WINTER REPAIRS START WITH AN ASSESSMENT
Cold weather changes
the conditions.
We account for it.
Infrared repair can be used in winter when the site and pavement are suitable. The decision depends on more than the temperature on a forecast.
We’ll discuss the damage and urgency, review access, and determine whether a repair can be carried out under the conditions. If an immediate lasting repair isn’t suitable, we’ll explain the limitations and next steps.
Temperature & wind
Cold and wind affect heating and how much time is available to work and compact the asphalt.
Access & the foundation
Safe equipment access matters, and heat at the surface cannot correct a weak, moving, or failed base.
