Earthworks

Burchnell’s Paving has the right plant, equipment, and knowledge to handle any size project. We can advise exactly on the required base course before the placement of asphalt.

Our professional team can guide you through earthmoving, excavation & underground stormwater drainage.

The construction and choice of base course thickness and material will vary depending on the existing ground surface, the intended use of the site, the location of the project and the grades needed for the project.

Using our vast experience, Burchnell’s Paving will ensure that all necessary pre-works are in place before

Working with the client is paramount to clearly establishing the planned usage of the site and determining the final design level requirements. We will clear the site of any unwanted vegetation (tree pruning and removal). Remove any unwanted surface material.

We will then determine the sub-grade material and allow for the supply, install and compaction of the base course material in readiness for the asphalt application. This is all part of our standard service.

Drainage

Asphalt pavements have minimal water absorption and can quickly create large volumes of water that need to be properly drained.

At the initial site inspection phase, Burchnell's Paving will focus on the water flow and drainage requirements. We can undertake all types of drainage works including:

• Estimation of drain storage capacity requirements.
• Identification of specific ground type and recommendation of the most suitable method of drainage for your project.
• Soakwell specification and installations.
• Interconnection of soakwells to balance drainage capacity.
• Spoon drain design and installation.
• Shaping of base course materials to divert water flow beyond the edges of your paved surfaces.

A properly drained asphalt pavement will have increased longevity.

Kerbing

Burchnell’s Paving can take care of all your kerbing needs. Whether your needs are large or small Burchnell’s Paving has extensive experience in residential and large-scale commercial kerbing. Our experienced team will work with you to meet the needs of your operations, to suit your timeframe and budget.

Kerbing is an integral element to many paving projects, as well as being aesthetically pleasing. It is useful in the control of vehicle movement, acting as a retainer for gardens and landscaping, and controlling the flow of water run off. Quality kerbing will also protect the edges of your paved surface from traffic damage and erosion.

Primer Sealing

Burchnell’s Paving can provide a one coat seal for bitumen and granite aggregate underneath the asphalt wearing course as recommended for specific applications on steep slopes where asphalt is to be placed.

Two Coat Sealing

Alternatively,  a two coat seal can be supplied as an alternative for a machine laid asphalt road as you will see on all country roads.

Burchnell's Paving is located in Maddington Western Australia.
