Cold asphalt: it can be a puzzling concept for EZ Street newbies. For so long, many of us have considered heating an integral part of the asphalt-laying process. And yet, in spite of this, EZ Street has concocted a cold-mix asphalt suitable for large-scale and DIY projects alike. So, how does it work? Is it really as good as it sounds? For all the answers and more, you’ll have to keep reading…

Coldpatch asphalt versus hot asphalt

Why is cold asphalt so much better than hot asphalt? Because you skip the whole heating process. Cold-patch asphalt repair is a simple three-step process:

  1. Sweep all debris from the patch or pothole you wish to fill
  2. Fill the patch or hole with the cold, pre-mixed asphalt
  3. Compact the asphalt down. It should set almost instantly! 

Because you’re skipping the heating process, cold asphalt becomes the clear choice in terms of time efficiency. Moreover, eliminating the heating process renders heating equipment moot, making cold asphalt the most cost-effective choice, as well.

Cold asphalt is also a win for the environment. Operating at lower temperatures helps to reduce airborne and fume emissions—not to mention your energy bill. Purchase EZ Street Asphalt in bulk and you can store any leftovers for your next project! How long does cold-patch asphalt last? EZ Street Asphalt has a shelf life of 12 months.

Other perks

But wait—there’s more! Because cold asphalt sets so quickly, it’s basically an antidote for traffic congestion. The faster you fix a pothole, the faster traffic can resume regular operations. Eliminating congestion in a shorter turnaround time saves time for all involved. It’s also a whole lot easier on the environment!
