Milling and Resurfacing Services For Sustainable Pavement
Asphalt milling is the removal of existing worn or damaged asphalt pavement. If you want to maintain or repair existing asphalt without spending time and money on a full excavation, removal, and installation, milling is the way to go.
The Asphalt Milling Process
We use an asphalt milling machine to remove a certain depth of the existing pavement’s surface and grind the top layer. This process produces a smoother and more even surface that’s ideal for asphalt resurfacing. Then, we overlay it, which involves filling the hollow space with new asphalt.
What Is Reclamation?
Asphalt reclamation, also known as full-depth reclamation, creates a stronger base layer on which new asphalt can be poured. This method reduces operating costs by eliminating the need to excavate and haul away old asphalt.
The Reclamation Process
We use specialized equipment to grind and blend the remaining pavement material, along with underlying soil and aggregates. This process creates a stronger foundation for the new asphalt layer.
Benefits of Asphalt Milling & Reclamation
Repairs can’t always correct your pavement problems. Sometimes, the existing pavement has sustained enough damage to require an entirely new pavement to replace it.
The severity of the damage is a key factor in choosing between a simple resurfacing and a total pavement and sub-grade reconstruction. Our team will perform a core test to assess the condition of the existing sub-grade.
