Asphalt is a very versatile and widely-used material. It has a variety of applications, from driveways to parking lots to roofs. However, like all materials, it is not indestructible and will eventually require repair.
At Chris Paving LLC, we have a process for patching asphalt that has been perfected over many years and countless projects. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through our process so that you can understand what goes into repairing asphalt and why we do things the way we do.
First, we start by cleaning the area to be repaired. This involves using a high-powered power washer to remove any dirt, grime, or debris. Once the area is clean, we allow it to dry completely before proceeding to the next step.
Next, we fill in any cracks or divots with a high-quality asphalt filler. This material is designed to withstand extreme temperatures and heavyweights, so you can rest assured that your repair will hold up over time. Once the filler is dry, we use a tamper to compact it and ensure that it is level with the rest of the surface.
Finally, we apply a layer of sealant to the patched area. This will protect the repair from UV damage and keep it looking fresh for years to come.
