Asphalt paving is the process of installing a smooth, durable driving or walking surface using a mixture of aggregate and asphalt binder that is properly laid, compacted, and finished. At JBG Construction, asphalt paving begins with surface evaluation and preparation, followed by grading and compaction to ensure the pavement can support traffic and withstand Dallas weather conditions.
The purpose of asphalt paving is to create a flexible surface that resists cracking, supports proper drainage, and delivers long-term performance. Along with new asphalt paving, JBG Construction offers asphalt repair, seal coating, crack sealing, parking lot striping, and milling services to maintain surface integrity, improve appearance, and extend the life of paved areas for residential and commercial properties.
From residential driveways to commercial paving projects, JBG Construction delivers asphalt solutions designed to last.
Quality asphalt paving starts long before the first load of material arrives. Every project follows a structured process to ensure the surface performs properly from day one and continues to do so for years.
Site Evaluation and Planning
Each project begins with a detailed site evaluation. We review the existing surface, assess traffic patterns, evaluate drainage, and determine the best paving approach. Careful planning allows the finished asphalt to handle daily use without premature damage.
Demolition and Surface Removal
If old asphalt needs to be replaced, it’s removed completely. Cracked, failing pavement is cleared away to prevent underlying issues from affecting the new surface. Proper removal creates a clean starting point for long-term success.
Base Preparation and Grading
A strong asphalt surface depends on what’s underneath. The base is graded, compacted, and stabilized to support the asphalt above it. Proper grading ensures water flows away from the surface instead of pooling and causing deterioration.
Asphalt Installation
Fresh asphalt is installed using high-quality materials suited for Texas conditions. The surface is carefully spread and compacted to create a smooth, even finish. Attention to compaction is critical for strength and longevity.
Final Compaction and Inspection
Once the asphalt is laid, final compaction ensures proper density and load resistance. The surface is inspected for smoothness, transitions, and overall quality before the project is completed.
Installing new asphalt provides more than just a smooth driving surface. When done correctly, it improves both function and appearance while reducing long-term maintenance costs.
Smooth asphalt eliminates trip hazards, uneven surfaces, and poor transitions. Clear access points and level pavement improve safety for vehicles and pedestrians alike.
Asphalt is designed to flex with temperature changes, making it ideal for Dallas heat. With proper installation and maintenance, asphalt surfaces provide decades of reliable service.
Fresh asphalt instantly improves curb appeal. Clean edges and smooth finishes create a polished look that reflects well on residential and commercial properties.
Compared to other paving options, asphalt delivers excellent performance at a competitive cost. Repairs and maintenance are straightforward, making it a practical long-term investment.
Asphalt paving projects are completed efficiently, and surfaces are typically ready for use quickly. This minimizes downtime for homes and businesses.
Driveways and private access areas require smooth surfaces built for daily use. Residential asphalt paving improves curb appeal while providing dependable performance year after year.
Commercial properties demand durable pavement that can handle traffic, deliveries, and daily wear. Our commercial asphalt paving services focus on strength, layout efficiency, and long-term reliability.
When asphalt has deteriorated beyond repair, replacement becomes the best solution. Old pavement is removed and replaced with a new surface that restores function and appearance.
JBG Construction proudly serves Dallas, TX and surrounding areas including Fort Worth, Arlington, Irving, Garland, Plano, and the greater DFW region. Every project receives the same level of attention regardless of location or size.
Asphalt paving is built to deliver long-term performance when installed correctly and supported by routine maintenance. In most cases, asphalt surfaces can last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, depending on traffic volume, climate exposure, and the quality of the base beneath the pavement.
Ongoing services such as seal coating, crack sealing, and timely repairs play a major role in extending lifespan. At JBG Construction, asphalt paving projects are designed with Dallas conditions in mind, helping surfaces withstand heat, moisture, and daily wear while maintaining strength and appearance over time.
Extensive Cracking and Surface Wear
When cracks spread across the surface, repairs may no longer provide lasting results. Installing new asphalt restores structural strength, improves safety, and gives the pavement a refreshed appearance.
Drainage Problems and Standing Water
Pooled water often signals improper grading or base issues beneath the asphalt. Replacing the surface allows drainage to be corrected, helping prevent water damage and future deterioration.
Uneven or Sunken Areas
Shifting soil and base failure can cause dips that create safety hazards and drainage problems. A new paved surface reestablishes a smooth, level area designed for long-term stability.
Aged and Faded Appearance
Oxidized asphalt loses flexibility and develops a dull, worn look over time. New paving restores a clean, professional finish while improving overall pavement performance.
There are three main types of asphalt commonly used in paving projects, and each serves a specific purpose depending on the surface, traffic load, and performance needs.
Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA)
Hot mix asphalt is the most widely used type of asphalt for paving driveways, roads, and parking lots. It’s produced at high temperatures and applied while hot, allowing it to compact tightly and create a strong, smooth surface. At JBG Construction, hot mix asphalt is often used for new asphalt paving and replacement projects because of its durability, flexibility, and ability to handle heavy traffic in Dallas heat.
Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA)
Warm mix asphalt is similar to hot mix but produced at lower temperatures. This reduces energy use and emissions while still delivering reliable performance. Warm mix asphalt can be beneficial for certain paving conditions and allows for longer hauling distances and improved workability during installation.
Cold Mix Asphalt
Cold mix asphalt is typically used for temporary repairs rather than full paving projects. It doesn’t require heating and is commonly applied for quick fixes such as pothole repairs. While convenient, cold mix isn’t designed for long-term structural performance and is usually a short-term solution.
JBG Construction selects the appropriate asphalt type based on project needs, surface conditions, and long-term performance goals to ensure each paved surface performs reliably over time.
With proper installation and routine maintenance, asphalt surfaces commonly last 20 years or more. Regular services like seal coating and crack sealing help protect the surface and extend its lifespan.
Light traffic is typically allowed within 24 hours, with continued curing over time. Usage guidelines are provided to help prevent early damage during the curing process.
Many surfaces can be repaired depending on the condition. A site evaluation helps determine whether repairs will restore performance or if replacement is the better long-term option.
