Recycled-Asphalt Driveways

Durable Recycled-Asphalt in Denver Overview

Recycled-asphalt pavement (RAP) repurposes milled or reclaimed asphalt from existing roadways and parking lots into a high-performance driveway surface that rivals new hot-mix asphalt in strength and durability. By grinding and reheating old asphalt, including both aggregate and residual binder, RAP creates a cost-effective material that self-seals minor cracks and resists pothole formation over time.

This process reduces the demand for virgin aggregates and bitumen while delivering a smooth, resilient driveway that can last up to 15 years under normal residential use.

Why Recycled Asphalt is the Smart Choice for Your Driveway

Key Benefits

Recycled-asphalt driveways offer significant advantages. First, material costs run 20–40% lower than new asphalt mixes because RAP requires less new binder and aggregate, savings that are passed directly to the homeowner.

Cost & Return on Investment

Upfront costs for a recycled-asphalt driveway range from $3 to $5 per square foot installed, compared to $5–$13 for new hot-mix asphalt. These lower installation costs translate into a faster breakeven point, especially when factoring reduced maintenance expenses.

Environmental Impact

The environmental advantages of RAP extend beyond waste diversion. Reusing asphalt eliminates the need for new aggregate extraction, which can involve high-energy quarrying and habitat disruption.
