The Overlay Process

The asphalt overlay process involves the following steps:

1. Repairing Major Defective Areas: Prior to overlay, major defects in the existing asphalt surface are repaired to ensure a smooth and even overlay application.

2. Milling the Existing Asphalt: Milling is performed to establish the proper and even finished height of the pavement. This step is particularly important along concrete edges and tight drainage areas.

2. Installation of New Asphalt Layer: A new layer of asphalt is then installed over the existing surface, creating a fresh, stable pavement surface that enhances both appearance and functionality.

F.A.Q.

To the right are answers to some commonly asked questions about our overlay services.

What is asphalt overlay, and how does it differ from other paving methods?

Asphalt overlay is a cost-effective paving method used to rejuvenate deteriorating asphalt surfaces. Unlike complete reconstruction, which involves removing and replacing the entire pavement, overlay involves installing a new layer of asphalt over the existing surface. This approach is ideal for situations where the underlying structure of the pavement remains sound.

How do I know if asphalt overlay is suitable for my pavement?

Asphalt overlay is typically recommended when large areas of an asphalt surface have deteriorated but the underlying structure is still intact. Signs such as minor cracking, surface wear, and minor depressions may indicate that overlay is a viable option. Contact our paving specialists for a thorough assessment to determine if overlay is right for your project.

What are the benefits of choosing asphalt overlay?

Asphalt overlay offers several advantages, including cost-effectiveness, minimal disruption, and improved appearance. By adding a new layer of asphalt over the existing surface, overlay provides a fresh, rejuvenated look while extending the pavement’s lifespan. Additionally, overlay projects can often be completed with minimal disruption to your operations, reducing downtime and inconvenience.

What measures do you take to ensure the longevity of the asphalt pavement?

Our construction process is designed to maximize the durability and longevity of the asphalt pavement. This includes thorough site preparation, precise grading and compaction, and the use of high-quality materials. Additionally, routine maintenance such as sealcoating and crack sealing can further extend the lifespan of the pavement.

Are there any specific maintenance requirements for the new asphalt parking lot?

While asphalt pavement is inherently low-maintenance, regular upkeep is essential to preserve its appearance and performance. We offer a maintenance program where we will come out to your property once a year and recommened services if there is any damage or deterioration.
