What to Expect When You Book

You'll begin with an on-site evaluation where grading, drainage paths, and existing ground conditions are reviewed. This step ensures your sub-base preparation matches the load requirements and slope characteristics of your property in Rimrock. Elevation lines are established to create proper flow away from structures and prevent water from collecting on the finished surface.

Longfellow Excavating LLC uses compaction equipment and grading tools to prepare a stable foundation before asphalt installation begins. Sub-base thickness and material selection depend on anticipated traffic and soil conditions. Proper compaction ensures crack-resistant paving suited to Arizona temperature swings.

Once the base is ready, asphalt is installed with attention to edge transitions, surface smoothness, and final grading. You'll see clean access routes, parking pads, or driveways that improve property function and reduce dust. The process includes post-installation inspection to confirm drainage performance and surface integrity.

Key Benefits of This Service

Property owners often ask about timing, preparation requirements, and long-term performance when planning asphalt projects in areas with high heat and low rainfall.

How long does asphalt paving take to complete?
Most driveways and parking pads are completed in one to two days, depending on size and site preparation needs. You'll be able to use the surface within 24 to 48 hours after installation.
What preparation is required before asphalt is laid?
The sub-base must be graded, compacted, and leveled to ensure proper drainage and load support. This step prevents cracking and extends the life of your paved surface.
How does asphalt perform in Rimrock's climate?
When installed over a properly prepared base, asphalt handles temperature swings well and resists cracking from heat expansion. Regular sealing every few years helps maintain surface integrity.
Can asphalt be installed on sloped terrain?
Yes, grading adjustments and compaction techniques allow asphalt to be installed on slopes common around Rimrock. Drainage channels are integrated to manage runoff and prevent erosion.
What maintenance does asphalt paving require?
You'll want to seal cracks as they appear and apply a sealcoat every three to five years. Keeping the surface clean and addressing drainage issues early prevents larger repairs.

Asphalt paving gives you a functional, long-lasting surface that improves access and reduces maintenance compared to gravel or dirt roads. Arrange a consultation to review your site and receive a detailed paving estimate.
