In some instances, infrared asphalt repair is not the solution. In this situation, the asphalt was clearly breaking up due to inadequate base material. Usually it is easy for us to determine what process would better fit your pavement's situation. In this situation, there was very little gravel under the asphalt and the whole hill was clay. We dug down about a foot, added tons of new gravel, and paved 2-3 inches of asphalt on the surface. In the cracked areas where the base was still okay, we implemented infrared heats for the long lasting cost efficient Watertown asphalt repair.
