Infrared Repairs To Potholes
How Infrared Pothole Repairs Benefit Parking Lots in Kelowna, BC
Kelowna’s climate – with its hot summers and cold winters, can wreak havoc on asphalt surfaces. Especially steep or narrow driveways.
The heat of summer can cause asphalt to become brittle, while winter’s freeze-thaw cycles expand existing cracks, leading to nasty tire-popping potholes. Infrared repairs from Blacktop Maintenance addresses these issues quickly and effectively, creating a durable fix that withstands Kelowna’s challenging weather, and fits your budget.
1. Saves Money
Infrared pothole repairs blend new asphalt with existing material, creating a seamless, joint-free patch. Our team can handle large and small pothole repairs, and can also blend in all infrared repairs with our quality sealcoating application.
This process minimizes the need for extensive material replacement and labor, making it more cost-effective than traditional pothole repairs. The efficient process means minimal disruption, reducing downtime for businesses.
2. Lengthens the Life of the Lot
The seamless repair created by infrared repairs prevents water infiltration, which is a major cause of asphalt failure. By eliminating weak points where cracks might develop, these repairs protect the structural integrity of the parking lot, significantly extending its lifespan.
In Kelowna’s climate, where freeze-thaw cycles are common, this added durability is especially crucial.
Using infrared technology, existing asphalt is heated to approximately two inches deep without burning or oxidizing the material.
The softened asphalt is seamlessly mixed with new material, creating a cohesive patch that eliminates joints and weak points. This repair is completed in as little as 15 minutes, ensuring quick turnaround with minimal disruption.
3. Reduces Accidents and Vehicle Damage
Potholes are a major hazard for both vehicles and pedestrians. They can cause accidents, tire damage, and even injuries. Infrared pothole repairs ensure a smooth, even surface that eliminates these safety risks, creating a safer environment for everyone who uses the parking lot.
At Blacktop Maintenance in Kelowna, BC we can help you fix all your potholes, followed up with crack sealing all cracks, and top coating with our top quality sealcoating.
