Hot mix asphalt offers a wide range of benefits when it comes to all your paving needs. Not only is it extremely cost effective per project, but it is environmentally sustainable, highly versatile, and offers a surface that is smooth, quiet, and very durable.

Heat and cold cause things to expand and contract, including the ground underneath your driveway, which can cause cracks in rigid surfaces. Fortunately, asphalt is strong and durable, which means it can take the movement and resist cracking.

Perpetual pavement is designed to save money in the long run because highway projects require only occasional re-surfacing, which is much easier and less costly than redoing an entire section of a road.

In the early days of your business, letting employees and customers park on the grass may have been a common practice. Since this could turn into a fire hazard during drought seasons, it’s usually a good idea to pave the parking area as soon as possible.

Many customers like to have their driveway finished, in order to improve the look and increase their home’s value. As for what results to expect from them, depending on the type of driveway and the materials used, some variations in texture and color will be seen, which is completely normal.

Paving slabs can be used for indoor and outdoor surfaces and can be composed of limestone, bluestone, sandstone, slate, marble, granite, or manufactured concrete. Each has its own unique characteristics and appearance, but granite is the most durable material for high-traffic areas.

Having a neat, well groomed driveway is one of the most important aspects of curb appeal. Even if the rest of the exterior and landscaping looks great, a rutted driveway or one filled with potholes can end up reflecting poorly on your property.

Industrial parking lots and those designed primarily for trucks are going to require a thicker pavement design. In addition, due to the heavy loads, it’s recommended that untreated aggregate base courses not be used.

It was the work of John Macadam that brought the first paved roads to the United States in 1823. The UK-born Macadam used a sloped sub-grade surface underneath a layer of angular, hand-broken aggregate with a maximum size of 75mm in two layers for a depth of about 200mm.
