WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE INFRARED ASPHALT REPAIR?

TIME - Repairs can be made in a fraction of the time of conventional methods. Your asphalt surface can be opened to traffic within 30 minutes of the completion of the repair.


QUALITY - Infrared repair creates a thermal bonding with the surrounding pavement making the repair an integral piece of the pavement. This means not seams for water to re-enter and cause joint failure.


RECYCLE - Most existing asphalt is recycled leaving little or no waste material. Material be hauled away can be reduced by up to 95%.


LABOUR - Repairs are fast and simple. Three men and less than 20 minutes is what is required for a typical repair.


EQUIPMENT - Infrared repairs often only need one truck and one asphalt roller. This eliminates all the machinery typically associated with conventional repairs.


COST - Savings realized in materials, manpower, machinery and convenience make Infrared repair the most cost effective.
