Restore Your Roadways with Asphalt Milling
Asphalt milling is a highly effective pavement maintenance and repair method that removes the top layer of damaged asphalt while preserving the underlying base. This process creates a smooth, even surface, making it the ideal solution for restoring roads, parking lots, and driveways without the cost of full reconstruction. By extending the life of your pavement and reducing future repair expenses, milling offers both immediate and long-term value.
In Central Illinois, where weather extremes and heavy traffic wear down pavement quickly, asphalt milling addresses cracks, ruts, and uneven surfaces before they become larger, costlier problems. It is also an eco-friendly process, as the milled asphalt can be recycled and reused in future paving projects.
At Hoerr’s Blacktop & Sealcoating, asphalt milling is a key part of our comprehensive pavement maintenance and repair services, alongside asphalt sealcoating, asphalt repair, and parking lot striping. This makes asphalt milling one of the smartest investments you can make to protect your property, enhance safety, and ensure lasting pavement performance.
Our Proven Asphalt Milling Process
At Hoerr’s Blacktop & Sealcoating, we’ve honed a reliable approach that combines efficiency, precision, and expertise. Each project is tailored to your pavement’s unique condition and long-term needs.
- Site Evaluation and Building the Right Plan – We begin with a thorough inspection of your pavement’s current condition. This step allows us to determine the milling depth, identify problem areas, and recommend the best repair strategy.
- Precision Milling and Removing the Worn Surface – Our advanced milling equipment shaves away the damaged asphalt with incredible accuracy, ensuring a uniform surface. By controlling the depth precisely, we preserve the base while preparing for new asphalt.
- Surface Preparation for Setting the Foundation – After milling, the surface is cleaned and prepared so that the new asphalt layer bonds securely. Proper preparation prevents premature wear and guarantees a smooth, durable result.
- Pavement Resurfacing and Applying Fresh Asphalt – Once the surface is ready, we apply new asphalt. The overlay not only restores the pavement’s appearance but also reinforces its structure for years of use.
- Adding the Finishing Touches – From sealcoating to parking lot striping, we finish every job with details that maximize safety, functionality, and curb appeal.
Our expert team’s attention to detail and state-of-the-art equipment allow us to complete milling projects efficiently with minimal disruption to your business or property.
