The Right Care for a Longer Life
Give your pavements the care they deserve with our preservation services, designed to protect your investment, enhance durability, and maintain safety. From seal coating to crack sealing, we provide the right solutions to extend the lifespan of your asphalt surfaces, saving you time and money down the road.
Seal Coating
Seal coating is a cost-effective solution for preserving your asphalt surfaces. Applying a protective layer shields your pavement from potential damage caused by the elements. This method not only extends the life of your asphalt but also refreshes its appearance, significantly boosting your property’s value.
The protective layer from seal coating serves as a powerful barrier against dirt, debris, sunlight, water, and chemicals that can harm your asphalt. Not to mention, it also gives your pavement a fresh, new look that enhances its curb appeal. Whether you’re a homeowner or business owner, seal coating is a smart investment that offers an array of long-term benefits.
Regular seal coating can even save you money in the long run by preventing expensive repairs or replacements. For the best results, we recommend seal coating every 3-5 years. Maintaining your asphalt regularly helps keep it durable and visually appealing for years to come. If you’re looking for a reliable team, Pitlik & Wick is here and ready to help.
Crack Sealing
Crack sealing is a simple step with powerful results for your asphalt surfaces. By filling even seemingly minor cracks, you proactively prevent small issues from becoming major problems. What starts as a surface imperfection can rapidly turn into significant structural damage if ignored.
Preventing water from infiltrating the pavement is key, as it can lead to heaving, additional cracking, and even potholes. To keep your asphalt in top condition, routine crack sealing is critical. This step should be performed every 3-5 years on all types of asphalt surfaces—residential, commercial, and recreational.
Don’t wait for minor cracks to become major issues. Let Pitlik & Wick help you maintain your asphalt surfaces and reduce the risks of expensive fixes in the future. Our team of seasoned experts is ready to assess your surfaces and implement effective solutions. Reach out now to take the first step toward preserving your asphalt.
Flex Patch
Flex Patch is a cutting-edge asphalt repair solution made to tackle dipped cracks in roadways, creating a smoother ride for everyone. Flex Patch consists of a lasting blend of polymer rubber, polyester fibers, and asphalt-injected aggregate. The result? A flexible and durable material that effectively levels and seals problematic cracks.
Both its durability and versatility are unparalleled, with a unique composition that withstands temperature changes and road movement—without cracking. Flex Patch is suitable for a wide range of asphalt surfaces and has the power to transform driveways and highways to their former glory.
For maximum effectiveness, Flex Patch works best when applied in combination with other asphalt preservation techniques. Pairing it with chip sealing or an asphalt overlay repairs existing damage and provides an additional protective layer. With our Flex Patch services, you’ll be investing in a smoother, safer, and more durable surface.
Chip Sealing
Chip sealing is a practical and efficient mode of maintaining asphalt surfaces. A two-step process, chip sealing involves spraying a layer of asphalt emulsion onto the existing road surface and applying a fine rock aggregate directly on top of the emulsion. When applied over existing asphalt, chip sealing unlocks multiple benefits.
This process protects asphalt against oxidation, preserving its flexibility and durability while preventing brittleness. Chip sealing also stops raveling by preventing aggregate loss and establishes a strong, waterproof barrier, shielding the pavement from the damaging effects of water. Plus, it improves the overall driving experience by creating a superior-smooth surface.
These combined benefits significantly improve current road conditions and reduce the risk of future damage, making chip sealing an invaluable technique for the long haul. We recommend a chip seal surface for town and county roads and state highways to support light-to-heavy flows of traffic.

Shouldering
Shouldering is a stronghold solution in pavement preservation, reinforcing the critical edges of roadways. This technique provides unmatched pavement strength to any asphalt surface by securing its borders, minimizing edge cracking, and maximizing driver safety. While often overlooked, these crucial perimeters combat erosion, washouts, and daily wear and tear.
Beyond functionality, we recognize that different projects may require unique aesthetic touches. That’s why we offer a variety of materials to dress up your asphalt, including gravel, red granite, and various stone products. These diverse options allow you to customize the appearance of your shoulders while keeping their structure stronger than ever.
Together, utilizing our top-of-the-line materials and techniques, we can create more resilient roadways. Our team of experts is dedicated to delivering shouldering solutions that build on the durability and even design of your asphalt surfaces. Discover the difference our expertise can make.
Striping
Striping is the cornerstone of a well-organized and efficient parking space. At Pitlik & Wick, we have mastered striping and provide services for parking lots of all sizes, from compact spaces to expansive commercial zones. We are ready to help you lay out and adjust your lot to maximize parking space and improve traffic flow.
Our striping solutions go far beyond basic line painting, with a wide range of offerings to maximize your parking lot’s potential. We use diagonal striping and staggered parking spaces to increase capacity within existing areas. Streamlining the flow of traffic, we also create directional markings and one-way traffic systems.
Safety remains our top priority, so we incorporate well-defined zones for vehicles and pedestrians alike. Every Pitlik & Wick layout includes clearly marked crosswalks and walkways, guaranteeing full ADA compliance. We don’t overlook aesthetic appeal either. Using high-quality materials, we paint vibrant lines that add to your lot’s appearance and withstand the test of time.
Thermoplastic Snowmobile
Crossings
Thermoplastic snowmobile crossings are a complete solution designed to protect asphalt surfaces from the wear and tear caused by snowmobile traffic. These durable, high-performance markings are applied to designated crossing areas, forming a protective layer to combat the harsh winter season.
The material’s durability offers long-lasting protection for asphalt surfaces, extending their lifespan and lessening maintenance costs over time. These crossings also promote safety for all users—on the trail or the road. The coating’s skid resistance and high visibility provide safe crossing areas for snowmobilers and even alert motorists to potential snowmobile traffic.
