A “hole-y” parking lot
As with all things, asphalt has its downside: as soon as freshly laid hot asphalt pavement mix begins to cool, the aging process begins. A middle Tennessee parking lot has many enemies: gas, oil, sun oxidation, salt, water penetration, and hot or cold weather.
Oxygen and water combine with asphaltic binder of the pavement causing a chemical change. This process is necessary in the beginning for the pavement to become hard and firm. However, if the process is not halted, a complete deterioration of the asphaltic binder will take place and soon your new asphalt parking lot will be nothing but a layer of loose stone.
Protect Your Investment
In addition to routine inspections and ongoing maintenance, sealcoating asphalt pavement repairs with a coal tar or asphalt-based emulsion slows pavement deterioration by protecting against the enemies of a parking lot. However, for maximum benefit, sealcoat needs to be applied approximately 12 months after the initial application and then on a regular basis, about every 24 to 48 months, thereafter.

Nashville Pothole Repair & Patching
Patching is a common Asphalt Repair on areas of pavement with potholes. Potholes occur when water seeps into pavement through unsealed or improperly sealed cracks. When the water freezes, it expands and enlarges the crack. When the ice under the pavement melts, a void is left. Surrounding pavement falls into the void and forms a pothole. This is when Nashville's Asphalt Pothole Repair & Patching can help! For effective pothole repair in Nashville, TN, and reliable asphalt patching, our expert team provides timely and efficient solutions to keep your pavement smooth and safe.
Removal & Replacement
Asphalt Repair – better than new!
As asphalt pavement progresses through its life-cycle, its appearance diminishes over time. Hairline cracks spread and deepen within the asphalt. Without ongoing maintenance, water will enter through cracks and holes may form, undermining the substrate. The most effective form of asphalt repair is to remove and replace the deteriorated area. For the best results in asphalt repair in Nashville, our expert team ensures your pavement looks and performs like new. Trust us for all your asphalt repair needs in Nashville to extend the life of your surfaces and enhance their durability.
Asphalt Resurfacing
In more severe cases of asphalt failure, a long-term solution is to resurface the asphalt pavement (also referred to as overlay). If you notice grade depressions (standing water on the pavement) and/or large sections of alligatored areas (interconnecting cracks forming a series of blocks resembling an alligator’s skin), it is a good idea to have your pavement resurfaced.
Infrared Repairs
This unique method of Asphalt Repair blends hot-mix asphalt right in with the original asphalt and then compacts the area to create a seamless restoration. If you notice potholes, pavement heaving or uneven surfaces surrounding catch basins, or rough surfaces in drive lanes or parking stalls, it is a good idea to consider infrared asphalt repair.
