RESURFACING SERVICES

We use grading as a general term to describe the preparation of a gravel base; whether it will be used as a sub base for asphalt or just a simple gravel area to on which to park or drive. Typically gravel alone is found in rural areas or in situations when hard surfaces cannot be used.

We also can excavate new areas to enlarge the area or remove old asphalt /concrete prior to new asphalt installations. This can be beneficial in some instances. Most importantly, grading means placing the gravel to the correct elevations so that the new pavement will drain properly and builds a strong foundation for the weight of its intended use.

We have invested in the latest equipment to offer milling to our residential and commercial customers. In asphalt terms it is the use of a machine armed with diamond bit teeth to grind off a layer of old asphalt in order to prepare for the installation of a new one. Milling is a very effective way to prepare for joining new pavement with old pavement or when tying into concrete such as gutter pans, sidewalks and entrance aprons. Although it is used more on parking lots and roadways, it can be used effectively in some residential projects. Milling increases efficiency, productivity, and even the quality of which the new pavement can be installed.

Seal coating generally means to rehabilitate or perform preventive maintenance to an existing surface. This is accomplished by cleaning and treating oil spots if necessary; repairing cracks by applying a separate crack sealant material; removing areas that are too broken and replacing them with new asphalt patches; then applying either a water or oil based asphalt sealant (depending on the condition of the pavement, the type of use and what goal the pavement owner is trying to achieve).

We offer a variety of methods, so whether you have a large or small project, we will take the time to discuss with you which material best suits your needs.
