"We love the looks of it…haven’t driven on it yet.  We hate to get it dirty😆.

All the workers were so pleasant and friendly.  Everyone was so respectful of our property and our neighbors’.  They did a great clean up job also. Very good experience.  I did videos because my son and grandson are diesel mechanics and anything involving big equipment interests them.  

Thank you for the excellent work and your promptness in keeping in touch with us throughout the whole process."


— Nancy and Lawrence Malone

"We were so pleased with the wonderful workmanship of the whole crew-- and had a fun time remembering with the 'foreman' that when the crew was here in 2011 to do the initial paving of our driveway, that was the day there was an earthquake in Virginia that was felt out here! 😉

THANKS so much for helping coordinate things!! The new sections for 'pull-off parking' are just wonderful!"

One of the most common ways of repairing asphalt pavements is to use asphalt patching. It’s a quick and easy method of repairing any asphalt surface, particularly if it’s been damaged by vandals. However, as with all repair work, asphalt patching can leave behind potentially compromising marks that can be hard to remove. That’s why it’s especially important to apply the right type of material, and to use the right tools, to ensure the greatest success.

Before you can patch your asphalt, it must be thoroughly cleaned. This means getting out all the grit and grime that can be seen on the surface. If possible, you should choose a high-pressure water jetting system to wash the asphalt down. If you’re not in a position to do this yourself, call in a reputable company. They’ll likely require a large area of land to work on, so make sure yours is big enough. The cost of this service will depend on the size of the repair job and the frequency of use.

Once your asphalt has been washed down, then you can begin patching. The first tool you will need when doing this is a sharp blade. You should use something that will cut through the asphalt without too much difficulty. Asphalt patching can be quite messy, so you want to make sure you are wearing suitable footwear when working on the asphalt. The safest choice might be to wear work boots.

Another tool you will want to have handy is a paint sprayer. This is especially handy if you don’t want to damage or crack in the asphalt that you are patching. A paint sprayer is also useful in making sure you use the right material. If you have a piece of metal fencing that is exposed to the elements, you can use the sprayer to apply the paint.

After you have everything you need, you will want to start your job. One way to make sure the asphalt patch you are applying is the correct shape is to lay it out on the ground and look at it from different angles. You can also use a spirit level to ensure the height and distance between the asphalt patch and the surrounding area is correct. When you are happy with the height and distance, apply the asphalt. When the asphalt is dry, you can begin working on the next section of asphalt.

There are many ways that you can complete these tasks, but the most commonly used method involves using heavy-duty sponges that are driven onto the asphalt. The sponges will then roll off to the side as the area of the asphalt to be patched is being patched. Make sure you wear suitable safety equipment when doing this.

Once the material has been patched, you will need to cover up the area that was not patched. One way to do this is to use pavement paint. Pavement paint can provide a durable, long-lasting covering for small areas of sidewalk or driveway. If you have a lot of extra space, you can use a large sheet of asphalt that is left unadorned. Just make sure to use caution in order not to damage your sidewalks and driveways.

Asphalt patching can be a big job. It can also be a messy process, especially if there are several layers to patch. If you are going to hire someone to patch your driveway, it is important that they know how to properly patch an asphalt surface. This can make the job go much more smoothly.

Before hiring a contractor to do asphalt patching for you, make sure he or she has the proper equipment. Some of the most important tools he or she will need to include: a spade, steel wool and an angle grinder. A spade will be used to dig up the affected area, followed by steel wool to remove the ground material. After the material has been removed, the spade is used to pave the newly patched area. A grinder is used to smooth out the rough edges between the different layers of asphalt. Most importantly, the crew will need an angle grinder to ensure a neat, even finish.

Before hiring someone to do asphalt patching for you, make sure he or she is licensed and that he or she uses the proper materials and techniques. Ask for before and after photos of previous jobs that he or she has done. You can even ask for references so you can check out the work history of the contractor. You can also ask neighbors and friends and family members who have had the same job done before.

There are many things to consider when hiring contractors for asphalt patching. First and foremost, make sure you get the right person. Don’t choose your friend just because he or she is nearby or has good references. Also, you want someone who will be honest and punctual so there will be no problem if something gets done on time. Finally, choose a contractor who offers a reasonable price for quality work.

Asphalt Patching in Bethel Park, PA

About Bethel Park, PA

Bethel Park (officially the Municipality of Bethel Park) is a borough with home rule status in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a suburb within the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, located approximately 7 miles (11 km) southwest of Pittsburgh. The population was 33,577 as of the 2020 census.

The area that is now Bethel Park was originally settled around 1800 and was established as Bethel Township in 1886. It was named after Bethel Presbyterian Church, which in turn was named after the ancient Israelite sanctuary of Bethel. Bethel Park was incorporated as a borough on March 17, 1949, and became a home rule municipality in 1978.

The first armored car robbery in the U.S. occurred on March 11, 1927, when a Brinks truck, heading towards the Coverdale Mine about a mile away was attacked. Paul Jaworski and Flatheads gang destroyed the road with dynamite to steal a mining payroll.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 11.7 square miles (30 km), all land. Its average elevation is 1,197 feet (365 m) above sea level. Bethel Park lies at the margin between the Pittsburgh Low Plateau and Waynesburg Hills Sections of the Allegheny Plateau physiographic province. The area is characterized as a maturely dissected region where the ephemeral minor tributaries converge into the tributaries of principal streams.

