How To Get The Best Value Out Of Your Asphalt Paving

Are you looking for the best way to get a paving project done? Do you want to make sure that you get the most value out of your asphalt paving investment? Then, you’ve come to the right place. In this blog post we’re going to show you how to get the best results from your next project so it really pays off in terms of savings and value.

1. Hiring the Right Contractor

First things first, you need to make sure that you’re hiring a contractor who knows what they are doing. That might mean looking for someone with years of experience in paving projects, or comes highly recommended, or it could just mean finding someone whose work you like and trust. Either way, it will help when it comes time to get the best results from your asphalt paving project!

2. Getting High-Quality Paving Materials

The key to building a durable pavement is using high-quality materials. So whether you are opting for recycled asphalt and aggregates or getting new raw materials, you need to ensure that they are of the highest quality by running a bunch of tests on them. Also, make sure the supplier provides an NDT (non-destructive testing) certificate for durable material before making a purchase!

If you aren’t procuring the materials yourself, then check with the reliable contractor you have hired. Experienced paving contractors will have a stockpile of asphalt and aggregates that they already know are up to industry standards, which can be utilized for your particular needs. 

Furthermore, if you are using asphalt millings for your paving project in some states, you are entitled to tax benefits. And if you own a commercial property, then using recycled asphalt can help establish an environmentally friendly and conscious image for your business.

3. Project Management Techniques and Strategies

Having a project plan is essential when undertaking any paving job. You might be able to get the best asphalt for your money if you are prepared and go into the purchase knowing which type of material suits your needs, how much you will need, and where it should be delivered. 

Also, project management can improve the efficiency of each and every project through proper planning, execution, and monitoring, thereby reducing the risk of overruns.

4. Checking the Weather Forecast

Weather elements can impact the results of your paving elements. Therefore, it is imperative to check the weather forecast before scheduling your project. For example, hot mix asphalt cannot be used during the winter months as the asphalt cools down too quickly, leaving little time for installation and causing the asphalt to dry too quickly, resulting in a brittle pavement.

A little consideration can go a long way. Follow the above-stated steps religiously to achieve the best value out of your next asphalt paving project.
