Asphalt Milling
Asphalt milling is the process of removing the top layer of asphalt to create an even depth without disturbing the subbase that lies underneath. Upon removal, new asphalt can be laid down without increasing the road’s height. If the subbase is sound, milling saves you both time and money by repairing only the damaged section of your blacktop.
We offer asphalt milling in the following areas throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey:

HOW ASPHALT MILLING WORKS
For many parking lots and paved surfaces, a full-depth asphalt repair might not be necessary. Parking lots with minimal cracking and trouble spots that otherwise have good drainage and a strong base are prime candidates for asphalt milling.
The mill-and-replace method is similar to the remove-and-replace process. However, not all the existing asphalt has to be removed, which stretches your pavement maintenance dollars. Here’s how it works:
- We will remove 1.5 to 3 inches of the existing asphalt from the top of your surface with our milling machine and haul it away.
- The area is then power cleaned to remove all dirt and debris.
- Our paving crew then overlays new asphalt on top of the surface. The new course is compacted and allowed to cool.
With asphalt milling, your parking lot will look like new with minimal downtime and without any major excavation.
BENEFITS OF ASPHALT MILLING
Here’s why you should turn to our team of experts for asphalt milling:
- We’ll restore your pavement to a uniform, even profile, and remove surface imperfections like bumps and ruts throughout the process.
- Milling offers excellent accuracy when it comes to removing a specified depth. If the damage is confined to the surface layer, our milling machine will remove just that layer.
- Our milling process does not generate smoke or flames. The small amount of dust is easily controlled to avoid pollution and undesirable conditions on your property.
- Once the asphalt is milled, the resulting textured pavement is ready to be used as a driving surface! This allows your business to stay operational while providing the least amount of downtime possible for visitors to your lot or property.
- When it comes to drainage correction, milling can be quite effective. Reach out to our experts for more information!
