What is Infrared Asphalt Repair

Infrared asphalt repair is an innovative method for fixing cracks and potholes in paved surfaces. The process involves heating the existing asphalt with infrared rays to make it soft and pliable. This malleable state allows the addition of new asphalt to blend seamlessly with the old surface, creating a strong, permanent bond with recycled materials.

Whether you’re dealing with high-traffic areas that need enhanced durability or aesthetic repairs where a smooth finish is essential, infrared pavement repair offers a versatile and cost-effective alternative to traditional methods.

When You May Need Infrared Asphalt Repairs

Certain scenarios lend themselves to infrared asphalt repair. Here are some instances where you may need infrared asphalt repair instead of a cold patch or traditional patching: 

Potholes

Potholes pose a significant risk to cyclists and motorists, especially in high-traffic areas. Infrared pothole repair creates safer, smoother surfaces and prevents future complications.

Binding Speed Bumps to Existing Surfaces

If a property is missing crucial speed bumps, infrared asphalt repair can bind them to existing surfaces.

Elevation Around Catch Basins

In areas with frequent freeze-thaw cycles, the surfaces around catch basins can often become uneven. Infrared asphalt repair can raise these surfaces, creating even elevation.

Leveling Asphalt Around Dips & Divots

Over time, dips and divots can develop in paved surfaces. Infrared pavement repair levels the asphalt around these unsightly hazards for an even surface.

Pavement Heaving

Pavement heaving refers to uneven road surfaces, typically caused by moisture in the ground resulting from winter’s freeze-thaw cycle. One of the most effective solutions for addressing this issue is infrared asphalt repair, which not only levels the surface but also helps prevent further problems from developing.
