Stop Patching the Same Hole Every Two Years

Traditional asphalt repair creates a "cold joint"—a weak point where new asphalt meets old. In Southeast Ohio’s freeze-thaw cycles, these joints eventually pull apart. Our infrared process heats the existing asphalt to 325°F, allowing us to rework the area and add virgin material to create a single, continuous surface. It’s faster, greener, and significantly more durable than a standard patch.

Ideal Applications for Infrared Repair

Pothole Remediation: Quickly level dangerous holes to eliminate liability and trip hazards.
High Spots & Transitions: Smooth out "heaved" asphalt around concrete curbs, drains, or ramps without excavation.
Utility Cut Restoration: Perfectly blend patches from gas, water, or sewer line repairs into the original surface.
Water Pooling (Birdbaths): Re-grade low spots to ensure proper drainage and prevent ice patches in winter.

Our Seamless Infrared Repair Process

Phase 1: Thermal Penetration - We position our infrared heating unit over the damaged area, deep-heating the existing asphalt to 325°F. This softens the pavement without burning it, allowing us to rework the material without creating the "cold seams" found in traditional patching.
Phase 2: Restoration & Fortification - Once the asphalt is workable, we rake the area to remove failed aggregate and add virgin, plant-mix asphalt as needed. We introduce specialized rejuvenators to restore the oils lost to oxidation, ensuring the new repair is as flexible and durable as the original installation.
Phase 3: Compaction & Fusion - The site is compacted using a vibratory roller, thermally fusing the edges of the repair to the surrounding pavement. This creates a single, monolithic surface that is completely waterproof and ready for traffic in as little as 20 minutes.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Question

What exactly is Infrared Asphalt Repair and how does it work?

Infrared repair is a cutting-edge restoration process that uses a specialized infrared heater to safely heat a damaged area of asphalt to over 300°F. This softens the existing asphalt back into a workable, fluid state without burning it. We then rake the material, mix in fresh hot asphalt and rejuvenating oils, and compact it. The result is a permanent, flush repair that looks like it was poured that way originally.

Why is an infrared repair better than a traditional saw-cut patch?

Traditional patching requires cutting out a square of asphalt, leaving a cold joint or "seam" where the new patch meets the old pavement. Water eventually gets into that seam, freezes, and destroys the patch. Infrared repair completely eliminates seams. Because we melt the edges of the existing pavement, the new and old asphalt fuse together perfectly into a single, continuous, water-tight surface.

What types of pavement damage are best suited for infrared repair?

Infrared is the absolute premier method for fixing potholes, sunken areas around catch basins/drains, low spots that collect puddles, and oil-damaged sections. It is ideal for targeted structural fixes. However, if an entire parking lot base has collapsed or a massive area has shattered completely, a full replacement or traditional paving may be required.

How long after an infrared repair can we drive on the surface?

One of the greatest benefits of infrared repair is the incredibly fast turnaround time. Because we are not waiting on an entire heavy truckload of fresh asphalt to cure from scratch, the repaired area can typically be reopened to vehicle traffic in as little as 30 to 60 minutes after final compaction. This minimizes downtime and frustration for busy commercial parking lots or residential driveways.
