Crack Sealing is an Integral Component of an Effective Pavement Preservation Program.

 A scheduled program of pavement maintenance that includes sealcoating  and crack filling will more than double the life cycle of your asphalt  pavement and provide maximum curb appeal. Sealcoating and crack filling  is a fraction of the cost of repairing or replacing asphalt pavement.  The key to effective crack filling and sealing is to repair and fill the  cracks while they are small, as crack filling inhibits crack growth and  keeps new cracks from forming.

Crack Sealing Provides Superior Protection Against Moisture Intrusion – The Leading Cause of Pavement Failure.

 Left unfilled, cracks will allow rain and moisture to flow through  pavement and erode base materials ultimately resulting in potholes and  pavement failure. Filling cracks with crack filler helps prevent rain  and moisture from flowing through the pavement and causing erosion or  failure. By stopping the entrance of water, the rate of deterioration of  the pavement is significantly slowed. Crack sealing also prevents the  loss of aggregate from the edges of the crack.

 Hot pour cracking involves heated up blocks of rubberized asphalt in a specially designed oil-jacketed melter and then applying the heated material to cracks in roads and parking  lots. Hot pour crack filling and sealing is generally done on roads and  highways and in many cases, on parking lots. Hot pour offers the  advantage of quick set times (10 minutes or less). Once the hot pour  material cools you can drive on it.
