Asphalt Repair

Asphalt Repair in Baltimore, MD

Asphalt driveways and parking areas are constantly exposed to fluctuating temperatures and harsh weather conditions. These factors contribute to wear and tear that can escalate as the surface ages, especially if not properly maintained. At AID Paving, our team is skilled in the complexities of asphalt repair, enhancing your pavement to its optimal condition.

Our technicians engage in a thorough assessment process to identify the specific issues affecting your asphalt. This approach provides effective and long-lasting repairs to enhance the overall durability of the surface. We help maintain the integrity and appearance of your asphalt, preventing further damage and costly replacements.

Common Asphalt Damage We Repair

Much like any heavily used infrastructure, asphalt surfaces are vulnerable to various damages. 

Some of the most frequent types of asphalt damage we repair include:

  • Cracking: Various cracks, including alligator, longitudinal, and transverse cracks, can develop due to thermal stress, aging, and overloading. These cracks can allow water infiltration that exacerbates the damage if not promptly addressed.
  • Potholes: These are often formed by the freeze-thaw cycle after water penetrates through existing cracks, leading to vehicle damage and trip hazards.
  • Depressions: Low areas in the asphalt surface that collect water can indicate subsurface issues. These depressions can lead to further structural damage if water collects and sits for long periods.
  • Rutting: These are depressions in the wheel tracks and can be caused by repeated traffic, which leads to structural failure in the asphalt layers. 
  • Edge cracks: These may form along the edges of the asphalt surface due to lack of support or poor drainage and can quickly spread and deteriorate the entire edge if left unrepaired.
  • Surface wear: Asphalt may lose its resilience due to oxidation and wear off from traffic, leading to a faded, brittle surface, which can result in raveling and loss of aggregate.

If you notice any of these issues developing, call us to get professional repairs and prevent further deterioration.

Our Asphalt Repair Services in Baltimore County

Our solutions help extend the lifespan of your asphalt, improve safety, and enhance visual appeal. We use the latest techniques and high-quality materials to keep each repair durable and effective.

Our services include:

  • Crack sealing: We expertly seal cracks using high-quality, flexible sealants that accommodate the asphalt’s natural expansion and contraction.
  • Pothole filling: We cut around the area to remove all deteriorated asphalt and fill potholes with a new mix, compacting it thoroughly to create a surface that blends seamlessly with the surrounding area.
  • Asphalt patching: For more extensive damage, we remove the damaged asphalt, prepare the base, and apply new asphalt for a fully restored surface.
  • Asphalt resurfacing: When the surface layer of the asphalt has deteriorated, but the base remains intact, we apply a new layer of asphalt over the existing pavement to restore its smoothness and structural integrity.
  • Overlay: This involves placing a new layer of asphalt over the existing one, which is ideal for surfaces with widespread damage that do not require a full replacement.
  • Sealcoating: This involves applying a protective coating that shields asphalt from UV rays, oil spills, water, and other damaging elements.

How Long Does Asphalt Repair Last?

Typically, minor repairs such as patching or filling small cracks can last anywhere from 1 to 3 years, while more extensive rehabilitations like an overlay can last 10 to 15 years or more under ideal conditions. The key to maximizing the lifespan of any asphalt repair is getting the job done with high-quality materials and proper techniques.

Environmental conditions affect the durability of asphalt repairs. For example, areas that experience extreme temperature fluctuations, heavy rainfall, or snow can see a faster degradation of asphalt due to the freeze-thaw cycles and water penetration that can exacerbate cracks and potholes. Asphalt in more temperate climates may last longer due to less severe weather conditions. Larger vehicles can cause more stress and wear on the asphalt, leading to a need for more frequent touch-ups or interventions.

At AID Paving, we’re here to help you assess the current condition of your asphalt, recommend the most effective repair strategies, and execute those repairs with precision and care.
