Asphalt pavement is a mixture of bitumen (a liquid asphalt bonding agent) and aggregate (bulk materials such as sand, stone, gravel, pebbles, etc.). The larger the aggregate, the stronger and more durable the pavement. Asphalt can be installed by machine or by hand. Machine installation provides a smoother, more uniform, finish. Some hand installation is almost always required in areas that cannot accommodate the paver. The finish in these areas will be slightly different than that of machine installed areas, but a skilled raker can achieve excellent results.
Having been involved in the paving industry for many years it was my goal to establish a paving company that would provide customers with the kind of old-fashioned business values that were once taken for granted, but have now become a rarity rather than the rule. We understand that the installation of asphalt pavement is a major investment and choosing the right contractor can be a frustrating and time-consuming process. We try to provide our customers with the information and options available to help them make knowledgeable and financially sound decisions.
