The Driveways in Rock Falls

About a third of Rock Falls predates the Second World War: 31.8 percent was up before 1940 and 50.6 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.

85.9 percent of the homes are detached houses, with the balance in duplexes and small multi-unit buildings. The single-family drives are the long ones and the multi-unit surfaces are the ones that take more traffic than they were built for. Both are worth doing and they are not priced the same way.

Rock Falls is a named community rather than an incorporated village, so it has no village hall, no separate government, and no published population estimate: the Census counts legal entities and this is not one. The 85 homes here are what we are actually talking about. Drives sit on township roads more often than on a street grid, which usually means they are longer.

Questions From Rock Falls

What people here call us about, answered straight.

More questions answered
Is a driveway this old in Rock Falls worth sealing at all?
Often yes, and it is worth a look rather than a guess, because a place with 31.8 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.
Why does the end of our driveway break up before the rest of it?
Because it is doing two jobs. Out here a drive meets a town road rather than a curb, so the asphalt has nothing beside it holding it in, and that apron takes the plow, the road salt and every vehicle that turns onto it. Edges and aprons fail first almost everywhere in township. They are also the cheapest part to put right if it is caught before the base under them goes.
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 Rock Falls from Eau Claire, and does the drive change the price?
About 11.9 miles southwest, in Dunn 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.
