Asphalt Paving

Asphalt paving is a massive, multi step job, as anyone who has ever had to suffer a road construction project in their neighborhood will attest to. Demolition is the first step, regardless of whether you have a parking lot that needs to be rebuilt or a green space that you wish to turn into a parking lot. Anything blocking the road, such as already-existing asphalt or cement, plants, rocks, rubbish, etc., must be removed.

Because asphalt is recyclable, any product we remove from your property will be used to make other asphalt products like pavement and shingles.

The land must then be adequately graded and slanted. The lot should be flat, but not completely flat — there should be a tiny slope that channels rainwater runoff so that stagnant water does not accumulate on your asphalt parking lot.

We install the foundation layer after the area has been removed and graded, which is crucial to the stability and lifespan of your asphalt driveway. These layers are composed of aggregates such as crushed stone or crushed concrete. Deep and compact layers are required to support the asphalt structure on top.

The base is next cemented using a liquid binder, which keeps it securely in place and prevents loose particles from being entangled in the asphalt application.

The asphalt paving doesn't start until all these processes have been completed. For your parking lot, asphalt, which is composed of aggregate, sand, and oil, offers a solid, appealing surface. But unlike with cement, the mixture is not always the same. Depending on variables such as the thickness (or absence) of a base coat, different amounts and additives are required. The asphalt's final composition is also influenced by the mixing temperature.

The joints that assist in the surface's adhesion are treated with special care. After doing this, we roll it flat to get the nicest surface we can.

Your Idaho parking lot is finished once the asphalt striping has been applied following the installation. Maintain it properly to extend its lifespan by keeping it free of debris and standing water, patching any cracks as soon as they appear, and applying sealant coats on a regular basis.
