Ron Hazelton’s YouTube channel is about things a person could do to improve their home. In one of the videos, How To Resurface A Driveway, he talks to his audience about the ins and outs of resurfacing a driveway and how they can do it themselves.
Damaged asphalt doesn’t look very attractive when it’s damaged, and in some cases, it can be hazardous. It is relatively simple to repair, so it shouldn’t take too much time or resources to fix it.
1. Climate
Choosing to repair when the weather is fair is the best approach.
Usually, anything between 10° – 24° Celsius is a great range.
Also, it’s important to choose a relatively dry season for asphalt repair. When water infiltrates asphalt, it tends to cause more damage.
2. The Degree Of Damage
Assess the level of damage before attempting asphalt repair. Some degrees of damage may require replacement rather than repair.
3. Age
Well, as asphalt gets older, it gets weaker. The structural integrity of the asphalt should remain intact for at least 20 years before it needs replacing.
Repairing asphalt can often seem tough, but considering the factors above can make the process easier.
