3 Tips About Asphalt Reconstruction

driveway-sealer

When considering asphalt construction, there are many important professional tips that will save you time and money. Some of these tips are simple, like using driveway sealer to add protection to your driveway or avoiding bad weather during construction. Let’s review some of the most important professional tips when reconstructing an asphalt driveway.

The Importance of Protection and Maintenance

Your driveway adds considerable curb appeal and safety to your home. From protecting your vehicle’s tires from debris to providing a safe place for your family and visitors to walk, it is important that you take all the maintenance steps necessary to lengthen the life of your driveway. This helps minimize the overall cost of full reconstruction. For example, using a driveway sealer on your driveway will add an extra layer of protection against cracking and potholes. While replacing an entire driveway is not always preventable, simple steps can add extra protection.

The Road to Smooth Pavement is Laid with a Quality Mat

Before starting work, be sure that you have a professional team help you. The paver should be operating correctly, properly prepared for construction. The paver speed will affect the smoothness of the pavement. Be sure that the crew focuses on the project, especially the mat thickness.

If the paver applies material at the wrong speed, your driveway could end up with ripples and irregular mat depth. This will result in major flaws in your material thickness. The right amount of material needs to be constant. Fortunately, there are automatic feed systems to help monitor the number of materials being laid across the width of the screed. Consistent paving yields the best results.

Consistent Temperature

Monitoring mat temperature is paramount to successful and smooth paving. Compaction needs to be accomplished with enough fluidity to remove excess air. The compactor operator is responsible for maintaining the right temperate during construction. A final step is having a consistent rolling pattern. This will affect the long-term use and stability of your driveway.

Contact your local paver to discuss ways that you can ensure a smooth driveway during asphalt reconstruction.
