I have been meaning to tell you the parking lot at 1048 serpentine looks FANTASTIC, seriously, the 7’ of 2% is going to really help us out if we need to get an ADA path to the street. The work around the stalls we did previously looks so much better. I know us construction guys don’t hear that very often but well done!

I attended a DRYCO Seminar today and Loved it!! Not only did they feed our tummy’s but they feed our Minds! I walked in not knowing anything about asphalt or concrete and walked out with some much knowledge about both. The owner is so inspirational and super funny to the top! What a down to earth person. This company believes in value! That alone is priceless!

In an industry where everyone needed everything yesterday this is invaluable to us. This is not surpassed by their quality of work, close attention to the scope detail, and their willingness to go above and beyond to ensure the job is done right and on time. Way to go DRYCO!

Kristen Constantino

Melantha Denise Strong I attended a DRYCO Seminar on August 17, 2018, and Loved it. Even the Jokes was comical. Not only did they feed my mind with some good information about Asphalt and concrete, but they also feed us one of my favorite places to have for lunch. I walked in not knowing anything about asphalt or concrete or how to explain to my vendor what I needed them to do for me and walked out with much more knowledge about both. Now I am able to walk my property and explain to a vendor what I need to have done when my maintenance staff is unavailable to assist. The owner was so inspirational and super funny and kept the class interesting, What a down to earth person. This company believes in value! and Family!! That alone is priceless!

Melantha Strong

I have worked with Dryco on several projects in the past 2 years. Great work, timely response - couldn't ask for better customer service!

Frequently Asked Questions

What asphalt mixture is ideal for San Jose's climate?

DRYCO uses an asphalt mixture composed of sand, rock, and liquid asphalt manufactured from crude oil.

How does your free paving estimate work?

If you have an upcoming asphalt, concrete, or fencing project that you’d like handled by an efficient, quality-driven, and responsible crew, simply contact DRYCO using this form to schedule a FREE estimate. One of our experienced estimators will visit your job site and deliver a competitive estimate for your project.

My asphalt is starting to crack. Do I have to replace all of it?

Variations in temperature cause pavement to expand and contract, and rain may cause the soil underneath to swell irregularly. All of this puts stress on the pavement, creating long cracks in a longitudinal (along the roadway) or transverse direction (across the roadway). These are quite common in California but can be kept in check through regular pavement maintenance. However, as the pavement ages, these cracks will appear with increasing density, forming large rectangular or square-shaped cracks. Known as block cracks, these cracks indicate that the pavement has lost its flexibility and may require major reconstruction depending on the severity of the problem.

Is asphalt cheaper than concrete?

Yes and no. The materials themselves cost about the same, but concrete is more expensive to pave with because it has to be laid down thicker (a minimum of 4 inches). Unlike concrete, asphalt is flexible and can be laid as thickly or thinly as you’d like. Long-term, however, asphalt is more expensive than concrete due to ongoing maintenance needs like sealcoating and regular repairs.

How long can asphalt last in San Jose?

On average, asphalt will last about 30 years, but maintenance is everything. Regularly sealcoating asphalt on schedule (first application within 2-3 years; every 3-5 years after that) will allow the pavement to stay flexible for as long as possible by protecting the binder (liquid asphalt) that holds the pavement together. In addition, setting up a proper pavement maintenance plan will significantly extend the life of your asphalt.

Is sealcoating asphalt necessary?

100%, absolutely yes. Sealcoating allows the asphalt to stay flexible by protecting the binder (liquid asphalt) that holds the asphalt together to significantly extend the life of your pavement. DRYCO always recommends two coats of sealer for double the wear.

Is oil or water-based sealcoating better?

Water-based sealers offer better UV protection and are more resistant to oil and gas spills. But unlike oil-based sealers, they also contain coal tar, a known carcinogen, and are no longer used in California.

Can I sealcoat asphalt myself?

Technically, yes, but the preparation and application is more tedious, time consuming, and technical than you may think, especially for a large scale job like a parking lot.

How long should parking lot striping last?

That depends on the weather, the amount of traffic, and the material used for the striping. If the traffic is light, the striping may last up to two years. In terms of materials, thermoplastic striping is thicker and more durable than paint and can be expected to last 3-6 years. The best rule of thumb with striping is to re-do it when it looks like it needs it.

Can you remove old parking lot striping paint?

Yes, you can grind, blast, or chemically dissolve striping paint from asphalt.

Causes of Pavement Deterioration

Raveling

Exposure to the elements cause the liquid asphalt binder in pavement to oxidize and become brittle, and the weight of vehicles causes the now brittle surface to crumble. Water then washes away the crumbled aggregate, diminishing pavement thickness and revealing a rough, rocky appearance.

Cracking

Variations in temperature cause pavement to expand and contract, and rain may cause the soil underneath to swell irregularly. All of this puts stress on the pavement, creating long cracks in a longitudinal (along the roadway) or transverse direction (across the roadway). These are quite common in California and can be kept in check through regular pavement maintenance. As the pavement ages, these cracks will appear with increasing density, forming block cracks. Block cracks indicate that the pavement has lost its flexibility and may require major reconstruction.

Alligatoring

When it rains or when irrigation overflows the landscaping, especially in areas with poor drainage, water enters the cracks and over time slowly carries away the “fines” of the subgrade over time. This causes unstable, unsupported pavement. The weight of vehicles causes the unsupported pavement to crack in a manner resembling alligator skin.

Pothole

Alligatoring will spread through the pavement like cancer, breaking the pavement into even smaller pieces that are cast aside, eventually forming potholes. Just like a leaky roof left unrepaired, the costs increase rapidly at this stage. Immediate response is highly recommended.
