Calvac Paving, a Bay Area paving and concrete company, is pleased to announce that they are celebrating over four decades in business. Since the day they first opened for business in 1974, Calvac Paving has strived to offer a wide variety of services, including concrete hardscapes, asphalt repair, interlocking pavers, crack filling, seal coating, and many others.

Over the past 45-plus years, Calvac Paving has grown to become one of the largest Bay Area paving and asphalt contractors. From business owners who need new concrete sidewalks and ADA ramps to schools that have old and cracked asphalt parking lots that are in desperate need of repair, the friendly and experienced team at Calvac Paving is ready and able to help.

In addition to offering top-notch service, Calvac Paving’s website is exceptionally user-friendly, providing visitors with in-depth explanations of the various services they offer. The educational articles not only describe what each service entails, but when it is typically needed. This can help business owners, commercial property managers, homeowners association managers and many other clients to educate themselves and their clients about what work is needed at their properties.

For example, the article about asphalt repair explains that interconnecting cracks called “alligatoring” are typically found in high traffic areas or near dumpster enclosures.

“In the areas of the pavement surface where failure is showing (areas of ‘alligatoring’) we may propose removal of the failed asphalt and replacement with a thicker cross-section of newly placed and compacted asphalt,” the article noted, adding that Calvac Paving will mill, saw cut or jackhammer the perimeter of the failed areas.

“It is recommended that the new ‘patch’ be placed at a minimum thickness of 1-1/2 times the original asphalt depth to bridge any inherent weakness in the base material in that area.”

Anybody who would like to learn more about Calvac Paving is welcome to visit the user-friendly website or Facebook Page at any time; there, they can read more about the high-quality services they offer.

Los Altos New Private Road Project

Los Altos New Private Road Project

Calvac Paving was proud to be able to serve the city of Los Altos, California by replacing a  common private road within the community. The roadway needed repair for durability, safety, and aesthetic reasons, giving Calvac Paving the opportunity to once again demonstrate the quality and attention to detail of our work.

This project required some delicate handling because, as a private road in a residential area, Calvac Paving had to be mindful of residents’ access needs as well as the possibility of fires or other emergencies. It also necessitated using a special process that allowed for minimum road closure time and maximum performance. We created a short video to show the highlights of the paving process, from top to bottom.

The process Calvac Paving decided to use was a “petromat” overlay on top of the existing roadway. To do this, the failed areas were prepatched using full depth hot mix asphalt. Once this was done, the existing utility boxes in the roadway were raised up, so as to secure them against further failures in the subgrade or roadway itself. An asphalt binder and paving fabric were installed next, allowing the existing road surface to bond properly to the hot mix upon placement. A 2” lift of hot-mix was placed using a self-propelled paver, and then the lift was compacted to produce a smooth, level road surface.

The finished product is much nicer-looking, offers more flexibility and durability, and didn’t require as much disruption of local traffic patterns as more traditional repair and rehabilitation projects. Calvac Paving specializes in these kinds of jobs, where tight traffic constraints and the need for access make conventional processes difficult or impossible. In this particular case, we left the property owners with a smoother, more aesthetically pleasing, better-driving roadway.

Calvac Paving has been serving the Bay Area since 1974, providing the highest-quality paving, concrete and earthwork solutions for residential, commercial, transportation and public applications. From annual budgeted concrete repairs, asphalt paving and seal coat to a complete new roadway build and striping services, Calvac Paving has the equipment, knowledge and experience to deliver excellent quality at competitive prices. We approach every job with a can-do attitude and consider carefully how to proceed to obtain the best balance of cost-effectiveness, performance, and safety.

Because our President, Jim Adam, carries ADA Expert certification, Calvac Paving is also an ADA-certified company. This means we are continuously keeping abreast of new developments and adaptations to ADA regulatory requirements and standards. Carrying this prestigious and important certification allows us to ensure every project we undertake is in full compliance with ADA Standards as well as the California Building Code, which in some cases are even more stringent.

In addition to our certifications and awards, Calvac Paving offers a three-year warranty to qualifying customers, three times the industry standard. We stand behind every job we do with strict quality and performance standards because we want our clients to have peace of mind that the work they get from Calvac Paving will be the best anyone, anywhere can deliver. We hold our work to the highest possible standards for materials, workmanship and durability, Calvac Paving can take pride in giving our clients/Stakeholders a finished product they can trust.

Calvac Paving is proud to have served the Bay Area as long as we have, and we will continue to do so in 2016 and beyond. Whether we’re fixing a private roadway in Los Altos or working on a major airport runway renovation, striping a parking lot or building an access ramp to the exacting tolerances of ADAS and CBC requirements, we are passionate about our work and proud of the final result.

As a company spokesperson noted, the event—which is hosted by the California Apartment Association—will be held at the Santa Clara Convention Center. The full-day conference typically draws a crowd of 1,500-plus professionals from a variety of industries.

The team from Calvac Paving will be in Booth 318 during the event. As the spokesperson noted, attendees are welcome to come by the booth and enter to win a raffle. “People who take pictures of Calvac Paving’s booth and use the hashtag #CAAConnectExpo will automatically be entered to win a prize from the asphalt and concrete company,” the spokesperson said, adding that representatives from the company are looking forward to meeting other attendees and exhibitors that are also in the Property Management and Maintenance industry. One reason the event is so popular with attendees, the spokesperson said, is that it’s a one-stop shop for information relating to the rental housing industry.

For example, this event features 160-plus exhibitor booths and educational seminars that feature nationally recognized speakers. Everyone who attends—from owners and corporate executives to property managers, leasing professionals, California Certified Residential Managers and more—will leave the event feeling like they have received the answers and information they need about their most urgent management challenges, as well as determining which vendors are the best for their businesses.

“Calvac Paving has served the Bay Area for over four decades, so we are confident that we can help answer a variety of questions that attendees may have about our industry while also enjoying meeting new clients,” the spokesperson said.
