Pavement maintenance is an essential part of keeping roads safe and usable. Adequately maintained asphalt pavement and driveway pavement can last for years, saving property owners money. As anyone who has ever been down a poorly maintained road knows, properly maintained asphalt and pavement markers help drivers have an enjoyable ride.
Maintaining pavement is no easy task; it requires a combination of regular inspections, preventive repairs, and proactive treatments to keep the pavement in optimal condition. Let’s look at some of the most essential aspects of pavement maintenance.
Regular Pavement Inspections
Regular pavement inspections are necessary to identify any areas of distress or damage on the roadway before they worsen. Conduct pavement inspections at least once every two years, but more frequent examinations may be necessary depending on the age and status of the roadway. During these inspections, your pavement contractor will inspect the pavement markers and conditions to assess your project needs.
Preventive Pavement Repairs
Once your inspector has identified potential problems, complete preventive pavement repairs as soon as possible to minimize further damage or deterioration. Repairs may include crack sealing, asphalt patching, pothole repair, joint sealing, and sealcoating to prevent water from seeping into the pavement structure. These types of preventive maintenance extend the life of your pavement and help avoid costly emergency repairs down the road.
Proactive Pavement Treatments
Regular preventive treatments are also necessary to maintain the integrity of your pavement over time. These treatments include updating pavement markers, sealcoating, and crack filling to protect against further damage caused by weather or traffic. In addition, regular pavement sweeping helps remove debris from your parking lots and driveways, which can cause additional damage if left unchecked.
Pavement Maintenance Importance
Maintaining your pavement markers and overall condition is essential for extending its life span and avoiding costly emergency repairs in the future. Regular pavement inspections are vital for identifying potential problems early so that preventive maintenance happens sooner than later before things worsen.
Proactive treatments such as sealcoating and crack filling also help protect against further wear and tear caused by weather or traffic over time. By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your pavement will stay in excellent shape year after year!
