Asphalt Paving FAQ’s
-
What is asphalt made of?
Asphalt is technically a composite material, meaning that it is made up of more than one type of substance. Aggregates like crushed rocks or sand are mixed with a liquid petroleum called bitumen that gives asphalt its distinctive black color.
-
How long will my new asphalt surface last?
With proper asphalt installation, the paving itself can last up to 30 years. However, the top surface of the asphalt is subject to wear from weather and tires. Paving experts recommend applying a sealcoat once every two to three years to protect your pavement, which can extend its life for years or even decades.
-
What are the major causes of pavement deterioration?
The top causes of asphalt damage are water and temperature. Since asphalt pavement is somewhat porous, water can flow into tiny cracks and when that water freezes in winter, it expands and breaks down the asphalt. Over time, this freeze/thaw cycle can cause large cracks and pavement deterioration. Vehicle traffic can also wear away pavement markings, and the weight of vehicles can cause cracks and deterioration within the asphalt.
-
What do you do with old asphalt?
Certain processes like asphalt milling or removal can create waste asphalt. True paving professionals have environmentally friendly ways to dispose of it, as well as using it in other products.
