Our Process for Infrared Asphalt Repairs

Applying Infrared Heat

We start this process by applying infrared heat to the pothole or damaged area. This heat is so intense that it makes the asphalt soft.

Filling the Crack or Pothole

This heat is so intense that it makes the asphalt soft, allowing us to add fresh asphalt and a hot binder mixture to fill the hole or crack.

Smoothing the Surface

Once the new asphalt is poured, we use vibrating tools to ensure an even finish. Depending on the size, the new patch should be ready for traffic in about 20 minutes.

Advantages of Infrared Patching

Infrared patching and repairs work best for minor damages and can be performed at any time during the year, unlike other asphalt repair methods. Here is a comparison of how infrared beats other methods:
