Rose Paving / June 22, 2011

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 or uneven surfaces surrounding catch basins (this is a common problem resulting after several freeze-thaw cycles), or rough surfaces in drive lanes or parking stalls, it is a good idea to consider infrared repair.

A Closer Look at Sealcoating

Rose Paving / May 04, 2011

Sealcoating is one of the most important elements of a pavement management plan. A sealcoat consists of either coal tar pitch or asphalt cement mixed with inert fillers, water, emulsifying agents, or additives.

Sealcoating should be considered for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, it protects and prolongs the life expectancy of your parking lot. It accomplishes this by sealing over the liquid asphalt cement that holds together the aggregate and small fines within the pavement. The sealant prevents the surface from becoming porous and separating along seams and end cracks. Sealcoating also enhances the aesthetic appeal of a parking lot. Over time, the surface of asphalt pavement oxidizes and becomes gray or faded in appearance. Sealcoating provides a vibrant black finish that nicely contrasts with striping, clearly distinguishing pavement markings.
