Asphalt Paving
Asphalt paving is a top choice for cost-effective, all-weather roadways, parking lots, and driveways throughout the nation. Known for its durability, flexibility, and ease of installation, asphalt provides a smooth and reliable surface that enhances safety and efficiency.
Its durability allows it to withstand heavy traffic loads, temperature fluctuations, and freeze-thaw cycles, making it a long-lasting choice when properly maintained. With routine upkeep such as seal coating and crack filling asphalt pavements can last 20 years or more while remaining smooth and functional. Asphalt’s ability to minimize road noise makes it an excellent choice for residential and commercial areas, providing both functionality and comfort.
The Asphalt Paving Process
1. Site Preparation: The area is cleared, graded, and compacted to ensure proper drainage
and a stable base.
2. Base Installation: A strong aggregate base is laid and compacted to support the asphalt
surface.
3. Asphalt Application: The asphalt mix is applied in layers and compacted for durability.
4. Final Compaction: Heavy rollers smooth and compact the surface to ensure strength and
longevity.
5. Curing & Maintenance: While asphalt is ready for light use within hours, full curing
takes a few weeks. Regular maintenance extends its lifespan.
