Trust Goode Paving for Exceptional Repairs like Asphalt Overlay

To get the best for your unique property, it’s important to understand this vital repair process. Let our pavement experts explain how we approach these kinds of projects.

When is this service appropriate for a worn parking lot or driveway?
When budget constraints limit a complete reconstruction, overlaying provides a cost-effective alternative. It’s suitable for various situations, including:

• Cracks: Provides a new, smooth layer to cover extensive but shallow cracks.
• General Wear and Tear: Refreshes the appearance and functionality of pavement damaged by weathering and wear.
• Faded Surface: Gives oxidized pavement a fresh and new look.

Asphalt Overlay on Concrete
In specific situations, overlay can be applied to a concrete surface. Goode Paving understands the intricacies involved in this kind of service. For example, the team must address expansion joints to prevent shifting, cracking, or bumps.

Overlay Steps

1. Pavement Inspection: Not every paved surface is suitable for overlay, so our pavement experts need to assess the property thoroughly. Extensive structural damage, large potholes, root damage, or improper drainage may require a different type of asphalt repair or paving.
2. Milling: This process removes the damaged top layer to ensure a seamless bond with the new material. A milling machine grinds down 1 to 3 inches, and the material is sent to a recycling plant for integration into new construction.
3. Base Repair: Areas with potholes, rutting, or sinking may necessitate base reconstruction. Multiple lifts of aggregate and asphalt are used to rebuild the base layer, preventing recurring issues.
4. Asphalt Paving: A new layer is applied on top of the existing surface after surface preparation. The thickness varies but typically ranges from 1.5″ to 2″.
