Crack Sealing
Prevent Further Damage by Sealing Cracks Early
Crack sealing is a fast and economical way to extend the life of your parking lot or driveway and can generally be completed quickly and without disrupting your business or home.
How crack sealing prevents potholes and frost-heaves
Winter accelerates this process due to freeze / thaw processes where water that is trapped in the asphalt sub-base freezes, expands, and pushes the pavement up – causing frost heaves. When warmer weather arrives, thawing causes the sub-base to contract and soften, leaving a void. Without support, the pavement ultimately begins to cave-in.
How Infrared Pothole Repair Recycled Old pavement into virtually new pavement
We then take an asphalt rake and rake the asphalt as if it was brand new material. We can heat as large as a 6′ x 8′ (48′ sq.) or as small as a 2’x2′ (4’sq) area at a time. We can continually move the machine to efficiently tackle extra long areas.
Once the old pavement has been heated and raked, crews add new asphalt as needed to meet the grade and then compact the area with a vibratory roller. With JDK’s infrared method, you get a permanent patch without a seam. The infrared actually heats the adjacent area too, so there is no seam for water to get into.
