For businesses, farms, and homeowners, asphalt paving and its accompanying solutions are essential. A nicely paved farm lane, a smooth and well-designated parking lot, and a flawless driveway are all examples of ways Tates Creek Paving in Lexington, Kentucky, supports our customers, but there is so much more we do, and we can’t wait to share that with you.
Our Services in Lexington, Kentucky
Asphalt Paving
Asphalt paving is a service we offer for parking lots, driveways, and farm lanes. Our process includes:
- Removing the old surface
- Preparing the surface for new asphalt
- Grading to ensure an excellent finish on sloped areas
- Applying the asphalt to the project area
Each project is different, but we have experience throughout the Lexington, Kentucky, area, which means we’re familiar with working on slopes, hills, and flat ground. This ensures you get a team that gets the job done and does it right the first time.
Asphalt Repair
Asphalt repair, or asphalt patching, is a way to fix a section of asphalt rather than applying a completely new surface over a wider area. The process we use for asphalt repair includes:
- Removing debris and damaged asphalt from the project area
- Creating clean edges so the asphalt can adhere to the material around the project area
- Compacting the asphalt patch to ensure it performs at its best
- Allowing the asphalt to cure
Asphalt can be damaged by water intrusion, frequent use by heavy vehicles, and seasonal changes throughout the year. However, with proper maintenance, asphalt lasts about 15 to 25 years. If you’re getting close to that time, check your surfaces to ensure they’re intact.
Asphalt Sealcoating
Asphalt sealcoating is a protective measure to help keep your asphalt effective as long as possible. The sealcoat is an oil-based product that binds the top of the surface and prevents water intrusion, oils, and other materials from getting into your asphalt and breaking it down. Our process for sealcoating is:
- Cleaning and preparation
- Small repairs
- Application
- Cleanup
Once you apply sealcoating, it’s generally a good idea to renew it every three to five years to ensure it continues effectively protecting your asphalt surface.
Asphalt Lot Striping
If you own a parking lot or have ever parked a car in one, you know the importance of having marked spaces, lanes, crosswalks, and other indicators throughout the space. At Tates Creek Paving, our team will re-apply durable striping to your parking lot and ensure everything is marked. Whether it’s part of a larger asphalt paving project for a parking lot or you need to touch up your current striping, we’re happy to help.
Frequently Asked Questions from Our Lexington Customers
Q: Does Tates Creek Paving Work With Other Materials?
A. No. Our team only works with asphalt, asphalt millings, and the materials needed for striping parking lots.
Q: What Are The Benefits of Asphalt?
A. Asphalt has many benefits. For people looking to pave an area, asphalt is flexible and less likely to require constant repairs compared to other pavement materials. It takes less energy and resources to produce asphalt, and it’s recyclable, making it more environmentally friendly than other pavement materials.
Q: Can You Apply a Sealcoat to the New Asphalt Immediately?
A. No. Typically, you want to wait at least three months (90 days) before applying a sealcoat to the asphalt so it has time to cure, harden, and become more durable. Waiting nine months to one year will give it time to fully cure and become as durable as possible before the sealcoat.
Q: Do You Have Customer Testimonials or Examples of Past Projects?
A. Yes! We have reviews and examples of past projects you can look through to ensure we’re the best option for your business, home, or farm needs.
