What is asphalt milling, and when is it a better option than full pavement replacement?

Asphalt milling removes a portion of the existing pavement while preserving the underlying structure. It is often a more cost-effective alternative to full replacement when the base remains in good condition.

What types of asphalt milling services does Dixon provide?

Dixon provides surface milling, full-depth milling, and full-depth reclamation for commercial, municipal, and transportation projects. Our services cover everything from asphalt parking lot milling to major roadway rehabilitation and asphalt pavement milling projects.

How do I choose the right asphalt milling contractor?

Look for a qualified asphalt milling contractor with experienced operators, specialized equipment, and a proven track record. Relevant project experience and the ability to meet production schedules are also important factors.

Our Asphalt Milling Services

Surface Milling

Surface milling removes the upper layer of asphalt to eliminate wear, improve ride quality, and prepare the pavement for resurfacing. This cost-effective solution is ideal for parking lots, roadways, and commercial properties where the underlying structure remains in good condition.

Full-Depth Milling

Full-depth milling removes asphalt to a specified depth when surface repairs alone are not enough. Commonly used on heavily deteriorated pavements, this service prepares the area for reconstruction or new pavement installation while maintaining precise grades and elevations.

Full-Depth Reclamation

Full-depth reclamation addresses pavement failures that extend beyond the asphalt surface by rebuilding the roadway structure from the ground up. This solution is often used on roads, industrial sites, and large commercial properties where both the asphalt and underlying base require rehabilitation.

Our Asphalt Milling Process

Site Evaluation & Planning

Our team evaluates existing pavement conditions, traffic loads, drainage patterns, and project requirements to determine the appropriate milling depth and overall scope of work. This ensures the surface is prepared correctly for repair, resurfacing, or overlay.

Asphalt Milling & Removal

Using specialized milling equipment, we precisely remove the existing asphalt surface to the required depth. The reclaimed asphalt material is collected and hauled away or recycled depending on project specifications.

Surface Cleaning & Base Preparation

After milling, the exposed surface is thoroughly cleaned to remove loose debris and fine material. We then assess and refine the underlying base to ensure proper grade, stability, and drainage before new paving or resurfacing.

Final Grading & Inspection

The milled surface is fine-graded and checked for uniformity, slope, and readiness for the next phase of construction. A final inspection confirms the site is properly prepared for asphalt overlay or follow-up paving work.
