Some asphalt companies don’t use the skill and knowledge necessary to keep asphalt looking its best all year long. Small cracks in the asphalt can allow water to cause deterioration. Asphalt need to be sealed on a regular basis, and sometimes it needs to be treated more often when it’s heavily traveled. An experienced Asphalt Paving Service will tailor their service to a customer’s needs. They understand that a business can’t have their parking lot closed any longer than necessary, and know that every company or homeowner has a budget which they need to maintain for their asphalt work.
One of the main reasons asphalt fails is due to poor installation. Failure to grade the land so the water drains from the asphalt and a poor base can result in the asphalt being ruined in a short amount of time. Due to regular wear and tear on a parking lot, road, driveway or walkway, cracks can develop. These cracks should be sealed and the asphalt must be seal coated. Oxidation from the sun, rain, and occasional freeze and thaw cycles can damage asphalt. These things will dry out the binders and cause them to flake or chip away. Sealcoating slows this process down and is much less expensive that replacing the asphalt.
Oil spots on asphalt can slowly eat away at the binding material and should be removed regularly. A special degreaser must be used with a stiff brush or broom. It takes some additional work to remove oil but is well worth the time. If gasoline gets on the asphalt surface, it will result in the same type of damage as an oil spill. Sealing asphalt not only binds the materials today but can offer a fresh appearance. An Asphalt Paving Service offers all of these services and much more.
An asphalt service can mill the old surface and perform overlay and overlay repair. They can fill potholes and provide striping and signage when the job’s complete. Property managers, business owners, and residential owners can rest easy knowing that their investment will last for years to come. For more information, please visit website.
