ASPHALT SEALCOATING

We offer residential, town home, and small commercial Sealcoating. We use only the best products from Pitch Black. We have a special formulation to give us an added advantage over the competition. Basically our sealant lasts longer and is blacker then the competition.

Look below for our 8 Step Process.

ASPHALT PATCHING

Cutting out, removing, replacing driveway aprons. Cut out patching or skim patching of driveways. Areas in need of patching are sunken, broken or potholed areas.

*Service not available in all areas, please call to inquire.

CRACK REPAIR

Hot crack sealant is used to fill cracks in asphalt. We also do joint filling with the same 400 degree sealant. Crack and joint filling protects against moisture intrusion-the leading cause of pavement distress. Using hot pour fillers greatly reduces the risk of water damage and helps prevent settling, resulting in potholes, low spots and web cracking.

EDGING

Consists of cutting grass back off driveway in a professionally cut line. Keeping grass off driveway is important because grass can grow through the asphalt, resulting in broken areas of your driveway. Not to mention a nicely edged driveway looks great.

8 Step Sealcoating Process

1.  Power edging of the driveway.
2.  Power Cleaning using high power industrial blowers and steel bristle brooms with good old fashion muscle power. 
3.  Hot rubber joint filling. Consists of filling apron gaps with 400 degree hot rubber. 
4.  Hot rubber crack repair. Consists of hot crack sealing of mainline cracks in the driveway. 
5.  Oil Treatment. We use a special primer to treat oil to prevent it from bleeding through newly sealcoated pavement. 
6.  Edge Driveway with Sealer. We edge the entire perimeter of your driveway by hand. 
7.  Seal entire driveway giving you maximum sealant coverage and value for your money. 
8.  Barricade Driveway with wide bright yellow and black Back to Black Driveways tape.

11 Step Patchwork Process

Patchwork: Driveway aprons, we cut them out, remove them, and install new ones. We also do cut out patching or skim patching of driveways. Areas in need of patching are sunken areas, broken areas, or potholed areas.
1.  Measure area out from garage door 2' to 4' depending on size of apron in need of replacement. Then use straight edge and mark with chalk line. 
2.  Cut apron out using high power chop saw with diamond blade. 
3.  Remove old apron and haul away. 
4.  Void fill foundation. Most of the problem as to why your apron sinks in the first place is there are open cell blocks below your apron allowing water and erosion to fall into those open cells. We fill those voids. 
5.  Base using Class 5 base. If there are low spots or base we install new base for optimal performance. 
6.  Clean all debris on driveway and concrete floor. We don’t want small loose rocks to get under plate tamper and create scratches in new apron during tamping step. 
7.  Tack coat edges using asphalt binder. This creates a better bond so asphalt isn’t as easy to pull back and leave seams. 
8.  Install new asphalt 41a bituminous to 3"-4". 
9.  Tamp in new asphalt using high compaction plate tamper with water for a nice smooth and highly compacted finish. 
10.  Clean any left over debris and sweep entire area. 
11.  Barricade area using highly visible caution tape.
