Advanced Asphalt Paving Techniques You Should Know About

Thinking about repaving your driveway or adding a new walkway?

At Palermo Paving, we believe that understanding the basics of asphalt can help homeowners make the best choices for their projects.

From improving curb appeal to creating safe and durable spaces for your family, here’s a guide to the latest asphalt paving techniques that may be just what you’re looking for.

The Basics of Asphalt Paving for Homeowners

If you're new to asphalt paving, the process typically starts with a few key steps:

  1. Site Preparation: Clearing away any debris and vegetation to create a clean, solid foundation.

  2. Grading: Smoothing out the area so water flows away from your home and doesn’t pool on the surface.

  3. Base Layer: Adding a strong, supportive layer of aggregate (like gravel) to keep the surface stable.

  4. Final Asphalt Layer: Laying down hot asphalt, compacting it for smoothness and strength.

But beyond this standard process, there are innovative techniques to ensure your asphalt stands the test of time.

Modern Asphalt Techniques for Your Driveway

Today’s paving options have come a long way, offering homeowners more durability, fewer repairs, and unique design options. Here are some newer techniques that may be right for you:

Durable Asphalt Options for Long-Lasting Results

For homeowners who want a driveway that lasts, consider options like polymer-modified asphalt or rubberized asphalt. These mixes include extra materials that make them more flexible and resistant to damage.

Why Choose These Options?

  • Better Durability: Perfect for cold winters and hot summers; they expand and contract without cracking.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Rubberized asphalt, for example, uses recycled tires, so you’re giving back to the environment..
