Asphalt Paving & Asphalt Pavers – Preparation and Maintenance
Asphalt Paving, a Wise Choice
Whether new construction or renovating existing property driveway design, many project owners opt to install asphalt paving. When a property needs driveway or road building, utilizing asphalt paving is a wise choice for several reasons:
* Like its concrete cousin, asphalt paving material can be stamped with decorative design patterns.
* Asphalt offers mud-free traction in wet weather and easy snow removal in winter.
* A quality constructed asphalt driveway or parking lot increases cosmetic appearance as well as market value of the property.
Asphalt Advantages over Concrete
Asphalt Paving
Asphalt has advantages over concrete. Since asphalt is a petroleum-based product, it is more flexible. Therefore it is less apt to heave and crack. Secondly, asphalt driveway paving cost is substantially less than paving with concrete.
A vogue new approach to road building material is the use of cobblestone (granite) or man-made paving stones (pavers); installed in an interlocking fashion on a bed of sand.
While the cost of granite cobblestones is astronomical, homeowners can save a few dollars using asphalt pavers. Lower in cost than granite, asphalt prices are still nevertheless costly. If a paving contractor needs 10,000 pavers for a project, the cost runs about $3.00 each. Therefore, the cost for just the pavers is $30,000 dollars, in addition to any other costs incurred by grading and paving the project, plus labor.
Maintenance Considerations
Maintenance for roads and driveways surfaced with asphalt pavers is easy and economical. If a paver breaks or is moved out of place, the maintenance process is simple. It is simply removed, a new one adjusted into place, and then sand swept over and around it.
Maintenance for asphalt paving is more involved. It requires periodic sealing with an asphalt sealer; usually about once every year or two. The surface must first be prepared by sweeping or power washing away loose soil and debris.
