Crack Sealing

What Is Crack Sealing?

 Crack sealing is the process of creating a flexible, waterproof seal, in and over a crack or joint to stop water and road debris from entering the crack and causing further damage.

 With temperature changes, pavement expands and contracts. Sealing the cracks with flexible rubberized Asphalt that bond to the crack walls and moves with the pavement, water incursion may be prevented.

In the pavement management system, sealing of cracks may prevent pavement deterioration by reducing water penetration into underlying base and sub-base. Sealing cracks and joints in pavements extends the life of the surface and the pavement.

Crack sealing stands out as an economical maintenance technique. The benefits are realized in three to five years as the pavement has not deteriorated.

Crack sealing is the most cost-effective method over time compared to other pavement maintenance techniques.

Crack sealing may be more costly for the owner in the short term and, in the long term it may add value to a property because of its longevity. Depending on the nature of the crack, filling cracks can only do so much and may only last one or two seasons.

However, crack sealing is considered a permanent treatment that may last up to 8 years, or more. In areas where there are drastic temperature changes from season to season, crack filling is truly the only option This is because it provides a permanent, flexible solution to compensate for this activity from season to season.

The main purpose of crack sealing in asphalt or concrete is to protect your pavement from premature failure. Contact us for more information at 8602743978
