crack sealing

Water is one of the worst things for asphalt cracks, once it trickles into the seams, it can erode the foundation or cause it to freeze. Because of this, the asphalt can heave and become damaged. 

Cracks can also accumulate debris, dirt, and start to grow weeds.  Fixing and sealing driveway cracks before they become potholes is the best thing to do. It also saves you money by extending your asphalt's life. 

There are many reasons why cracks form and almost seem to appear overnight!  Cracks can be caused by some of these variables below.

-Poor foundation under the asphalt.

-Having too thin of a layer of asphalt. 

-Un-properly blended asphalt. 

-Tree roots.

-Water under the asphalt freezing and thawing.

-Expanding and contracting of asphalt when it freezes and thaws. 

-Extreme heavy vehicles. 

Crack sealing is a process of filling cracks in asphalt with a hot rubberized sealer.  The crack sealer is heated and applied at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, to the sides, top, and bottom of the crack to create an watertight seal.
