Make Your Driveway Last
A driveway that is uneven is not only unattractive, but it also puts the integrity of your entire property at risk. Asphalt is an essential highway material, but it is also vulnerable to natural damage. When the road is exposed to consistent debris and water, it weakens which will eventually lead to cracks and fissures. Luckily, you can prevent these problems by hiring a professional asphalt patch work service. We can help you maintain the condition of your driveway. There are only a few things you need to know before you hire one.
Date of Repair
The timeline required to complete the asphalt patch will depend on a few things, including the material you need, weather conditions, and traffic flow. Assume that this is a mid-sized project on a major thoroughfare. On average, it will take two to three days to repair the asphalt with a hot mix asphalt.
Cost Per Square Foot
The cost per square foot is not fixed. It will depend on the size of the area, the material used, and the weather conditions. A seasoned asphalt contractor will have a good idea of what your budget will be and will set about to meet that number. That being said, assume that a hot mix put down costs from $1.50 to $2.50 a square foot.
Materials
There are three different materials that can be used for asphalt patching, and each carries its own set of benefits and disadvantages. For example, bituminous asphalt is made from asphalt that asphalt and oil. This has high slip ratings and good flexibility, but it’s slow to cure. Lastly, asphalt concrete is a mixture of cement, stone, sand, and water; this should be mixed in a certain way to produce the ideal asphalt hot mix.
