The Process - Conventional vs. Infrared - Old vs. New
Repairing asphalt by conventional methods is a very expensive and time-consuming process. It requires a significant amount of equipment, material and manpower, and the results are often far from permanent. Even when done correctly, the finished repair is left with a cold seam where hot asphalt meets the existing pavement. This cold seam is the "weak link" and is where water will eventually re-enter the repair and cause it to fail.
