Crack Filling
Moisture intrusion into and through cracks in pavement is a leading case of base erosion and pavement failure, including alligatoring (severe cracking) and potholes. Crack filling with hot rubberized or cold-applied crack filler prevents moisture intrusion into pavement cracks by providing a water-proof barrier.
Pothole Repair – Avoiding Costly Liabilities
Potholes represent an annoyance to vehicle traffic and a serious tripping hazard to pedestrians. To avoid potential liability, potholes should be filled immediately upon discovery with either cold patch or hot mix material. Filling potholes is a relatively easy and inexpensive process.
Asphalt Pavement Patching
Severely damaged pavement requires patching using either Infrared Patching techniques or Full-Depth asphalt repair.
- Infrared Patching involves heating up and re-melting the damaged asphalt, raking and then compacting the asphalt to produce a “like new” asphalt patch area.
- Full-Depth Asphalt Repair involves cutting out and removing the damaged asphalt, repairing the base and replacing with fresh hot mix asphalt. Full-depth asphalt repair typically provides better long term results.
Cleaning and Priming Oil Stains
Oil spots must be cleaned and primed prior to seal coating. Cleaning and priming will prevent oil stains from bleeding up through freshly applied pavement sealer.
Line Striping/Traffic Marking
Line striping and traffic markings provide organized traffic flow and clearly defined parking areas. Acrylic water- based traffic paints are recommended for parking lots.
