ASPHALT RESURFACING IN LAVAL
ASPHALT RESURFACING
Over time, your asphalt driveway requires resurfacing to look new again due to wear and weather. It ages and deteriorates due to multiple factors: hot summer and cold winter weather, exposure to oils and gasoline, and general wear and tear. Resurfacing is more cost-effective than full replacement because it’s simpler and takes less time. Asphalt resurfacing is the installation of a new asphalt layer on the old coating of your asphalt driveway, giving it a new life while increasing its beauty and durability. Instead of removing your existing asphalt, we add a new layer of asphalt over the old coating. This new layer is about 2 inches thick after compaction, and we apply a layer of glue/bitumen beforehand for its adhesion to the existing paving.
Is resurfacing a good investment?
Yes. Resurfacing adds a new layer of asphalt that strengthens your driveway and extends its lifespan. It is installed over a solid, well-compacted base, ensuring long-lasting durability and performance.
When to opt for asphalt resurfacing?
Wondering if you need asphalt resurfacing or a full asphalt replacement? Depending on the condition of your residential or commercial asphalt pavement, one of these options could be more advantageous than the other for you. It is not possible to resurface all surfaces. During the initial visit, our asphalt expert will check that certain conditions are met :
The foundation must be of good quality.
Proper drainage must be in place over the years.
The terrain must accommodate an additional asphalt layer.
If any of these conditions are not met, a re-laying of asphalt in accordance with the standards will have to be considered.

Asphalt Resurfacing Procedure
1 - Cleaning your existing asphalt
We will start by uprooting and burning the weeds to the root. Afterward, we will clean with brooms and a leaf blower to ensure your old asphalt residue is removed.
2 - Application of liquid bitumen
We will apply a layer of bitumen to act as glue, maximizing adhesion between the new asphalt layer and your old asphalt.
3 - Installation of the asphalt layer
We will install and level a new asphalt layer over your old one.
4 - Compaction of the asphalt
We will compact with a compaction plate, followed by a road roller, to achieve maximum compaction of your new asphalt entrance.
