Rabine Paving - Infrared Repairs
What is infrared? Infrared is unit/tool which is a flameless direct heat source that can reach temperatures up to over 500 degrees in order to re heat existing asphalt. By heating up the existing asphalt it allows us to fuse old and new pavements together creating a seamless pavement.
By heating the existing asphalt pavement, infrared technology allows us to create seamless patches often demanded on newer pavements when repairs are needed.
Since this method fuses old and new pavements together there is no longer a seam that water can seep through, in between the pavements. Since there are no joints – it eliminates minor maintenance needs such as crack filling.
When adding onto existing parking areas, infrared is used to have the appearance of one continuous pavement area. This is not only better functionally, but aesthetically.
The infrared process is also used to stamp existing asphalt pavements creating a decorative pavement. By heating up existing asphalt to pliable temperature, the asphalt stamp template is then applied and an imprint is made.
