How to Install Asphalt the Right Way (And Why It Matters in Reno) 🛠️🛣️
Installing asphalt isn’t just about dumping some blacktop and calling it a day. Done right, it lasts for decades. Done wrong? You’re back to repairs in no time.
Here’s how the pros at Great West Asphalt Paving in Reno do it:
1️⃣ Demolish & Clear – Old concrete or asphalt? Gone. We start fresh.
2️⃣ Grade for Drainage – Proper slope = less water damage later.
3️⃣ Compact the Sub-Base – A strong foundation keeps your surface from cracking.
4️⃣ Proof Roll – If the base moves under pressure, we fix it—no shortcuts.
5️⃣ Binder Layer – Adds strength and durability under the surface.
6️⃣ Apply Surface Asphalt – Smooth, dark, beautiful pavement.
7️⃣ Create Smooth Transitions – Where new meets old, it should be seamless.
🔧 Bonus Step: Sealcoating (But Not Right Away!)
Wait at least 3 months before sealcoating to allow proper curing—then seal to protect your investment.
Thinking about DIY? Asphalt installation is serious work—grading, compacting, drainage, layering… it all matters. One mistake can shorten your driveway’s life by years.
