Why Does New Construction Need Asphalt Paving?


Asphalt Driveway specializes in all new construction asphalt installation. From small, light traffic parking lots to heavy duty truck terminals requiring deep strength paving, our professional and knowledgeable technicians will design and construct the right specs for your needs.

Geographic location can play a significant role when deciding what material is best for new driveway construction: especially if you live in cold or wet climates. Here are 3 reasons why asphalt is the best option for home-builders or buyers in the Midwest:

·        Climate: Asphalt driveways are incredibly common in northern climates because of the material’s pliable characteristics. This is important because during freeze and thaw cycles, asphalt is much more forgiving than other driveway materials such as concrete or interlocking pavers. Additionally, the black color of asphalt soaks in the sun’s heat and melts snow faster during snowy winter weather. Because of asphalt’s incredible ability to contract and expand without damage, it is a cost-effective way to pave steep inclines or sloped areas in colder climates.

·        Quick Installation: A newly best asphalt paving contractors can be installed driveway by their trained professional in a relatively shore amount of time- typically a day or two once the sub-grade preparation takes place. Newly constructed asphalt driveways can be driven on at least 24 hours after installation. Asphalt hardens over time - taking a full year for a new driveway to fully cure. Minor scarring to the surface may occur within the first year; especially on hot sunny days.

·        Cost Effective: Asphalt driveways are one of the most cost-effective options for new home driveway construction. Some regular maintenance is required to keep the asphalt driveway in good condition. Cracks should be sealed as soon as possible using asphalt sealants and sealing should take place every 3-5 years to maintain the best look and function for your driveway. Both crack-filling and sealing are easy and cost effective maintenance repairs and upkeep.

Crack Sealing on the pavement surface

  Crack sealing is a method in which hot sealant is applied to working cracks to prevent water intrusion.Crack seal products are used to fill individual pavement cracks to prevent entry of water or other non-compressible substances such as sand, dirt, rocks or weeds. Crack sealant is typically used on early stage longitudinal cracks, transverse cracks, reflection cracks and block cracks. Fatigue cracks are most often too extensive to warrant filling with crack sealer; they usually require an area treatment such as a patch or reconstruction. Crack filler material is typically some form of rubberized asphalt or sand slurry. In every crack seal estimate, Asphalt Driveway includes routing, a process performed before cracks are sealed. Routing is done with a piece of equipment that expands all cracks to ¼” wide, which creates a reservoir for the rubberized crack sealant to sit in. Next, crews clean out the cracks to allow the best adhesion possible. Finally, rubber is installed into the...
