ASPHALT REPAIR, RESTORATION (NEW INFRARED TECHNOLOGY) & MILLING/SURFACE PATCHING
3 Methods of Asphalt Patching in Nashville:

ASPHALT MILLING & SURFACE PATCHING IN Nashville, TN
Asphalt milling is a great choice to repair deteriorated asphalt that only involves 1-2 inches of the surface layer. A process called “raveling” is where the oils that bind the asphalt together have failed and the surface crumbles. Over a period of time, raveling causes potholes and ruts that can spread if left untreated. Asphalt milling allows for the removal of the top two inches of asphalt in preparation for new asphalt to be laid. A cold planer is then used to complete this grinding process which helps to break up the deterioration commonly found on the top layers of asphalt. In most areas of raveling, the asphalt foundation is intact. Asphalt milling saves time and money for the consumer by not performing a full depth repair.
Surface, or skin patching, is a temporary fix between scheduled asphalt resurfacing, restoration, or replacement.
If you’re in need of a complete professional resurfacing but still have a few of months until your scheduled resurfacing occurs, skin patching is a viable solution. Be aware, however, that this procedure is only a temporary fix until you can receive permanent repairs. A short-term remedy skin patching can extend the usability of your small- to medium-sized asphalt parking lot or driveway until a permanent solution is in place.
The process of skin patching (also known as “surface patching”) is to place one and a half inches of new hot mix asphalt overtop of damaged and deteriorated asphalt. This will help you get through several months until your next scheduled deep resurfacing, minus the annoying potholes and cracks.
Asphalt milling and skin patching are a cost-effective options that makes sense when you don’t need a full depth foundation repair. Contact Hargrove Sealcoating and Striping today to get an estimate.
ASPHALT RESTORATION: NEW INFRARED TECHNOLOGY
Infrared repairs are a permanent remedy for many of the most common asphalt issues.
Hargrove Sealcoating & Striping now offers infrared repairs. Unlike cold patching or skin surface adjustments, infrared technology allows for a seamless repair and eliminates the unsightly square cuts associated with other methods. It is a permanent fix that can be used on any defect, with the exception of “crocodile cracks,” which indicate a problem with underlying support.
Infrared Road Repair (IRR) is the most technologically-advanced and environmentally-friendly method of asphalt patching on the market. IRR uses heat to aid in the removal of damaged materials. It requires less new product and utilizes the existing asphalt to reduce carbon emissions by up to 33 percent.
During the IRR process, the damaged area is heated to 400 degrees. The compromised material is then removed and mixed with new or reclaimed asphalt. This combined material is reheated into a hot mix to bond with the old, undamaged surface. The repair is joint-less and requires no addition sealant, making it a great solution for repairs when water intrusion is a concern. One of the most appealing benefits of IRR is that it can be performed year-round, day or night. Contact us today to get an estimate for your infrared asphalt repair.
ASPHALT REPLACEMENT: SAW CUT & REMOVAL
Replacement is the only viable option for asphalt failure that results in crocodile/spider cracking, which essentially requires a new foundation.
The process involved with repairing crocodile cracks is very specific and labor intensive. The failing areas must first be identified, then marked with paint, and snapped with a chalk line. Once marked, damaged areas are square cut and between two and six inches of material is excavated. Once the bad asphalt is removed, hot mix asphalt is added and compressed with a vibratory roller.
