Asphalt Repair
Asphalt is a popular material for paving due to its durability and low cost. However, over time, asphalt can develop cracks, potholes, and other issues that need to be repaired. Here are the steps for repairing asphalt:
- Evaluate the damage: Assess the extent of the damage to the asphalt surface. Small cracks and surface wear can often be repaired with simple maintenance, while larger cracks or potholes may require more extensive repairs.
- Clean the surface: Use a broom or blower to remove any debris and dirt from the asphalt surface. For larger repairs, a pressure washer may be necessary to remove dirt and grime from the damaged area.
- Repair cracks: Fill small cracks with asphalt crack filler. This is a liquid material that can be poured into the crack and allowed to dry. For larger cracks, use a patching compound that is designed for use on asphalt.
- Fill potholes: For potholes, use an asphalt patching material to fill the hole. This material is usually a combination of asphalt and aggregate that can be troweled into the pothole and smoothed out.
- Compact the repaired area: Use a compactor or heavy roller to compress the repaired area and ensure that the surface is level.
- Sealcoat the surface: After repairs are complete, apply a sealcoat to the surface of the asphalt. This will help to protect the surface from further damage due to weather and other environmental factors.
