Walkways & Driveways

Asphalt paving looks better, lasts longer and can be installed quickly. Most people take roads and driveways for granted, and don’t consider all the benefits offered when the right material is used. When properly implemented asphalt is better for overall driveability, appearance, your budget, and the environment.

Asphalt is 100% Recyclable

Asphalt is the most recycled product in America. We recycle 100% of the asphalt removed from job sites as well as concrete and asphalt shingles. When it comes to asphalt, not only is using recycled material better for the environment, it’s better for the product as well. The recycled asphalt mix is stronger, longer-lasting, and has a stronger rut resistance than virgin asphalt mix.

Asphalt is Durable and Long Lasting

An asphalt driveway or road installed by an experienced asphalt contractor will usually last about 15-20 years, that estimated lifespan will lengthen if you perform regular preventative maintenance to your surface.

Asphalt is Good for Noise Reduction

Asphalt pavement is the “quiet” pavement option. Due to its open-graded surfaces, fine-graded surfaces and the materials used asphalt basically absorbs road noise.

Asphalt is Cost-Efficient

Asphalt is generally much more cost-efficient to install compared to concrete. One of the main components of any asphalt mix is crude oil. Because of the fluctuations in crude oil prices can cause fluctuations in asphalt prices.

Asphalt Projects Can Be Completed Quickly

The materials needed to create asphalts are easy to get ahold of and able to be turned into asphalt very quickly.

Asphalt Paving is Good for Water Drainage

All asphalt is good for water drainage, but some types of asphalt are better than others. Porous asphalt allows water to pass through the asphalt into a specially prepared gravel base, which helps filter the water back into the ground. Other asphalts are laid specifically to help redirect water to grassy areas or other places where they can be well-managed.

Asphalt Paving is Safe

Asphalt contributes to the safety of your property in a number of ways. Because asphalt has water managing qualities, it helps with skid resistance, and the dark color helps melt ice and snow, making your pavement safer for cars and pedestrians alike.
