Our Meticulous
Asphalt Paving Process
At City Pave, we pride ourselves on adhering to the highest industry standards, ensuring longevity and optimal performance for every project. Our comprehensive process includes:
Site Preparation and Grading: We begin by thoroughly clearing debris, vegetation, or existing pavement. Our team then precisely grades and levels the subgrade to ensure proper drainage and a stable foundation. This vital step prevents future water damage, cracking, and uneven settling.
Robust Base Layer Installation: The backbone of any durable asphalt surface is a strong base. We install a robust layer, typically compacted crushed stone or gravel, to distribute loads effectively and act as a barrier against frost heave – a common concern in our climate. Proper compaction of this layer is paramount.
Applying Prime Coat (if applicable): For certain base materials, a prime coat (liquid asphalt product) is applied to penetrate the base, bind loose particles, and ensure superior adhesion with subsequent asphalt layers.
High-Quality Hot Mix Asphalt Application: We use carefully proportioned hot mix asphalt (HMA), produced at optimal temperatures. Our skilled operators utilize specialized paving equipment to spread the HMA in uniform, even layers, achieving the precise thickness required for your project.
Critical Compaction for Durability: Once laid, the HMA is immediately compacted using heavy rollers. This crucial step achieves the required density, removing air voids and ensuring a smooth, consolidated, and highly durable surface that resists rutting, cracking, and water penetration.
Rigorous Quality Control and Finishing: Throughout the entire process, our team maintains strict quality control, monitoring temperatures, layer thickness, and compaction levels. We pay meticulous attention to detail, ensuring proper slopes for drainage, clean edges, and a superior finish that reflects our commitment to excellence.
