HOTPATCHERS

PRIVATE ROADWAYS

POTHOLES CREATE SERIOUS LIABILITY ISSUES IN PARKING LOT AND ROADWAY AREAS DUE TO THE POTENTIAL HAZARD TO VEHICLES AND TO PEDESTRIANS.

​

The Repair Process:

​

Stage One – The broken, failed, or liability areas are identified as concerns that should be addressed.

​

Stage Two – The areas are cut square with a jack-hammer or saw cut (depending on the region or by request) and excavated to the aggregate sub base.

Stage Three – Asphalt is installed at an average compact depth of 3”.

Stage Four – Finally, edges are sealed with asphalt emulsion to improve bonding with the surrounding existing asphalt.

In situations with a large amount of patching in one parking lot or roadway, asphalt milling (or scarifying) options are also available, which uses specialized milling equipment to cut down on excavation time.
