Prime Asphalt: Residential Paving Serving Kansas City Homeowners
With nearly 30 years of experience, we specialize in residential paving services, from new asphalt driveway installations to overlays on existing pavement. Whether you need a sturdy parking area for a rural property in Harrisonville or a smooth, even drive for a historic Kansas City home, we’re the asphalt driveway paving company to call!
Benefits of Asphalt Driveways
Asphalt is popular for residential paving because it’s more affordable than concrete and performs well in colder climates, making it ideal for homes in Kansas City. It also requires less maintenance, and professional repair services are more cost-effective. Instead of having to reseal and deal with cracking concrete, you can get a driveway sealcoating every couple of years and retain that dark, blacktop look.
Asphalt Driveway Paving
Installing residential pavement from the ground up involves several critical steps to ensure a long-lasting and durable surface. Here’s an overview of our driveway installation process:
- Site Preparation: We start by assessing the site, clearing debris, grading the area, and ensuring proper drainage.
- Base Installation: A high-quality aggregate base is laid and compacted to form a solid foundation for the pavement.
- Asphalt Paving: We use advanced machinery to lay and compact multiple layers of asphalt for a robust, smooth surface.
- Finishing: The surface is meticulously smoothed and finished for a flawless appearance.
- Curing: The asphalt news to cure before using the pavement.
We’re also happy to help Missouri home builders and developers create attractive, high-value subdivisions and multi-family residential buildings.
Overlaying Existing Pavement
If your current driveway is in relatively good condition, you can still get a new paved area! We use milling and overlay as an efficient and cost-effective way to renew its surface without a complete rip-out and replacement.
With a resurfacing process, we can mill off the top layer and apply a hot mix asphalt overlay directly on the existing pavement, providing a fresh and durable new surface. Milling allows for correcting underlying issues, such as poor drainage, that may have caused the original driveway to deteriorate. Driveway resurfacing is quicker than removing and replacing the entire paved area, minimizing disruption to your daily routine.
Prime Asphalt ensures every step of the overlay or paving process is executed with precision and expertise, guaranteeing a long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing result, no matter our installation method.
Asphalt Driveway Repair
Regular maintenance and timely repairs are essential to keeping residential pavement in top condition and providing curb appeal and value.
We offer a range of driveway repair services that target specific types of damage or wear:
- Crack Repair: Small cracks can be filled with rubberized asphalt-emulsion crack filler, while larger cracks can be filled with crushed gravel and cold-patch repair compound.
- Pothole Repair: Potholes are a common issue in asphalt driveways. Our team uses high-quality materials and techniques to patch potholes effectively.
- Sealcoating: Sealcoating a driveway provides a protective layer to prevent cracking and environmental damage. This process involves applying a coal tar emulsion over the existing surface.
- Routine Maintenance: Regular cleaning and inspections help identify potential issues early, allowing for timely repairs and maintenance to avoid more extensive damage.
