Are you planning to install asphalt on your residential driveway?
Are you arranging to install a driveway on your residential home? When paving your driveway, two of the most common choices are asphalt and concrete. While each type of driveway has its strengths and weaknesses, asphalt offers some advantages over concrete. Read on for the reasons to go with asphalt paving your driveway.
The condition of your asphalt says a lot about your property or business. Keep it in great shape!
A functional parking lot is a key part of any home or business. The outside of your property is the first thing that potential customers and passersby will see, and first impressions are everything. What does your parking lot say about your property? Is it clean and free of debris, potholes, and cracks? On a purely functional level, if it isn’t, this will not do. These can cause safety concerns for pedestrians and drivers and damages vehicles. When considering asphalt and paving, these are the key things that you need to know.
Asphalt pavement has become so universal primarily because it is extremely durable, highly cost effective, straightforward to install, and consistently strong. Used for parking lots and roadways the world over, asphalt can last for a long time, provided its given careful maintenance. When it comes to repairing serious asphalt damage one of the most effective methods is infrared repairs.
Infrared asphalt repair uses a combination of asphalt technologies to make fast repairs to severely damaged pavement. Infrared asphalt repair uses hot asphalt and extreme pressure to perfectly mix the new asphalt with the old. If you start spotting potholes or pavement cracking, infrared asphalt repair may be the solution.
First, the area in need of repair will have all its debris, loose aggregate, and water removed. Then infrared machinery will heat it to 325 degrees Fahrenheit for somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes (depending on how deep the area is and the level of asphalt integrity). After heating, the machinery will rake the area to eliminate failing aggregate before injecting specially formulated oils to bolster the strength of the existing asphalt. New hot asphalt will be poured in before a several-ton roller-compactor presses it flat.
Infrared asphalt repair is popular largely due to its effectiveness at deep, subsurface repairs that maximize the reuse of old asphalt and minimize waste without causing asphalt/ aggregate separation or burning. Infrared asphalt repair is also incredibly affordable, using less raw material than traditional repair methods. The speed and thoroughness of the process minimizes both traffic interruptions and water penetration.
