Asphalt Repair
TYPES OF ASPHALT REPAIRS
Asphalt repairs are needed because although asphalt is a very durable coating, it is difficult to fight against severe weather in Quebec; freeze/thaw, and wear of time. Over the years, your asphalt paving deteriorates, loses its old beauty, and becomes difficult to maintain. In some cases, your asphalt can also show cracks and holes or hollows. One of the most important reasons to repair your asphalt is to prevent water from entering. There are 3 kinds of asphalt repairs:
crack repair (s)
hole repair (s)
dent repair
Benefits of repairing your asphalt:
• Base protection
• Prevents contamination of healthy areas
• Extends the life of your parking lot
• Quality/price advantage

Pothole, hole, and trough
If there is a hole in your asphalt, it will enlarge over time and water will seep into it; making your asphalt more prone to cracking and deterioration due to freeze and thaw. Not to mention that a drop in the ground can be dangerous for the risk of injury. This is also the case with a hollow that fills with water and forms a real ice rink in winter. Repair is necessary, an injury can happen quickly, safety is very important for you and your loved ones.
Procedure for repairing holes and pits in asphalt:
- Cleaning and preparation of the surface to be repaired
- Application of glue/adhesive to ensure better adhesion
- Hot asphalt application and compaction
CUTTING

Cracks
Sealing cracks in your asphalt driveway is a preventative maintenance program that aims to reduce or prevent water from entering your asphalt. Cracking due to water infiltration will gradually deteriorate your asphalt parking lot. This type of treatment slows down the infiltration of water inside the asphalt pavement and therefore protects the foundation. The treatment of cracks slows down the degradation of the pavement and prolongs its life. If the crack is less than an inch; a sealant treatment will suffice where we will fill the crack with a sealant that will prevent water infiltration, if the crack is larger then we will repair it with asphalt.
