ACT Product and Service Offering
Sealer: We use the highest quality commercial grade sealer on the market today: GemSeal®, with TARMAX R-100 latex modifier additive. This combination creates a tough protective skin over the asphalt that can double the life of your asphalt when applied with a scheduled maintenance program, about every 2 or 3 years depending upon traffic. GemSeal® is a 100% coal tar emulsion pavement sealer that resists oxidation from the sun, rain, snow, gas, oils, salt, etc.
Sealer Application Process: We provide the best workmanship possible by applying the sealer to your asphalt by hand, using specialized 3 and 4 foot professional sealcoat brushes. This process is far superior to the spray-on techniques used by many other companies.
ACT Crack Repair: We use the highest quality crack repair method possible. ACT routes out all cracks between 1/8" - 3/8”. The crack is routed out to ½” wide, this is done in order to have a clean uniform crack for proper adhesion and to ensure there is enough material to seal and protect the crack through the long cold winters, especially through the freeze/thaw cycle. We then use a premium hot rubber material that we apply with a 3"crack banding applicator. This is the same method that is used on our state highways.
Striping: We use a Graco airless Line Lazer that lays the sharpest lines possible. The material used is a commercial grade, fast drying, bright, high traffic paint.
Patching: We cut out and remove the damaged area, inspect the base, repair as necessary, compact base ready for hot mix asphalt, lay a minimum of 2 ½’ asphalt, and compact flush with the surrounding existing areas of the patch.
