Western Asphalt Maintenance

read morePaving requires not only the right equipment and materials, but the correct assessment of what is needed to provide the best solution. This includes establishing the proper sub grade and crushed rock base for the asphalt. Each needs to be the correct thickness and compaction. Since the sub grade and base provide support for the asphalt itself, getting these right are crucial to the final result and long term life of your pavement.

Asphalt will also deteriorate and ravel away. Seal coating not only makes your pavement look new again, it also protects it from oxidation and petroleum spills. Because it makes the surface less porous, it also makes asphalt easier to keep clean. We recommend seal coating to be done every 3 to 5 years depending on weather conditions and traffic. The usual time to stay off newly seal coated surfaces is 24 hours.
