Project Overview

The northwest roadway of this commercial building had deteriorated significantly as all traffic must go in and out from one of the two roadways flanking this building in order to reach the rear loading docks.

This phase of the project was deemed essential for repair this year as it serves as a path for tractor-trailers that frequent the building daily.

Our task was to remove the old, damaged asphalt and replace it with a new, sturdy surface.

Detailed Commercial Paving Process

Here's a step-by-step look at how we handled the project:

1. Removing the Old Asphalt: We began by completely removing the deteriorated asphalt. This step is crucial to ensure the new layers have a solid foundation.

   

2. Excavating the Sub Base: After removing the asphalt, we identified and excavated areas of concern in the sub base. Addressing these weak spots helps prevent future problems.

3. Reinstating the Sub Base: We reinstated 8 inches of 3/4 concrete crush. This layer provides a strong base for the asphalt, ensuring longevity and durability.

4. Applying the Base Layer: We then paved the area with 2 inches of HL8 asphalt. This base layer offers a sturdy and stable foundation.

   

5. Top Coat Paving: Finally, we applied 2 inches of HL3 asphalt as the top coat. This layer provides a smooth and safe surface for vehicles.

   

   Also...De-rooting Vegetation: Vegetation overgrowth was present along the edges of the asphalt and concrete. We made sure to de-root them entirely to prevent the weeds from coming back right away.

The entire project was completed in just a day and a half. Now, the tractor-trailers that drive around the back of this building every day can enjoy a much smoother and safer ride.
