Did you know that asphalt is 100-percent recyclable?
When we remove old asphalt pavement, we bring it back to our Eastern Virginia asphalt plant and process it to make recycled asphalt product (RAP), a rock-like substance that’s a versatile construction material.
Basic Construction Company offers two sizes of recycled asphalt product: big RAP (1 ½ inch stone) and fine RAP (1/2 inch stone). Our recycled asphalt is properly crushed and screened, and it comes out as high-quality, cost-effective aggregate coated with asphalt cement.
For starters, you can save a ton of money by using recycled asphalt product. For example, let’s look at gravel driveways. Most gravel driveways use #21 crusher run stone on them, however, recycled asphalt product costs less and works better than gravel driveways. A RAP gravel driveway is laid the same way as regular gravel but kicks up almost no dust, packs tighter under traffic, handles the elements better, and hardens over time, which provides you a surface which requires much less maintenance than gravel and that you can rely on for years to come.
