Infrared Asphalt Repair is a unique and modern approach to asphalt patching. Infrared asphalt technology is an effective solution for critical repairs. This unique method blends hot-mix asphalt right in with the original and then compacts the area to create a seamless restoration. If you notice potholes, especially in high traffic areas, pavement heaving, uneven surfaces surrounding catch basins or rough surfaces in drive lanes or parking stalls it is a good idea to consider infrared repair.
To begin the asphalt repair process, first the area to be repaired is swept or blown clean. Next, the surface area will be heated to degrees F for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the depth, season, and existing aggregate typically 1 to 3 inches.
Once the repair area has been heated, it will be raked to remove failed aggregate and a rejuvenator will be applied to replenish lost oils due to oxidation. Additional material will be applied to the area, while raking and grading it to the proper level. Infrared repair is the only treatment that can be implemented all year round. This treatment can be used when it is too cold for hot mix alone, which also boosts its cost-effectiveness since asphalt repair costs often rise in the winter due to the increased amount of machinery needed to keep materials at the correct temperature.
