Remove the Old Asphalt
Deteriorated asphalt is removed so the existing driveway base and underlying conditions can be evaluated.
Evaluate the Existing Base
The driveway base plays an important role in supporting the new asphalt surface and should be evaluated during replacement.
Prepare, Grade & Compact
The driveway is prepared according to the property conditions, including grading and compaction where required.
Install New Asphalt
The replacement driveway receives new asphalt after the underlying preparation work has been completed.
