    New infrared asphalt restoration technologies, such as the Patriot system, are more reliable than before and offer cost benefits over time-consuming, cut-and-fill asphalt repairs. This technology offers benefits over conventional repairs which leave seams that can allow water penetration. Where thes eams are not watertight, the repaired, filled-in portion can fail within a year or so, however infrared technology blends the new asphalt with the old by heating an area 152-203mm beyond the perimeter of the rep
