Reactivated Driveways – An Affordable & Eco-Friendly Alternative
In addition to traditional masonry, Melvin Hershberger offers an innovative driveway solution known as Reactivated Driveways—a cost-effective, durable, and environmentally friendly alternative to standard asphalt paving.
✔ What is a Reactivated Driveway?
A reactivated driveway uses four inches of recycled asphalt, treated with a biodegradable, plant-based bonding agent called Reactiv8. This process bonds the material together, creating a solid, long-lasting surface that looks and functions like a traditional asphalt driveway—but at a fraction of the cost.
✔ How the Process Works
🔹 Step 1: Recycled asphalt is delivered and spread evenly.
🔹 Step 2: Reactiv8 solution is applied, saturating the asphalt.
🔹 Step 3: The surface is rolled and compacted to create a firm, weather-resistant driveway.
✔ Benefits of Reactivated Driveways
✅ Cost-effective – A budget-friendly alternative to new asphalt.
✅ Eco-friendly – Uses recycled materials and a biodegradable bonding agent.
✅ Durable – Resists washouts, cracks, and erosion over time.
✅ Low maintenance – Requires minimal upkeep compared to gravel or traditional asphalt.
✅ Aesthetic appeal – Blends naturally into the surrounding landscape.
One satisfied customer shared: “Before, our gravel driveway would wash out every time it rained. Since getting a reactivated driveway, it has stayed intact and requires little maintenance!”
