What Is Paving Recycled Asphalt Product (R.A.P.)?
Recycled asphalt is a product of old asphalt that is ground into gravel. This product has much of the original oils still in it. After installation, the heat from the sun releases the oils and binders to help melt the gravel into one uniform piece of pavement.
The paving process starts the same. Proper grading and excavation are required to ensure adequate water runoff.
At Pave-Core Paving Inc., we install the R.A.P. driveway with our automated paver. This process helps ensure that the material stays uniform and consistent. By using the paver and vibrator roller, the finished product is level and smoother than R.A.P. installed with just a tractor or dozer.
A R.A.P. driveway is a gravel drive. It will not be a hot-mix asphalt driveway, but in most cases, it costs half the price, and an R.A.P. driveway is more stable than most other types of gravel. Snow plowing will not displace as much onto your lawn, which means less cleanup in the spring. If, in the future, you would like to have your driveway paved with hot mix, R.A.P. does work as a good base.
What is Hot Mix Asphalt?
Hot mix asphalt is a paving material made of two basic components: aggregates (stone, gravel, and sand) and liquid asphalt (the petroleum-based binder or “glue”).
These are mixed at elevated temperatures to make the paving materials used to build roadways and driveways.

Asphalt is strong and durable, so it lasts many years with minimal maintenance.
Asphalt's black colour helps it draw and retain more of the sun's heat; in the winter, snow will melt faster on an asphalt driveway than on a concrete driveway. This makes commercial property maintenance easier and improves safety in residential settings.
