When contractors remove the first layer of asphalt, they can investigate deeper issues. Some damages that require asphalt milling include crumbling or cracking asphalt. When you have cracks, water erosion is more likely. Other damages may include shoving, rutting, gradient defects, and uneven pavement. When you ignore defects with your commercial parking lot, guests are more likely to suffer injuries or vehicle damages.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is asphalt milling?
Asphalt milling removes the top layer of damaged pavement while leaving the base intact. This process corrects surface issues and prepares the area for a fresh asphalt overlay. Milling is cost-effective and environmentally friendly. It’s ideal for surfaces with wear but a solid foundation.
When is milling better than full replacement?
Milling is recommended when surface damage exists but the underlying base is still stable. It saves time and money compared to full removal. A site evaluation helps determine the best approach. Full replacement is only needed when structural failure is present.
How long does asphalt milling take?
Most milling projects are completed within one to two days. Larger areas may take longer depending on depth and size. Milling allows for quick preparation and repaving. Downtime is kept to a minimum.
Does milling improve drainage?
Yes, milling allows for regrading and slope correction. This improves water runoff and reduces pooling. Proper drainage helps prevent future asphalt damage. It’s an important step in long-term pavement health.
Can pavement markings be added after milling?
Yes, pavement markings can be applied after resurfacing is complete. This includes parking spaces, arrows, and safety markings. Markings improve usability and compliance. They are often included as part of the final phase.
