What is the function of seal coat?

Seal coat has two purposes: protection and aesthetics. As asphalt ages and is driven on, the surface can erode and open up to further deterioration. A coating of sealer halts this process and helps the surface last longer. Seal coat also serves as a cosmetic function. A well groomed parking area makes a strong first impression on your business or community.

How often should I seal coat?

Sealer should be applied every two to four years, or as needed, depending on the amount of traffic your parking area receives.

What is the function of crack fill?

Crack fill prevents water from reaching and eroding the asphalt's limestone base. When water enters and freezes within the asphalt, it fractures the asphalt and weakens the limestone base. Crack fill performs a vital function in the sustainability of the asphalt by stopping the constant seepage and assault of water to the base. Illini Suburban Asphalt Maintenance Inc. uses Flex-A-Fill hot crack sealant to minimize extensive and frequent repairs.

What is the function of overlay?

Overlays are usually done for two reasons: to repair pavement before significant deterioration occurs and to direct and maintain proper drainage. Timing is a crucial element to maintain the life and appearance of your asphalt pavement. Our team will help you determine the ideal timing and location to apply an overlay. We also strive to ensure that a decision to overlay is both economical and necessary. 

Will an overlay crack?

Over time it will, yes.

How does Illini Suburban Asphalt Maintenance Inc. repair potholes?

We have two options for pothole repairs. The first is an economical, bandage-type approach where we simply fill the pothole with an asphalt patch. Generally, this repair is temporary and depending on site conditions, will need to be performed again. The second, more permanent solution is a standard cut and patch. We cut out the defective area, rebase it and reapply new asphalt. The seams where we cut the defective area out will be crack filled to perfection.

How does Illini Suburban Asphalt Maintenance Inc. schedule the work to minimize inconvenience for my customers?

Illini Suburban will work closely with you to get the work done in a timely fashion and at minimum inconvenience. We are available to start early in the morning, before the area will be in use and when necessary, can schedule our work over the weekends. We can also seal and/or repair areas in segments to minimize the impact on your customers. Whatever your situation, we put you and your clients as the highest priority.

How long can I expect my asphalt pavement to last?

At Illini Suburban Asphalt Inc. we pride ourselves on providing our customers with the most for their investment. We will consult with you to create a comprehensive maintenance schedule over the life span of the asphalt. Clients who follow our recommendations can expect an average life-expectancy of 15 to 20 years or longer for properly maintained asphalt.
