Addressing Common Asphalt Woes:

Our experienced team tackles a wide range of asphalt repair needs:

• Potholes: Those dreaded road craters? We eliminate them with precision patching, restoring a smooth and safe driving surface.

• Utility Cuts and Trenches: Settling after utility work can leave uneven surfaces. We expertly patch and level these areas to create a seamless transition.

• Manholes and Catchbasins: Sunken or uneven manholes and catchbasins can be tripping hazards. We raise and level them using durable patching techniques.

• Snowplow Damage: Harsh winters can take a toll on asphalt. We repair cracks and uneven surfaces caused by snow removal equipment.

• Dumpster Areas: Heavy loads and constant use can damage asphalt around dumpsters. We provide targeted patching and reinforcement to withstand heavy traffic.

• High Traffic Areas: Areas with constant use are more prone to wear and tear. We utilize heavy-duty patching methods designed for high-traffic zones.

• Low and High Spots: Uneven surfaces can cause drainage problems and create tripping hazards. We correct these issues with targeted patching and leveling techniques.

• Sunken Areas: Settling around foundations and garage doors can cause dips in the asphalt. We raise and stabilize these areas with appropriate patching methods.

Tailored Patching Solutions:

No two asphalt repairs are exactly alike. That's why Grade A Asphalt offers a variety of patching techniques to address the specific needs of your project:

• Saw Cut Patching: This industry-standard method is the most durable and long-lasting. We use a saw to create a clean edge for the patch, ensuring a seamless bond with the existing asphalt.

• Surface Patching: For minor cracks and imperfections limited to the top 1 to 3 inches of asphalt, surface patching offers a quick and cost-effective solution.

• Binder and Surface Patching: When cracks extend deeper, affecting the top layer (surface) and the base layer (binder), this method tackles both areas for a more comprehensive repair, typically patching 2 to 4 inches deep.

• Full Depth Patching: For severe damage extending to the gravel sub-base (6 to 10 inches deep), we perform a full-depth patch. This involves replacing and compacting the compromised gravel before installing new asphalt.

• Milling/Grinding Patches: For larger repairs, especially on roadways and parking lots, we utilize milling machines to remove compromised asphalt (1 to 6 inches deep). The area is then swept, cleaned, and prepared with a tack coat (liquid asphalt primer) to ensure proper bonding with the new asphalt patch.
