Milled Asphalt Paving in Wisconsin

If you're looking for a durable, budget-friendly, and eco-conscious paving option, milled asphalt is a smart choice. At Armour Asphalt, we specialize in professional milled asphalt paving services across Wisconsin for residential, commercial, and municipal projects. But what exactly is milled asphalt—and why should you consider it for your next surface?

What Is Milled Asphalt?

Milled asphalt (also known as recycled asphalt) is created by grinding up existing asphalt surfaces and reusing the material to form a new, stable layer. This process provides a cost-effective, sustainable alternative to traditional paving—ideal for lower-traffic areas that don’t require heavy-duty surfacing.

Benefits of Milled Asphalt

1. Budget-Friendly

Milled asphalt is more affordable than fresh asphalt while still offering excellent durability and performance.

2. Environmentally Friendly

Made from recycled materials, this option significantly reduces waste and supports sustainable construction practices.

3. Smooth, Safe Surface

Milled asphalt creates a compact, smooth surface that’s safe for vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians.

4. Low Maintenance

Its resilient surface resists cracking and potholes better than untreated gravel or dirt.

5. Quick Installation

Because it reuses existing materials, milled asphalt can be installed faster with reduced curing time.

The Milled Asphalt Installation Process

Step 1: Site Preparation

We begin by clearing the area and grading the surface to ensure proper drainage and stability.

Step 2: Base Layer Installation

A compacted aggregate base is laid to create a strong, supportive foundation.

Step 3: Milled Asphalt Application

Recycled asphalt material is evenly spread across the prepared area.

Step 4: Compaction

We use heavy rollers to compact the surface, ensuring a tight, smooth finish.

Step 5: Final Inspection & Curing

Once compacted, we inspect the surface for consistency and quality before allowing time to cure.
