Are you dealing with a worn parking lot or driveway in Minnesota? Doctor Asphalt is the local paving company you can count on to diagnose your pavement damage correctly. We also have cost-effective remedies like asphalt overlays for Minnesota property owners.
Overlays repair worn pavement by adding a new asphalt layer on the existing surface. This process covers surface damage, fills small cracks, and restores the appearance. The new layer also strengthens the pavement and helps extend its lifespan.
Asphalt overlays restore a pavement surface that has deteriorated over time. The Dr. Asphalt paving crew typically performs the following steps during this repair process.
Assessment and preparation
The first step is to assess the pavement’s condition because structural issues must be addressed before the repair. The pavement is then prepared by removing debris or loose material.
Application of tack coat
A tack coat, made of a thin bitumen emulsion, is applied to the existing surface for proper adhesion of the new asphalt.
Placement of the asphalt overlay
Your trusted paving contractors can lay down the new layer once the tack coat has dried. The overlay is typically a hot mix of asphalt applied in layers using specialized paving equipment. The thickness will depend on the damage’s extent and the pavement’s intended use.
Compaction and finishing
After placing the overlay, the Dr. Asphalt crew compacts the new layer using a roller to ensure it is smooth and firmly bonded.
Curing and opening to traffic
The newly repaired pavement can cure for some time, typically several days, before being opened to traffic. During this time, the pavement must be protected from stresses that could damage the surface.
Asphalt overlays are a cost-effective way to restore worn pavement and improve the safety and appearance of parking lots, driveways, and other paved surfaces. Minnesota property owners can trust that Doctor Asphalt will use the best repair methods and center your needs throughout the pavement restoration.
