their driveway was past sealing. Does that mean ours is?
Probably not, and this is the kind of place where that comes up most. The housing in Altoona spans every decade rather than clustering in one, so two drives on the same road can be thirty years apart in age and construction. We quote them separately rather than by road.
Can you work a Altoona lot without shutting the business for a day?
Usually, and it is the first thing to talk about rather than the last. Sealer needs the surface clear and about 24 hours before traffic goes back on it, so on a small lot with shared access the answer is often a section at a time. That is a scheduling conversation, and it goes better in the spring than in the week you want it done.
We share a driveway with the neighbors. How does that get quoted?
As one surface, with the bid saying plainly which areas are included, because that is the document everybody sharing the cost has to agree on. Shared drives and small multi-unit surfaces wear differently from a single-family drive: the traffic is heavier and it concentrates at the entrance. They are worth sealing sooner for the same reason.
How far is Altoona from Eau Claire, and does the drive change the price?
About 3 miles southeast, in Eau Claire 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.
