Understanding Asphalt Milling: When and Why You Need It
What is Asphalt Milling?
Asphalt milling is the process of removing damaged or deteriorated asphalt pavement using specialized grinding equipment. This controlled removal creates a uniform surface for new asphalt installation while recycling existing materials for environmental sustainability.
Our state-of-the-art milling machines precisely remove specific depths of asphalt, from surface layers to full-depth removal, depending on your project's requirements.
Milling vs. Full Removal: Making the Right Choice
Choose Milling When: Surface damage is limited to the top layers, you need to maintain proper grades and drainage, or when the existing base is structurally sound.
Choose Full Removal When: The pavement has deep structural damage, the base has failed, or when complete reconstruction is more cost-effective than layered repairs.
Cape Cod Climate Benefits
Cape Cod's harsh coastal climate presents unique challenges with salt exposure from winter road treatments and freeze-thaw cycles that cause pavement deterioration. Professional milling removes salt-damaged surface layers and prepares a clean foundation for new asphalt that better resists these environmental factors.
Our milling process eliminates surface cracking where water can penetrate and freeze, preventing further damage and extending pavement life in Cape Cod's challenging climate conditions.
Commercial vs. Residential Milling
Commercial Milling: Large-scale projects including parking lots, roadways, and industrial surfaces. We use heavy-duty equipment for efficient coverage of extensive areas with minimal disruption to business operations.
Residential Milling: Precision work for driveways and smaller areas using compact equipment that minimizes landscape disturbance while delivering professional results for homeowners throughout Cape Cod and Plymouth County.
