1. Zoning and Scope of work
Our team will reference the project images in your presence to attain the scope of work, measurements, and proximity of work. The area is marked prior to project initiation and confirmed by the customer to ensure alignment between operations and our customers expectations.
2. Clean the Surface
Cleaning is the first crucial step to ensuring a long lasting installation. We use a robust gas propelled power broom designed to execute a deep sweep on any outdoor surface. It’s optimal for sweeping tough debris.
Once all surface materials have been loosened by the power broom; a power blower is used to ensure the surface is clear of any debris.
3. Infrared Heating
Infrared Heating is a new state-of-the-art technology that heats the current asphalt to a depth of around two inches without oxidizing it or burning it. The process of mixing fresh asphalt with infrared heated existing asphalt allows the production of a joint-free ramp.
4. Asphalt Grading and Application
Our Asphalt Hot Box includes chambers that can store up to four tonnes of fresh asphalt materials at a constant temperature. This is necessary to ensure the asphalt being applied is maintained at an optimal temperature, keeping it in a high quality condition. We proceed to apply the appropriate amount of hot asphalt while creating a smooth transition between the existing asphalt surface and garage floor. The gradual transition will help achieve ease of access into the garage. Furthermore, it may reduce water penetration into the foundation of the house.
5. Compaction
Lastly, the asphalt will be compacted to an optimal amount to minimize shifting, and to prolong the lifespan of the new surface.
