What is infrared?  It is a process in which an infrared machine uses a flameless direct heat source that can reach temperatures of over 500 degrees in order to reheat existing asphalt. By heating up the existing asphalt it allows the fusing of old and new pavements together, creating a seamless pavement. If one area of the driveway is in need of replacement, while the other area is in great shape, infrared can make the old and new pavement seem continuous.

Because this method fuses old and new pavements together, there is no longer a seam that water can seep through in between the pavements. And because there are no joints, it eliminates minor maintenance needs such as crack filling.

When adding onto existing driveways, infrared is used to have the appearance of one continuous pavement area. This is not only better functionality, but aesthetically pleasing.

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.
