Cracks, if not addressed, will allow water through and under the asphalt, softening the sub-grade beneath it. The weakening of the sub-grade, combined with vehicle traffic and freeze/thaw cycles, will eventually lead to asphalt failure and expensive repairs. To prevent this damage, we seal cracks with a hot, rubberized crack sealing material that is specially formulated for parking lots. This highly elastic material stretches with the movement in the pavement, keeping water out all year long. First Washington Realty has worked closely with Paradise Asphalt Maintenance for several years on both small repair jobs as well as large scale projects.
Since newly installed asphalt is 95% aggregate and 5% asphalt binder, it is critical to protect that binder from degradation due to water, sunlight, and petroleum products. Our 100% coal tar emulsion sealer was originally developed for the FAA to protect asphalt tarmacs during airplane refueling, and meets all current federal specifications. To this sealer we add high silica sand loads to produce are wear-resistant coating that protects and beautifies any parking lot surface.
