This process provides a durable, smooth surface that withstands daily vehicle traffic and Tucson's climate variations.
Commercial asphalt services from Pacific Asphalt Company include new paving, resurfacing, and repairs for parking lots, access roads, and industrial surfaces. We ensure durable, high-performance asphalt installations that withstand heavy traffic and Tucson's climate.
Asphalt paving involves the precise installation of a durable, multi-layered asphalt surface, from subgrade preparation to final compaction, creating a smooth and resilient driving or walking area. This process delivers a long-lasting, low-maintenance surface engineered to withstand Tucson's specific climate conditions and traffic demands.
Asphalt patching is the repair of localized damage in paved surfaces, involving the removal of compromised material and replacement with new asphalt. This process restores structural integrity and prevents further deterioration of your pavement.
Asphalt striping defines parking spaces, designates traffic flow, and marks safety zones on your paved surfaces. Properly executed striping enhances property functionality, improves safety, and optimizes space utilization for vehicles and pedestrians.
Asphalt sealcoating involves applying a protective liquid layer to existing asphalt surfaces, guarding against UV damage, water penetration, and chemical spills. This process extends the lifespan of your pavement by several years, maintaining its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.
Choosing Pacific Asphalt Company means partnering with a contractor that understands Green Valley's unique conditions, from its high summer temperatures to its specific soil compositions. Our proximity to Green Valley allows us to respond efficiently to project needs and maintain a consistent presence, which means better project oversight and quicker mobilization. We're not just working in Green Valley; we're familiar with the local infrastructure and the expectations of its residents, from the retirement communities to the growing family neighborhoods.
Our approach to asphalt paving and repair is rooted in technical precision. For new installations, we specify hot-mix asphalt (HMA) blends designed for desert climates, typically using a high-performance aggregate and an AC-20 or AC-30 binder for increased durability against UV radiation and thermal expansion. When performing asphalt patching, we employ full-depth saw-cut repairs, removing compromised material down to the subgrade, which prevents reflective cracking and ensures a stable, integrated repair. This attention to material science and proper technique leads to surfaces that perform reliably.
When you work with us, you can expect a clear, step-by-step project outline and consistent communication regarding progress. We begin with a thorough site assessment, including subgrade evaluation and drainage considerations, because proper preparation is foundational to asphalt longevity. Our crews adhere strictly to compaction specifications, using vibratory rollers to achieve optimal density, which is crucial for preventing premature rutting and raveling. We prioritize a clean and organized work site, minimizing disruption to your property and ensuring safety throughout the project duration.
The best asphalt mix for Green Valley's climate is typically a high-performance hot-mix asphalt (HMA) with a harder asphalt cement binder, such as an AC-20 or AC-30 grade. This type of binder offers increased resistance to softening under extreme summer heat, which helps prevent rutting and deformation. We also ensure the aggregate used is locally sourced and angular, providing better interlock and stability within the mix. This specific composition helps the asphalt withstand the intense UV exposure and thermal cycling common in the Sonoran Desert.
A new asphalt driveway installation in Green Valley typically takes 2-3 days from initial excavation to final compaction, assuming standard subgrade conditions. The first day involves site preparation, grading, and compacting the subgrade and base layers. The second day is dedicated to laying and compacting the hot-mix asphalt. While the asphalt can be walked on within hours, we recommend waiting 24-48 hours before driving vehicles on it to allow for adequate cooling and hardening of the binder, which prevents tire marks and surface distortions.
To prolong the life of asphalt surfaces in Green Valley, regular maintenance including crack sealing and sealcoating is essential. Crack sealing should be performed annually or bi-annually using a hot-applied rubberized sealant to prevent water infiltration into the subgrade, which causes deterioration. Sealcoating every 2-3 years applies a protective layer that shields the asphalt from UV radiation, oxidation, and minor fuel spills, which means the surface stays flexible and resists cracking. Proper drainage around the asphalt also prevents standing water, a major contributor to asphalt breakdown.
