Infrared Asphalt Repairs
This type of patching is an alternative to traditional patching methods. The process involves heating up a pavement area to make it workable, then the top lift of existing asphalt is removed. New asphalt is then added to existing asphalt, along with a liquid rejuvenator, during the raking process. The repaired area is then compacted with a vibratory roller.
Some common uses for Infrared Asphalt Repair Patching include: repairing newer pavements without needing to saw-cut, adjusting the height and pitch of pavements, creating a smooth path at transition points, and bonding speed bumps.
