Our primary commitment is to innovate the best
green practices in the paving-construction marketplace
in order to positively impact our relationships
with our clients, the public, the community and
our environment. By 2008, we will have aligned
with local and national level, eco-friendly carbon-offsetting
organizations to plant tress, volunteer time,
equipment and services to forests in need. As
green corporate citizens, our paving practices
will improve energy efficiency, by decreasing
emissions, carbon off-setting, and dramatically
reducing fuel consumption.
Our highly innovative Sustainable Asphalt Program
(SA) is our plan and commitment to incorporate
internal and external sustainable solutions in
effort to conserve the environment.
Sustainable asphalt reflects our ambition and
determination to conserve the environment by optimizing
energy performance through asphalt laying solutions
that extend the lifespan of paved asphalt. From
its machinery to its use of large vehicles, the
paving industry has been greatly responsible for
the consumption of natural resources and pollution.
With our improved practices, the use of Sustainable
produces less pollution through the administration
of rigid quality testing and the delivery of precise
amounts of asphalt material.
Unlike other paving companies who will give quotes
over the phone, we pride ourselves in providing
free on-site consultations. By assessing the worksite
in person, we examine the true needs of the client,
price the sustainable raw materials and administer
an appropriate bid. The bid will reflect the paving
industry’s non-competitive, fixed cost of
asphalt, combined with the cost of quality labor.
Our tightly written specifications will outline
the asphalt area needs, insuring that the job
is completed correctly the first time, which will
inevitably sustain the asphalt and the environment.

When it comes to asphalt installations and repair,
there are no universal standards or specifications.
Asphalt management is left largely to the integrity
and knowledge of you contractor. Because there
are many shortcuts that paving companies may take,
it is important to understand the ins and outs
of asphalt and hold your contractor accountable.
In Southern California, asphalt erosion is mainly
caused by Mother Nature. Our variable climate
presents substantial challenges to your property
and asphalt rehabilitation contractor. The sun
and unsuitable landscaping techniques immensely
damage asphalt, which increases the need for avoidable
repairs. Improper landscape irrigation can cause
run-off water to erode your asphalt. Parked and
slow cars also cause excessive stress on your
asphalt. It is important to understand the causes
of asphalt erosion so we can help you prevent
it and maintain your property.
While there is not one universal definition for
sustainability, in essence, it is the culmination
of individuals across all disciplines to pursue
a quality of life where people and the environment
can simultaneously thrive.