The highest point in Bethel Park is Rocky Ridge, in the southwestern portion of the borough, 1,370 feet (420 m), and the lowest point is at the intersection of the Piney Fork and Alsip Run creeks, 980 feet (300 m), in the southeast corner.

Bethel Park has seven borders, including Castle Shannon to the north, Whitehall to the north-northeast, Baldwin to the northeast, South Park to the east and southeast, Peters Township in Washington County to the south, Upper St. Clair to the west, and Mt. Lebanon to the north-northwest.

The exposed rocks in Bethel Park are mostly composed of sandstone, limestone, shale, and a few coal layers (Redstone, Waynesburg, Washington, etc.). The ages of the exposed rocks bracket the late Pennsylvanian epoch (Gzhelian age; approximately 303 million years ago) near the lowest elevations, and Early Permian period (Asselian age; approximately 297 million years ago) near the highest parts of the southern part of Bethel Park (e.g. Rocky Ridge). These sedimentary rocks were deposited as the sea level rose and fell along an ancient coastline (with the region alternating between delta, shallow lake, and shallow sea), and finally being uplifted with the formation of the Appalachian Mountains.

Bethel Park is underlain by the Pennsylvania-age Monongahela Formation. The Monongahela Formation consists of the Uniontown member and the underlying Pittsburgh member, and the base is the Pittsburgh coal seam. Much of southern Allegheny County is undermined, and the PADEP indicates that all of Bethel Park was undermined.

A portion of the area is underlain by the Pittsburgh Terminal No. 8 Mine (Cortis and others, 1975), which was commonly known as the "H" Mine and the Coverdale Mine. The mine opened around 1920. The historic operations of the Coverdale Mine are apparent on a Bridgeville 7.5-minute topographic map. A "Mine Dump" is shown adjacent to the Montour Railroad tracks and South Park Road. Coal was mined through vertical shafts accessing inclined slopes following the dip of the Pittsburgh coal seam. Mine voids in the inclined slope resulted from the practice of room and pillar mining during the early 20th century. The Coverdale Mine is closed and largely unflooded.

At the 2020 census there were 33,556 people, 13,362 households, and 9,540 families living in the Municipality. The population density was 2,869.8 inhabitants per square mile (1,108.0/km). There were 13,871 housing units at an average density of 1,186.3 per square mile (458.0/km2). The racial makeup of the borough was 97.10% White, 1.02% African American, 0.03% Native American, 1.11% Asian, 0.03% Pacific Islander, 0.13% from other races, and 0.58% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 0.49%.

There were 13,362 households, 30.3% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 62.0% were married couples living together, 7.2% had a female householder with no husband present, and 28.6% were non-families. 26.1% of households were made up of individuals, and 12.0% were one person aged 65 or older. The average household size was 2.48 and the average family size was 3.01.

The age distribution was 23.7% under the age of 18, 5.0% from 18 to 24, 26.8% from 25 to 44, 26.5% from 45 to 64, and 18.1% 65 or older. The median age was 42 years. For every 100 females there were 91.9 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 87.7 males.

The median household income was $53,791 and the median family income was $64,390. Males had a median income of $47,876 versus $32,351 for females. The per capita income for the borough was $25,867. About 2.5% of families and 3.7% of the population were below the poverty line, including 4.1% of those under age 18 and 3.8% of those age 65 or over.

The Municipality's home rule status provides Bethel Park with greater powers of governance than the default form of borough government. It is divided into nine wards of approximately equal population, each electing one member of the Bethel Park Municipal Council, and all together electing the mayor at large. Both the mayor and the council member serve four-year terms. Each council member is required to reside in the ward that they represent.

The completion of the Pittsburgh Railways Interurbans in the early 1900s opened up Bethel Park to accelerated growth and development, making the area an early example of a streetcar suburb. While most of the Pittsburgh area's passenger rail and streetcar services were discontinued in the 1950s and 1960s and further growth was fueled by automobiles, the trolley lines through Bethel Park were kept in service and upgraded to modern light rail standards in the 1980s. All three of Port Authority of Allegheny County's light rail lines run through Bethel Park, with the Blue and Red lines terminating at South Hills Village, and the Silver Line passing through the central business district to its terminus in Library. Park-and-ride lots at South Hills Village, West Library, Lytle, and Washington Junction provide local commuters with an easy trip to Pittsburgh.

Pennsylvania Route 88 and U.S. Route 19 run through Bethel Park, with much of the area's busy commercial developments along the two corridors. The Yellow and Orange Belts of the Allegheny County belt system serve the borough, with the Orange Belt terminating in the southeast corner near the border with South Park. Interstate 79 and the Mon-Fayette Expressway do not enter Bethel Park but are both within a 15-minute drive from the borough. The cancelled South Hills Expressway was planned to be constructed along the Route 88 corridor.[citation needed]

In addition to light rail service, Port Authority's 36 Banksville and Mid Mon Valley Transit Authority's Commuter A routes provide bus service through the commercial areas of the borough.
