Smoother Asphalt is Better Asphalt<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s Why:<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 The smoother the asphalt, the longer it lasts. Smooth\nasphalt is known to last 10 to 25 percent longer than conventional pavements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smoother pavements maximize surface area contact with tires. This promotes a higher level of traction, and therefore, safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smoother pavements save drivers on fuel costs. Vehicles simply get better gas mileage on smoother roads; up to 10% in savings, on average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smoother pavements are safer for a vehicle. Rough roads can affect tires, brakes, suspension, shocks, and several other mechanical components necessary for safe and efficient operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Since smoother asphalt roads are kinder on vehicles, drivers save more money on fuel and repair costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smoother asphalt is much more attractive. They look nicer, which can increase curb appeal, and ultimately, property value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smooth asphalt requires less maintenance. After 10 or 15 years, it will require a routine milling and overlay. Other than that, simple daily and weekly upkeep is all it needs to last and last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smoother asphalt is more enjoyable and safer for bicyclists, motorcycle riders, and pedestrians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 Smooth asphalt is quieter and even skid-resistant. Noise reduction is a big bonus for many commercial properties, including schools, hotels, apartment complexes, and more. Recent research showed that asphalt pavement can reduce highway noise by 3 to 5 dB(A) or more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26d6 A smooth asphalt surface is installed without pavement joints, which makes the ride smoother and more comfortable, but also decreases crack and pothole development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
