How Our Asphalt Installation Process Works

1. Site Evaluation & Planning

  • Inspect existing conditions and subgrade
  • Determine required thickness and base depth
  • Check drainage to prevent standing water
  • Identify problem areas (weak subgrade, tree roots, etc.)
  • Provide a written plan and estimate

2. Demolition & Excavation
If needed, we:

  • Remove old asphalt, concrete, or gravel
  • Excavate soft or unstable soil
  • Haul away and dispose of debris properly

3. Base Preparation
A strong base is critical for asphalt longevity.

  • Install crushed stone or aggregate base
  • Spread evenly to correct depth
  • Compact in multiple passes with heavy equipment
  • Shape proper crown/slope for water runoff

4. Asphalt Installation

  • Deliver hot mix asphalt at the correct temperature
  • Machine-place asphalt for uniform thickness
  • Hand-work edges, tight spaces, and transitions
  • Compact with steel drum and pneumatic rollers
  • Check for smoothness and proper drainage

5. Curing & Use Guidelines

  • Typically walkable within a few hours
  • Light vehicle use usually after 24–48 hours (conditions dependent)
  • Avoid sharp turns, heavy loads, and parking in the same spots for the first week
