Asphalt Milling and Surface Patching

Asphalt milling is a great choice to repair deteriorated asphalt that only involves 1-2 inches of the surface layer. A process called “raveling” is where the oils that bind the asphalt together have failed and the surface crumbles. Over a period of time, raveling causes potholes and ruts that can spread if left untreated. Asphalt milling allows for the removal of the top two inches of asphalt in preparation for new asphalt to be laid. A cold planer is then used to complete this grinding process which helps to break up the deterioration commonly found on the top layers of asphalt. In most areas of raveling, the asphalt foundation is intact. Asphalt milling saves time and money for the consumer by not performing a full-depth repair.

Surface, or skin patching, is a temporary fix between scheduled asphalt resurfacing, restoration, or replacement. When you need asphalt repair in Franklin, TN turn to our expert team at Hargrove Sealcoating and Striping.

If you’re in need of complete professional resurfacing but still have a few months until your scheduled resurfacing, skin patching is a viable solution. Be aware, however, that this procedure is only a temporary fix until you can receive permanent repairs. A short-term remedy skin patching can extend the usability of your small- to medium-sized asphalt parking lot or driveway until a permanent solution is in place.

The process of skin patching (also known as “surface patching”) is to place one and a half inches of new hot mix asphalt overtop of damaged and deteriorated asphalt. This will help you get through several months until your next scheduled deep resurfacing, minus the annoying potholes and cracks.

Asphalt milling and skin patching are cost-effective options that make sense when you don’t need a full-depth foundation repair. C /site/524a9249ccde4278bd697e5c275f226a/ ontact Hargrove Sealcoating and Striping today to get a FREE estimate for asphalt repair in Spring Hill, TN.

New Infrared Asphalt Restoration Technology

Infrared repairs are a permanent remedy for many of the most common asphalt issues. Hargrove Sealcoating and Striping now offers infrared repairs. Unlike cold patching or skin surface adjustments, infrared technology allows for a seamless repair and eliminates the unsightly square cuts associated with other methods. It is a permanent fix that can be used on any defect, with the exception of “crocodile cracks,” which indicate a problem with underlying support.

Infrared Road Repair (IRR) is the most technologically advanced and environmentally-friendly method of asphalt patching on the market. IRR uses heat to aid in the removal of damaged materials. It requires fewer new products and utilizes the existing asphalt to reduce carbon emissions by up to 33 percent.

During the IRR process, the damaged area is heated to 400 degrees. The compromised material is then removed and mixed with new or reclaimed asphalt. This combined material is reheated into a hot mix to bond with the old, undamaged surface. The repair is joint-less and requires no additional sealant, making it a great solution for repairs when water intrusion is a concern. One of the most appealing benefits of IRR is that it can be performed year-round, day or night. Contact us today to get a FREE estimate for your infrared asphalt repair in Franklin, TN.

Asphalt Replacement: Saw Cut and Removal

Replacement is the only viable option for asphalt failure that results in crocodile/spider cracking, which essentially requires a new foundation.

The process involved with repairing crocodile cracks is very specific and labor-intensive. The failing areas must first be identified, then marked with paint, and snapped with a chalk line. Once marked, damaged areas are square cut and between two and six inches of material is excavated. Once the bad asphalt is removed, hot mix asphalt is added and compressed with a vibratory roller.
