What is Asphalt Milling and Reclamation?
What Is Milling?
Instead of replacing existing asphalt with entirely new asphalt, milling replaces only the top layer. This method is quicker and more cost-effective than a full excavation.
The Process
Preparation
We remove any obstructions, clean the surface, and assess the condition of the existing pavement.
Milling
We use special equipment to remove the top layer, a process that involves grinding the asphalt material so it can be repurposed.
Surface Repair
We repair any damaged areas in the subgrade to lay a strong foundation for the new asphalt layer.
Application
We apply the fresh asphalt to the pavement and compress it.
Finishing & Marking
We apply line striping and other road markings.
By resurfacing only the top layer, rather than completely reconstructing the road or pavement, this approach can be more cost-effective and less disruptive to traffic. It extends the life of the pavement and provides a smoother driving surface.
What Is Reclamation?
Reclamation builds a new foundation for a fresh layer of asphalt. This process doesn’t require asphalt excavation or removal, saving you valuable time and money.
The Process
Grind & Blend
We grind and blend the leftover asphalt material with soil and aggregates to strengthen the pavement’s foundation.
