Get Your Free EstimateSlurry Coating means putting a thin, protective layer over asphalt pavement that is already there. This Slurry Coating layer is made of asphalt emulsion, finely graded aggregate, and chemical additives. The purpose of Slurry Coating is to seal small cracks, make the surface friction better, and bring back the original dark color of the pavement. This stops more damage from the sun and water in Hawthorne, CA.
When your asphalt in Hawthorne shows signs of aging, like fading, small cracks, or raveling, Slurry Coating is a good solution that does not cost too much. Alpha Asphalt Hawthorne prepares the surface first by cleaning off debris, oil spots, and any vegetation. Then, the Slurry Coating mixture is spread evenly to make a new wear surface. This Slurry Coating process causes less disruption and costs less than replacing the entire asphalt pavement. We provide Slurry Coating services for homes and businesses in Hawthorne.
Hawthorne's climate has warm, dry summers and sometimes winter rains. This weather can make asphalt wear out faster. UV radiation from the sun causes oxidation, which makes the asphalt brittle and lose its color. Water from rain gets into cracks and makes them bigger. Slurry Coating puts a barrier against these elements. This slows down the aging process that is specific to our local Hawthorne weather patterns.
Property owners in Hawthorne often worry about how long their driveways and parking lots will last and how they look. Slurry Coating helps with these concerns by making the pavement look fresh and uniform. It also makes the pavement last longer. Slurry Coating improves curb appeal and can increase property value in Hawthorne.
After the Slurry Coating is put down, it needs time to cure. This usually takes 24 to 48 hours before vehicles can drive on it again. This time allows the water to evaporate and the emulsion to set properly. Proper curing makes sure the Slurry Coating is durable and works well for properties in Hawthorne. For Hawthorne homes, Alpha Asphalt Hawthorne is here for all your Slurry Coating needs.
Hawthorne's sunny climate and the rain showers we get here create specific problems for asphalt surfaces. The sun's UV rays constantly hit the asphalt. This breaks down the asphalt binder, which makes the asphalt brittle and gray. This can cause surface raveling and small cracks to start showing up in the asphalt.
When these small cracks appear, rainwater can get into the asphalt base. This water can weaken the sub-base, and that leads to bigger damage like potholes and alligator cracking in Hawthorne. Fixing these problems early with Slurry Coating prevents expensive repairs later on. This is especially true with the soil here in Hawthorne, which can get unstable when it is very wet.
