Mix Delivery and Temperature
We load and deliver the asphalt mix in a way that limits segregation and maintains a suitable mix temperature. If the mix cools too much in transit, it will not compact correctly, leaving voids that shorten the life of the pavement.
Laying a Uniform Mat
On larger repaving jobs, we use a material transfer vehicle to keep the paving equipment continuously supplied. We keep the paver moving at a steady speed with a constant head of material and correctly set screed to produce a uniform mat. Stopping and starting creates bumps, so continuous movement is required for a smooth, level finish.
Compaction and Weather
Once the asphalt is laid, we run a pneumatic-tired roller over the fresh mat to knead the aggregates together and seal the surface. This tight finish is critical in Dalton, where periodic heavy-rain events test drainage and grading. A properly compacted, well-graded driveway sheds water instead of letting it pool and degrade the base.
Replacement and Repaving Costs
Asphalt driveway replacement or repaving runs $4 to $10 per square foot. The final price depends on how much base work is required, the thickness of the new asphalt layer, and the logistics of getting equipment into the site. Tearing out an old, failed driveway and rebuilding the aggregate base pushes the project toward the higher end of that range.
