Even if you didn’t get a chance to do any maintenance to your asphalt paving this year does not mean that it is destined for failure. Just like many other things, 2020 has altered plenty of schedules, budgets, and plans. But Cassidy Paving is here to help you add some sense of normalcy in your to-do list. We still offer thorough and dependable asphalt repairs regardless of when your last maintenance was. Here are the steps we take in order to provide our residential, industrial, and commercial customers with asphalt that is durable and lessens your liability.
How Cassidy Paving Maintains Your Asphalt
Step 1: The Inspection
When you give us a call and say that you have some asphalt that needs to be repaired but it’s been a while since your last service, we always recommend an inspection. Regardless of the extent of your damage, we want a certified technician out on your property to evaluate the conditions of your blacktop, subbase, drainage, and everything else in between. Some things are not obvious to the naked eye, that’s why you should only trust a licensed, certified, and reputable company, like Cassidy Paving, to tell you what path you should take with your asphalt repairs.
Step 2: Make a Plan
If it was only this past year that you didn’t do any maintenance, chances are lots of damage wasn’t done in that timespan. The great thing about asphalt paving is that no two places will receive the same wear and tear. Therefore, just because one high-traffic area of your asphalt needs repairs doesn’t mean the rest of it will. We will check for the most common issues, such as cracking, distortion, disintegration, raveling, and potholes. There are a variety of ways in which your asphalt can show signs of disrepair and no two plans for repair will be exactly alike. Our crew will work with your budget, timeline, and the Massachusetts weather to decide how and when to make the repairs.
Step 3: Deciding on Quick Fixes or Scheduled Repair?
Since we are easing into the colder days of the year, there may be some areas to be addressed right away. Although we typically don’t recommend making asphalt repairs in the winter, sometimes certain issues, especially those that cause liability problems for your staff and customers, can’t wait. In these circumstances, we will prepare a cold mix asphalt for small areas that need to be patched. Our goal here is to reduce the liability of hazardous potholes and weakness that could impede safety until we are able to come back in the springtime to do a more permanent fix with a hot mix asphalt. Especially if you are a business owner, asphalt issues can bring about an increased risk for you and your employees.
