LIFETIME Coverage Insights
Black Tar Corp.'s Lifetime Warranty reflects our commitment to your asphalt's longevity, typically ranging from 15 to 30 years. We pledge to repair (and discuss replacement options if necessary) the warranted surface as long as it's feasible, ensuring you understand every factor that might affect its durability.
How the Warranty Works
Our Asphalt Lifetime Warranty ensures the ongoing care of your asphalt through regular maintenance. Starting after the first winter and continuing every other winter from April to November, we undertake maintenance visits to assess, repair, and enhance your asphalt's condition with four coats of UN1999 tar liquid. Repairs are conducted exclusively during these visits, with a commitment to return and complete any unresolved defects. This approach guarantees the durability of your asphalt, protecting your investment with dedicated attention to maintenance and repair needs.
Comprehensive Wear and Tear Coverage at No Extra Repair Cost
Our Asphalt Lifetime Warranty offers unparalleled coverage for wear and tear, including cracks, heaving, pooling, potholes, and vegetation growth, all at no extra cost for repairs, ensuring your peace of mind. To ensure this comprehensive protection continues, periodic resealing by Black Tar Corp is required, starting one year after installation and then every two years thereafter. During each maintenance visit, we'll conduct a thorough inspection of your asphalt surface at no additional charge and perform any necessary wear and tear repairs free of charge. You'll receive a quote for the resealing service between November and March, with all maintenance and resealing work scheduled from May to November, ensuring your asphalt remains in top condition year-round.

Why is it important to seal my asphalt biennially after each frost season?
Frost leads to ground expansion, which can shift the base beneath your asphalt, impairing its flexibility and initiating cracks. Additionally, exposure to heat oxidizes the tar, drying out and brittling your asphalt over time. Tar plays a crucial role in keeping asphalt flexible, enabling it to adapt to temperature fluctuations and ground movement. By reapplying tar, you restore your asphalt's elasticity and reduce surface wear, ensuring its longevity and durability.
Is additional work necessary after asphalt installation?
Yes, it is essential to support all edges of the asphalt with suitable compacted materials such as soil and seeds, sod, interlock, and/or concrete within 10 days of installation. This helps prevent over-expansion and cracking of the edges, ensuring the longevity and durability of your asphalt surface.
How are repairs conducted under the ASPHALT LIFETIME WARRANTY, and what should I expect regarding color variations?
Black Tar Corp. will handle all required repairs to the warranted asphalt surface using appropriate methods such as crack repair and/or cut and patch techniques, determined by our experts. Please be aware that due to the inherent characteristics of asphalt materials and repair procedures, color variations may occur between the original surface and the repaired area. These differences in color are normal and do not affect the overall performance or integrity of your asphalt surface.
