Get Your Free EstimateAsphalt Patching is the process of cutting out broken sections of pavement, cleaning out the debris, and filling the hole with fresh hot-mix asphalt that gets rolled flat. Prairie Line Asphalt of Bolingbrook provides Asphalt Patching to fix deep potholes, alligator cracking, and sunken spots before they spread across your whole driveway or parking lot. Property owners do not need a total repaving job when only a section has failed, and Asphalt Patching saves serious money while keeping your surface safe. For properties in Bolingbrook, Illinois, Prairie Line Asphalt is here for all your Asphalt Patching needs.
Our first step is to cut clean, straight edges around the damaged area. A ragged edge will not hold a new patch, so we saw-cut down to solid material. Then we dig out the ruined asphalt and check the sub-base underneath. If the gravel base is soft or washed out, we dig that out too, compact fresh stone, and then lay down the new hot mix. We tamp it down tight so it sits flush with the rest of your pavement.
Bolingbrook weather is brutal on asphalt. Freeze-thaw cycles in Cook and Will counties force water into tiny cracks, where it turns to ice and rips the pavement apart from the inside out. Heavy delivery trucks and daily vehicle traffic finish the job, turning small cracks into axle-breaking potholes. Asphalt Patching stops that cycle dead in its tracks by sealing up the weak spots before winter weather sets in. The work will hold up for many years in the Bolingbrook climate.
Homeowners usually worry that a patch will stick out like a sore thumb or sink right back down a month later. A patch will always look a little darker than older, weathered asphalt at first, but it blends in as the sun bakes it. More importantly, Prairie Line Asphalt does not just dump cold patch into a wet hole and tamp it with a shovel. We use proper infrared or saw-cut full-depth removal methods so the patch actually bonds to the surrounding asphalt and stays put.
Prairie Line Asphalt stands behind our patch work with a straightforward workmanship guarantee. You get a solid surface that handles heavy loads and drains right. When we finish the job, we haul away all the old debris and leave your property clean. You can drive on it as soon as it cools down and cures properly. We provide Asphalt Patching services for homes and businesses in Bolingbrook.
A properly installed Asphalt Patch lasts between five to ten years in Bolingbrook, IL. How long Asphalt Patching holds up depends entirely on traffic weight and whether the base underneath was prepped right. If a contractor just fills a hole without fixing a soft sub-base, the Asphalt Patch will fail during the first heavy spring thaw.
Bolingbrook deals with extreme temperature swings, from blistering summer humidity to sub-zero winter blasts. That constant expansion and contraction puts massive stress on asphalt joints. Water is the real enemy here. When snow melts and sneaks into unsealed edges, it freezes and breaks the bond between the old pavement and the new Asphalt Patch.
Good drainage and solid base compaction keep patches lasting for years. If you notice water pooling near your driveway edges or parking lot drains, Asphalt Patching alone will not fix the root cause. Prairie Line Asphalt of Bolingbrook looks at the whole drainage picture before we cut into your pavement so property owners are not paying to fix the same spot twice. For Bolingbrook homes and businesses, Prairie Line Asphalt of Bolingbrook provides reliable Asphalt Patch services.
