Asphalt Overlay in Manteca, CA

Manteca'S Asphalt Overlay Experts

Asphalt Overlay / Pavement Overlay

As Manteca's highest-rated asphalt overlay specialists, we service San Joaquin County, Pleasanton, Livermore, Vacaville, Vallejo, Fairfield, Chowchilla, Patterson, Valley Springs, Redwood City, and Sonora, California. Our experience with asphalt overlays is extensive. An asphalt overlay is a process in which an existing worn asphalt surface is paved over with a new layer of hot-mix asphalt material and applied by an asphalt paving machine. Between the old and new layer of asphalt, a glue-like binder called tack or SS-1h is applied and fuses the two layers together.

37 years ago, the best way to fix a failing asphalt parking lot was to perform an expensive asphalt removal and replacement treatment, or to install upwards of 4" of asphalt over the existing damaged surface. Both of these options were very costly, and we're now finding that it's rarely necessary.

Although an overlay is not a permanent fix for the cracking that is occurring in your asphalt, it is a great way to bring that fresh paved look back to your parking lot, and for a fraction of the cost of the remove & replace option.


This approach of repair follows the same trends as the thin overlays being performed on streets and roads across Manteca. Asphalt overlays are both the most effective and economical approach to repairing your asphalt today. The reason for this is that asphalt overlays will give your parking lot that "brand new look" while utilizing most of your existing asphalt surface below.

When Is an Overlay the Right Choice?

Asphalt overlay is ideal when:


  • The existing pavement has surface-level cracking or minor potholes
  • There’s fading or wear from sun exposure and traffic
  • The pavement base is still strong and stable
  • You want to extend the life of your asphalt without major reconstruction


If your pavement has severe structural damage, we may recommend removing and replacing the asphalt instead. Our experts can evaluate your surface and provide honest, professional advice.

Fabric Overlays & Petromat Overlays

Two terms meaning the same thing

A petromat overlay is very similar to an asphalt overlay. The main difference is between the old asphalt and the new asphalt, we include the installation of a nonwoven petroleum fabric that looks like a black cloth. This cloth is installed via a machine that pulls the material tightly and glues it to the tack emulsion on the existing surface.

The reason to consider a petromat overlay vs. a standard asphalt overlay is that the petromat fabric helps create a water barrier between your old asphalt and the new asphalt installed, as well as retarding crack reflection. That is, it slows the rate at which the old cracks will return to the surface.


Fabric overlays are something we recommend to our customers when their parking lot has small, yet widespread, hairline cracking throughout the surface, yet the sub-grade is still in relatively good shape.

By utilizing a petromat fabric overlay, you can effectively extend the life of your parking lots or roads by as much as fifteen years.

This longevity is achievable with a basic maintenance plan that includes sealcoating & asphalt crack repair every 2 years, based on usage and traffic weights. The last alternative to a petromat overlay is to completely remove and replace your asphalt, which is considerably more expensive.
