What is the Difference between Asphalt and Pavement?
Asphalt and pavement are related terms often used interchangeably, but they refer to different components of a road or driveway.
Generally, Asphalt refers to the material used to construct roads, driveways, and other paved surfaces. It is a mixture of aggregate stone and a binder, typically bitumen or asphalt cement, which holds the aggregate together. Asphalt is commonly applied in layers and compacted to create a smooth, durable surface.
Therefore, Pavement, on the other hand, is the finished surface or structure that is created using asphalt or other materials. It encompasses the entire constructed surface, including the base layers, subbase, and surface layers. Pavement can be made from various materials, such as asphalt, concrete, gravel, or even interlocking pavers, depending on the specific requirements and conditions of the project.
In summary, asphalt is the specific material used in pavement construction, while pavement refers to the entire constructed surface, which may be made of asphalt or other materials.
Benefits of Asphalt Sealcoating Services:
Protection from Environmental Elements:
Sealcoating creates a protective barrier on the surface of the asphalt, shielding it from damaging effects of UV rays, water penetration, oil spills, and other substances. Consequently, this protection helps to prevent cracks, potholes, and deterioration caused by exposure to the elements, ultimately extending the lifespan of the asphalt pavement.
Enhanced Appearance:
Furthermore, sealcoating provides a fresh, dark surface that enhances the aesthetic appeal of the asphalt. It gives the pavement a smooth, uniform finish, covering minor imperfections and restoring its original black color. Consequently, this revitalized appearance not only improves the overall look of the property but also contributes to a positive first impression for visitors and customers.
Cost-Effective Maintenance:
Lastly, regular sealcoating is a proactive maintenance measure that helps to minimize the need for costly repairs and replacements. By preventing cracks and other forms of damage, sealcoating helps to maintain the structural integrity of the asphalt, reducing the frequency of repairs and prolonging the lifespan of the pavement. Ultimately, investing in sealcoating can save property owners money by avoiding more extensive and expensive repairs in the long run.
