Asphalt Resurfacing

Leading Local Asphalt Resurfacing Provider in Athens, TX and across Henderson County.

When your pavement is structurally sound but looks weathered, asphalt resurfacing is the ultimate cost-effective solution. Also known as overlaying, we mill the top damaged layer, clean the surface, apply a tack coat, and lay a fresh new 1.5 to 2-inch hot-mix asphalt layer directly on top. This restores structural strength and visual beauty without the cost of full excavation. It is ideal for aging parking lots and residential driveways.

Frequently Asked Questions

Specific answers regarding our Asphalt Resurfacing parameters, schedules, and costs in Athens.

Can all asphalt pavements be resurfaced?

No. The existing asphalt base must be structurally stable. If the base has failed, full reconstruction is necessary.

How long does a resurfaced driveway last?

An overlay can last 10 to 15 years with proper sealcoating and maintenance.

Will resurfacing fix underlying cracks?

Reflective cracking can occur if cracks are not filled before overlaying. We patch deep cracks first to prevent this.

What is the cost benefit of resurfacing?

It is significantly cheaper because we skip major excavation, dirt hauling, and new base materials.

What is tack coat?

Tack coat is a sticky asphalt emulsion that acts as glue, bonding the new layer to the old layer.

Can resurfacing fix standing water?

Yes, we can adjust the overlay thickness slightly to improve drainage slopes and redirect water.
