1. What are the steps National Paving Company is taking to turn green and promote environmental health?

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.

2. How is Sustainable Asphalt Program (SAP) different from Sustainable Asphalt?

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.

3. How can I get a bid for a potential residential or commercial property project?

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.

4. What should I look for in a paving company?

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.

5. What are the causes of asphalt erosion?

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.

6. What is sustainability and sustainable development?

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.
