The First Source Way: Our Asphalt Repair Process

At First Source Asphalt, our asphalt repair process is a comprehensive approach designed to restore the functionality and appearance of your pavement while ensuring long-term durability. Proper asphalt repair is essential to prevent further deterioration, enhance safety, and protect your investment. Here’s a detailed look at our step-by-step process from start to finish.

Starting the Right Way: Asphalt Repair Assessment

The asphalt repair process begins with a thorough inspection of the damaged area. Our team evaluates the extent of the damage, whether it’s cracks, potholes, or surface deterioration. During this phase, we determine the root cause of the issue, such as water infiltration, heavy traffic, or inadequate drainage, and tailor our repair strategy accordingly. Identifying the underlying cause is crucial to ensuring the problem doesn’t reoccur. This also gives our team a chance to determine cost and project timeline.

Preparing for the Project

Once our assessment is complete and the project begins, we prepare the surface for repair. This step involves cleaning the damaged area to remove dirt, debris, vegetation, and any loose asphalt. For cracks, we ensure that the edges are properly cleaned and, if necessary, widened to allow the filler to adhere effectively. For potholes and more extensive damage, we remove the compromised asphalt to reach a stable base. Proper surface preparation is critical to achieving a strong bond between the repair materials and the existing pavement.

Repairing the Asphalt: Crack Filling and Pothole Repair

Depending on the type of damage, we proceed with the appropriate repair method. For cracks, we use a high-quality crack filler, typically a hot rubberized material, to seal the gap and prevent water from seeping into the underlying layers. For potholes, we fill the excavated area with premium hot mix asphalt, ensuring the material is compacted in layers to create a solid, durable repair. Our team uses specialized equipment to ensure the surface is leveled and blends seamlessly with the surrounding pavement.

Finishing Touches

After filling and compacting the damaged area, we focus on smoothing and finishing the surface. This ensures the repair is not only functional but also visually appealing. We also perform any necessary edge sealing to enhance water resistance and protect the repair. For larger repair projects, we may recommend a sealcoating application to provide an extra layer of protection and uniform appearance.

Final Inspection and Maintenance Advice

Before completing the job, we conduct a final inspection to ensure the repair meets ours and your standards. We provide maintenance advice to help you prolong the life of your asphalt and prevent future issues. At First Source Asphalt, we pride ourselves on delivering reliable, professional asphalt repairs that stand the test of time, ensuring your pavement is safe, functional, and visually appealing.
