Asphalt Milling

Strengthen your Commercial Paving with Asphalt Milling

Asphalt milling is a great way to increase the height of the road without disturbing the sub-base. We remove the top layer of asphalt to an event depth so that a new layer can be laid down. Thus, you can save time (and money) by only repairing the damaged part of the blacktop.

With KNL’s expert Asphalt Milling services, your commercial area doesn’t have to be sealed for long.

Our Process

At KNL, we use high-quality equipment and machinery to remove asphalt’s damaged layer and recycle it. Our Asphalt Milling machine and crew can perform anything from a light surface milling to a full depth removal milling.

Some common scenarios where asphalt milling is needed would be to repair a damaged area or augmenting the current paved surface to fix drainage issues.

Once we remove the asphalt, the surface is swept and cleaned. This helps to bond the old and new asphalt.

Why Choose Asphalt Milling?

Asphalt milling is an effective way to restore worn pavement while reducing project costs and minimizing waste. Instead of removing and replacing the entire pavement structure, milling removes the damaged top layer so a new asphalt surface can be installed over a stable base. This process helps extend the life of your pavement while preparing it for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

One of the biggest advantages of asphalt milling is sustainability. The removed asphalt is recycled and processed into reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), which can be incorporated into future paving projects. Recycling these materials helps reduce landfill waste, conserve natural resources, and lower material costs.

Benefits of Asphalt Milling

• Lower project costs by preserving the existing pavement base when it remains structurally sound.
• Faster project completion with less disruption to your business, employees, or customers.
• Creates a smooth, even surface by removing ruts, potholes, and surface imperfections before repaving.
• Maintains proper drainage by restoring pavement elevations and improving water runoff.
• Environmentally responsible through the recycling and reuse of existing asphalt materials.
• Improves pavement performance by creating a strong foundation for a new asphalt overlay.

Asphalt milling is often the preferred solution for commercial parking lots, private roads, and other paved surfaces that have surface deterioration but still have a solid foundation. Our team evaluates the condition of your pavement to determine whether milling is the right approach or if a more extensive repair is needed.
