Asphalt Paving Services We Offer

Whether it’s resurfacing an existing lot or creating a brand-new surface, we handle everything from start to finish, delivering the best results for you and your business.

Overlay & Resurfacing

If your parking lot or driveway is showing signs of wear but has a solid foundation, resurfacing is a great solution. It’s a cost-effective way to restore smoothness, enhance durability, and improve drainage. We’ll add a fresh layer of asphalt over the existing surface to make it look and function like new, extending the life of your pavement without the expense of a full replacement.

Expansion & New Paving

Expanding your business or building from the ground up? U.S. Pavement is here to lay the foundation with new asphalt paving services. We’ll work with you to design and implement a solution that meets your specific needs and complies with local regulations, giving your property a strong, durable surface from the very start.

Reclamation & Repaving

If your asphalt has seen better days, reclamation and repaving might be the best way forward. We’ll remove the old, damaged asphalt and prepare the surface for a fresh layer, ensuring your parking lot or roadway is restored to a smooth, durable surface that lasts for years.

Why an Area Might Need Repaving

An area may need to be repaved if the soil beneath it, also called the subgrade, is weak or damaged. For pavement to last, it must have a sturdy foundation. Consider repaving rather than repairs when:

The Asphalt Paving Process

Behind every paving project is our efficient and thorough paving process, designed to deliver long-lasting results that support your day-to-day business. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how we do it:

Install a Drainage System

Proper drainage is crucial to maintaining your asphalt in the long run. Before we lay the new surface, we ensure that water flows away from the area, preventing pooling and damage from standing water.

Milling

Milling involves removing the top layer of damaged asphalt. With the old asphalt removed, the new layer can bond effectively to the surface beneath, enhancing the pavement’s overall durability.

Lay the Asphalt

Once the surface is prepared, we lay down fresh asphalt. Our team ensures the new surface is completely smooth, even, and of the right thickness to meet the highest standards of quality.

Compaction

After the asphalt is laid, we compact it to eliminate air pockets and ensure a durable, stable surface. This step is essential as it creates a strong, resilient surface that can withstand the daily heavy traffic and Boston’s weather.

Install Markings & Finishing Touches

Finally, we add the finishing touches. This includes brand new striping for parking spaces, lanes, and any other necessary markings to guide and maintain safe traffic. This not only makes your parking lot fully functional for the busy day-to-day but keeps it looking professional as well.

What Causes Asphalt Deterioration?

Even the strongest of asphalt falls apart over time, but understanding the causes behind the breakdown can help prevent the last costly repairs down the line. Here are the main causes of asphalt damage:

Frequent Traffic

Traffic is the number #1 culprit behind asphalt deterioration. Over time, the constant pressure and weight from vehicles quickly wear down the pavement surface, causing cracks and surface degradation. High-traffic areas, especially busy commercial spaces, require regular maintenance to keep the asphalt functional and safe.

Oil and Chemical Spills

Spills from vehicles, especially oil, gas, and chemicals, can break down asphalt over time. These substances penetrate the surface, weakening the material and causing cracks to form.

Poor Pavement Maintenance

Going without regular maintenance, such as crack filling, patching, and sealcoating, can cause those small surface blemishes to snowball into something much bigger. However, with regular upkeep, you keep your asphalt functional, but also spare yourself from costly repairs or replacements.

Extreme Weather (Freeze-Thaw Cycle / UV Rays)

Boston’s freeze-thaw cycles and harsh winters can really take a toll on your asphalt. Water seeps into small cracks, freezes, and expands, making the cracks bigger with each freeze. Plus, the strong UV rays during the summer can dry out the asphalt, making it brittle and prone to further damage from the above factors.

How to Ensure Asphalt Longevity

While our experts are more than happy to help, we understand the stress that comes from sudden paving problems. Thankfully, taking the proper steps to maintain your asphalt will help extend its life, keep it looking great, and spare you from expensive repairs.

Regular asphalt care should consist of:

Crackfilling & Patching

Filling cracks and patching damaged areas as soon as they appear helps prevent water from entering and causing further damage. Addressing small issues early on keeps your asphalt in top shape and prevents more extensive repairs later.

Proper Drainage System

A good drainage system directs water away from the pavement surface, preventing pooling that leads to cracks and erosion. By preventing water from settling, this system plays a vital role in protecting your pavement from long-term damage caused by factors like rain.

Routine Maintenance & Sealcoating

Routine maintenance, including regular sealcoating, is one of the best ways to prolong the life of your asphalt. Sealcoating acts as a protective layer, shielding your pavement from the damaging effects of water, UV rays, and chemicals. Routine sealcoating every few years can extend asphalt’s lifespan.
