Full on Asphalt
Do you want to fully improve your residential or commercial property? Whatever it is, you have to consider asphalt grading as one of your project’s main concerns. Why? Read on to thoroughly find out more about this service, and the many benefits it can bring to your property.
Firm Asphalt
When it comes to asphalt, a grading company can use a wide range of materials. For example, they can use a hot mix of asphalt, which is made from heating up bitumen until it’s thick enough to spread. This method is the most efficient, but it comes with its downsides. Hot mix asphalt requires a lot of water, which means you’ll have to find a way to cool the asphalt so it can harden properly.
An Asphalt Filler
Regular asphalt can be used as a filler in asphalt driveways, but it has a much shorter lifespan. It usually lasts for only 10 to 15 years before it needs to be replaced again. The gasoline that’s mixed into regular asphalt breaks down the asphalt and makes it porous. It also evaporates quickly, leaving your driveway susceptible to water damage. To make matters worse, the asphalt that’s used as filler is often made from low-quality asphalt, making it more susceptible to damage. Extensive research has gone into finding an asphalt additive that can increase the life of the asphalt. Asphalt additives have come a long way since their introduction in the 1950s. Today, several types of asphalt additives can increase the life of asphalt by years.
