What Is Pavement Restore™ and How It Extends Asphalt Life
Quick Answer
- Pavement Restore™ is a full surface asphalt renewal system that repairs and rejuvenates worn pavement.
- It fills micro cracking, restores flexibility, and creates a water resistant surface.
- Pavement Restore™ is often used to delay repaving for years at a fraction of the cost.
- It is ideal for asphalt that is structurally sound but showing surface deterioration.
When asphalt starts to look worn, many property owners assume repaving is the only option. In reality, most pavement failures begin at the surface and can be addressed without full replacement. Pavement Restore™ is designed to extend asphalt life by restoring the surface before structural failure occurs.

What Pavement Restore™ Is
Pavement Restore™ is not a cosmetic coating. It is a surface renewal process that physically repairs the top layer of asphalt. The system penetrates and rebinds the pavement surface, restoring flexibility and sealing fine cracks that allow water intrusion.
Unlike traditional sealcoating, which primarily protects the surface, Pavement Restore™ improves the condition of the asphalt itself.
How Pavement Restore™ Works
Asphalt deteriorates as oils evaporate and the surface oxidizes. Pavement Restore™ replenishes and stabilizes the surface while creating a tighter, water resistant layer.
The result is asphalt that looks and performs closer to new pavement.
The process also improves bonding for future maintenance applications, making ongoing upkeep more effective.
When Pavement Restore™ Is the Right Choice
Pavement Restore™ is best used when asphalt is structurally sound but showing surface level deterioration. This includes oxidation, widespread hairline cracking, and rough texture.
- Faded, gray asphalt
- Fine surface cracking
- Dry or brittle pavement
- High traffic wear without base failure
These conditions often indicate that the pavement can be restored rather than replaced.
Pavement Restore™ vs Sealcoating
Sealcoating protects asphalt by sealing the surface, but it does not repair underlying deterioration. Pavement Restore™ goes further by addressing surface damage and restoring flexibility.
In many cases, Pavement Restore™ is used first, followed by TruBlack® Sealcoating to lock in protection and extend results.
Pavement Restore™ vs Repaving
Repaving removes and replaces asphalt, making it the most expensive pavement solution. Pavement Restore™ avoids this cost by preserving existing pavement that is still structurally viable.
In many commercial settings, Pavement Restore™ can cost a fraction of repaving while extending pavement life for years.
Choosing restoration over replacement reduces downtime and capital expense.
