Crack Sealing
Prevent small cracks from becoming big problems with our crack sealing services.
Don’t Leave Asphalt Cracks Unattended
Cracks in parking lots are not unusual. Unfortunately, neither is the eventual deterioration of the surface if those cracks are left unattended. When cracks in asphalt are left unattended it is typical for the cracks to begin expanding at a rapid rate.

Asphalt Cracking
Cracks that appear in properly constructed asphalt pavements are usually due to repeated temperature fluctuations that occur with the change of the seasons. One of the great strengths of asphalt pavement is that it can expand and contract with temperature changes without incurring damage.
As asphalt ages, however, the liquid asphalt binding the aggregate together begins to dry out and lose flexibility. This is the most common cause of cracks and a natural part of the life of any asphalt pavement. Once a few small cracks begin to form in old asphalt it is common for the cracks to grow at a quicker rate because it is open for rain and ice to expand inside the asphalt. That is why it important to speak with crack sealing professionals as soon as there are any signs of cracks beginning to form.
Structural Failures & Diagnosis
Cracks can also form due to structural failure or other problems resulting from improper installation of the pavement. These types of cracks can be avoided, but only through proper asphalt pavement installation from the beginning. If dealt with quickly and effectively, however, even these types of cracks can be managed to help delay a total asphalt replacement for years.
Each surface is unique based on a variety of factors such as how it was installed, the weather in the area, and the amount of traffic that uses the surface. This makes it important to personalize the diagnosis for each individual project. First we figure out if the crack was caused by structural failure when it was originally installed, if it was weather, or physical use that caused the crack. Once we diagnose the cause of the crack, we develop a strategy for sealing the crack and preventing future cracks.
