Frequently Asked Questions About Asphalt Repair and Maintenance
Why/How do you fill cracks in asphalt?
It's crucial to fill cracks in your pavement because it will prevent more costly repairs in the future. Cracks that are left unfilled can quickly lead to potholes and eventual pavement failure. Our expertly trained team at Superior Seal Coating uses only the best materials when it comes to repairing cracks, such as acrylic filler and hot crack filler. If you are in Chester County, PA and your driveway is in need of crack repairs, don't hesitate to give us a call!
How long does an asphalt driveway last?
The average lifetime of an unmaintained asphalt driveway is about 20 years. However, with a proper asphalt maintenance program, you could double the lifetime of your driveway. Seal coating and crack repair cost pennies on the dollar compared to paving. A small investment now can add years to the lifetime of your driveway.
Does sealing asphalt extend its life?
Yes, regular maintenance and seal coating will significantly extend the lifetime of your driveway. Seal coating protects the asphalt binder by protecting against elements that could harm the surface, such as moisture, UV rays, and chemicals. Seal coating will protect and beautify your asphalt at the same time.
Can all types of asphalt damage be repaired?
Not all types of damage to asphalt surfaces can be repaired. Smaller cracks are easy to repair but potholes and alligator cracks require more expensive repairs. In that case, we recommend removing the damaged areas of concrete and replacing them with a patch. There are lots of options when it comes to asphalt repairs, be sure to rely on experienced personnel like the Superior Seal Coating team. Inexperienced repair teams or low-quality work will not last. Fix it right the first time with Superior Seal Coating.
Are asphalt repairs expensive?
The cost of asphalt repairs can vary depending on the extent of the damage and the necessary repairs. Larger surface areas and cracks demand more time, tools, and material, so you should expect to pay more. But remember, it is always best to consult with a professional for a more accurate estimate. Contact us today, and we'll break down the cost of repairs for your residential driveway or commercial parking lots.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace an asphalt surface?
In general, repairing asphalt surfaces is a more cost-effective solution than replacing them. However, it ultimately depends on the extent of the damage and the needs of the client. Remember, the goal should be to get the best value for your money. Trust our team to evaluate the condition of your asphalt and provide an effective solution.
Can I drive on newly sealed or repaired asphalt surfaces?
The liquid asphalt in blacktop needs time to fully harden and cure, which can take 6-12 months on average. During that time, repairs can remain soft and malleable. While you may walk on your new repairs right away, we recommend holding off on driving over them for at least 2 days. In addition, refrain from parking on the new asphalt for 5 days, and possibly even longer in hotter temperatures. Do not turn your wheel/tires while your vehicle is not moving. It will cause power steering tire marks (especially in confined back-up areas) that can “tear” the surface of the blacktop.
How often should I have my asphalt surface inspected for maintenance and repair needs?
At Superior Seal Coating, we recommend having your asphalt surface inspected for maintenance and repair needs every 2-3 years. However, the frequency of inspections may vary depending on the level of usage and environmental factors. For example, if your asphalt surface experiences heavy traffic or is exposed to extreme weather conditions, annual inspections may be necessary.
What are some preventative maintenance tips for asphalt surfaces?
Want to protect your surface from damage? Pavement maintenance is key, but so is preventing problems BEFORE they occur. This means avoiding some critical issues that we see most companies and homeowners in the industry fail to adhere to. Things like standing water can erode the asphalt surface, weaken it, and lead to significant damage. Make sure to prevent standing water by checking drainage regularly, and removing debris from the gutters. Regular cleaning of asphalt surfaces is important, as debris, leaves, and other materials can accumulate and hold moisture on the surface. This moisture — similar to standing water — can weaken the surface and cause cracks and potholes. A power washer is an excellent tool to blast away dirt and debris, so consider renting one for a deep cleaning periodically. Additionally, you want to avoid heavy machinery that can cause damage to asphalt surfaces. We know this may be difficult for some of our clients. So, if you must use heavy machinery, be sure to place plywood or rubber mats on the surface to protect it from damage. Sealcoating is extremely important to protect asphalt surfaces from damage caused by UV rays and water. Sealers help to keep water from seeping through the surface and weakening it.
Our Asphalt Repair Services:
-
Asphalt Patching
Asphalt that shows signs of more significant damage requires our team to take another approach. If your asphalt has potholes or anything more than run-of-the-mill cracks, then asphalt patching is your best bet as a long-term repair solution. Superior Seal Coating’s asphalt driveway patching services can remove and replace bad asphalt and keep your visitors safe. The perimeter of the old asphalt will be cut, and the damaged asphalt will be completely removed. After we make sure the base is solid and add stone if needed, we will pave the area with new asphalt to be flush with the existing asphalt surrounding it.
-
Asphalt Paving
Sometimes, you just need to start over. When asphalt has deteriorated beyond the point of the driveway or parking lot repairs, the only recourse is a replacement. Every project is different, and our asphalt repair and maintenance company offers the expertise to make sure yours is done in the most effective, efficient manner possible. Since asphalt paving involves larger, heavier equipment, we offer a smaller service area. Please inquire to see if we service your area.
