Crack Sealing

What This Service Involves

Unsealed cracks let our region's heavy rainfall reach the base, accelerating potholes and pavement failure. We rout and clean cracks, then fill them with hot-applied rubberized sealant that flexes through temperature swings. Proper cleaning and drying before sealing is what makes the bond last rather than pop out in a season. Sealing is one of the most cost-effective pavement preservation tools an agency can budget for. Treated early, a crack-sealed road defers far more expensive overlay and reconstruction work.

Benefits

Water intrusion blocked before base damage; flexible sealant that survives temperature swings; strong bond from proper crack prep; low-cost pavement preservation; deferred overlay and reconstruction costs

Our Process

1) Survey and map cracks suitable for sealing; 2) Rout and clean cracks to a dry, sound edge; 3) Apply hot rubberized sealant; 4) Squeegee flush and allow traffic-ready cure

What Affects the Cost

Linear footage of cracking; routing requirements before sealing; sealant type and quantity; lane closure and traffic control; overall pavement condition and candidacy

Best Time of Year

Dry summer and early-fall conditions are essential so cracks are clean and dry enough for the sealant to bond.
