You are finally done for the day. You turn off the computer, hit the light switch, lock your office door and begin to make your way to the front door. You take one step out of the door and there it is…a crack in the asphalt. Oh no! What do you do? Do you panic? Why is this happening?

First of all, take a deep breathe. Asphalt is not indestructible. In fact, asphalt surfaces begin to deteriorate as soon as they are first paved. The good news is that with regular maintenance, your parking lot will last 15-20 years. However, there will come a time when it needs to be replaced.

The Milling and Paving Process

Milling and paving is one of the most cost effective ways to repair damaged parking lots or roadways. The process begins with milling, the removal of deteriorated asphalt down to a specific depth to make room for a new asphalt surface. The milling process grinds up the existing asphalt (millings) so it can be shipped off site and easily recycled. The newly milled surface is then layered with tack to prepare it for re-paving.

Viola! You have a new parking lot!
