How often should I replace a tarred pavement?

A tarred area should be replaced every 15-20 years. Obviously, it depends on the condition of the tarred area and how often any vehicles drive on the tar. It’s very easy to tell if tar should be replaced. The colour of the tar will have faded and you’ll notice some oil stains. Old tar is often cracked and crumbly too. A tarred area with too many potholes should probably be replaced too.

Should I repair a tarred area or completely re-pave it?

Sometimes it’s more cost-effective to repair a tarred area by targeting specific problems. If the tar is in relatively good condition, it will be worth it to repair the area and wait a few years before completely re-paving. Do not make the mistake of trying to repair the tar too often. It’s usually the same areas that need repairing each time. After 20 years, completely re-paving the area is usually the better choice.

What are common problems that require tar repairs?

-Potholes in the tar -Cracked/ crumbly tar -Uneven tarred area -Faded tar -Oil/ chemical stains -Lack of water resistance

Can I repair tar with patchwork?

Tarred areas can be repaired with patchwork. Sometimes it’s not worth it to try and re-pave the whole area, especially if it’s mostly in good condition. Patchwork allows you to save some money while still getting the job done. However, it’s a good idea to hire a tarring contractor in Parow to do any kind of patchwork. They will be able to blend the patch with the existing tar. This will make the overall job look better and make the experience of driving on the tar smoother.

Is it possible to repair any tarred area?

Some tarred areas are easier to repair than others. It depends on the condition of the tar and how large the area is. Most tarred areas can be repaired, especially if the land is still a solid foundation. However, there are situations when the entire area will need to be re-paved after the existing tar has been removed. Tarring contractors in Parow will be able to tell you if the tarred area is reparable or not.

What can I use to repair cracks or potholes?

If the cracks are really thin, they can be repaired with patchwork and a sealcoating solution. This makes the tarred area water resistant and prevents anything from seeping into the cracks. However, you need to make sure that weeds or vehicles won’t cause the tar to crack again. Weed/ moss killer is often used for this purpose. Potholes are usually repaired with major patchwork. A specific area of the tar will be re-paved. Sometimes potholes are caused by rain. For this reason, it’s important to make sure that seal-coating is applied once the patch work is complete.
