OUR PROCESS
Our estimating team will first come to site to see and learn every want you have for your asphalt path. Our quote will note the details needed to satisfy your vision and to bring longevity and safety to your new asset.
We will be there to accomplish every part of the process, from beginning to end. If there is any digging or excavation needed, we will take care of gathering the locates before beginning the work.
On the day of the job, we will rip up and remove all old asphalt or topsoil that is in the location of the desired asphalt path. In that location, we will dig down 8-12” to prep the base with a minimum of 6 inches of heavily tamped crushed granular based gravel. The base will be filled in to reach the required elevation level, and compaction will flatten and highly densify the soil beneath which will make for a stable base underneath your newly laid asphalt path. When the base is prepped to the right level and compaction; we will then pave the path with 2” of compressed hot HL3 asphalt.
Once the job is complete, we recommend a 14-day curing time at the minimum. If necessary; you can walk on it after 24 hours, and you can drive over it after 72 hours. Refrain from parking any vehicles on it or allowing any bikes on it for at-least 14-days. In these early stages of curing, we recommended no turning car tires – always drive straight on the asphalt (for 6 months). In the summer, if possible, wait at least a month before parking on your new path. The added heat keeps the asphalt more pliable and the risk for early surface damage is higher.
