Is it better to cut asphalt wet or dry?

• <div><p>Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to repair or patch asphalt?

• <div><p>Preparation and repair might be completed within a few hours to a day, depending on the severity of the damage and the size of the area.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for asphalt to dry?

• <div><p>On average, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/asphalt-curing-time.htm">asphalt dries within 24 to 72 hours</a>, meaning it&rsquo;s solid enough for light traffic&mdash;walking and careful driving. Full curing&mdash;when asphalt reaches peak strength&mdash;can take anywhere from three months to a year. During that time, heavy loads and sharp objects can leave marks. Weather, asphalt mix, and thickness all affect how quickly it dries and cures. If you want your asphalt to last, treat it gently until it&rsquo;s fully cured. For the best results, check with a professional asphalt contractor for their advice.</p></div>

Q: How much does asphalt repair cost?

• <div><p>Repair costs range from $150 to $1,000, depending on the damage size and repair method.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain my asphalt driveway?

• <div><p>Regular maintenance will help you avoid costly repairs and early replacement. Clean the driveway surface with a stiff brush and water at least twice yearly, and remove any weeds that try to take root. Additionally, every two to five years, apply a sealcoat&mdash;this protects the driveway against damaging UV rays and keeps it looking like new. </p></div>

I have had Terry's repair do multiple jobs for me. From tune ups, to front end alignments, to safety checks. The whole crew are always thorough, honest, and fair. They even will suggest when a repair is not worth doing in their opinion. Would give them my highest recommendation.
