HOW DO I KNOW IF MY BLACKTOP NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED?
If there are cracks wider than a ¼ inch, they should be filled with hot rubber crackfill material. If pavement cracks aren’t filled early, moisture could penetrate and disrupt the base.
Sealcoating combined with repair work every few years prevents the deterioration of asphalt and saves you money over time. If you don’t maintain your parking lot, it causes the fine aggregates in the parking lot to deteriorate and oil to oxidize out of the asphalt. When the fine aggregates deteriorate and the oil evaporates out of the parking lot, you’re left with only the larger aggregates and then eventually gravel. Contact us for a free consultation and parking lot maintenance plan.
WHY IS MY ASPHALT DETERIORATING?
Most asphalt fails due to poor drainage, unstable or poor subgrade, and a lack of preventative maintenance. Asphalt deteriorates when smaller aggregates are broken loose by weather and traffic. When the smaller rock and oil is worn away there is nothing to bind the larger aggregates together and the top surface breaks apart and lets more elements penetrate the asphalt and the base.
