Crack Filling

CRACK FILLING is the process of placing an adhesive sealant into cracks on the pavement surface, preventing the infiltration of moisture and non-compressible materials into the pavement. It is a cost effective pavement preservation treatment that can slow pavement’s deterioration and extend pavement life three to five years.

FAQs

Why and how do you fill asphalt cracks?

If cracks are not filled, rain and moisture will flow through the pavement and erode the base materials, resulting in potholes and pavement failure. Filling cracks with crack filler helps keep rain and moisture out of the pavement, preventing erosion and failure. BRO Sealcoating and Asphalt Maintenance repairs cracks in your driveway or parking lot with acrylic and/or hot asphalt crack filling. Once the cracks are clean, we backfill them with sand and apply the material with a squeegee so that it is flush with the blacktop surface. BRO Sealcoating and Asphalt Maintenance can assist you if you have cracks in your asphalt and require asphalt repair.

What is the lifespan of an asphalt driveway?

An unmaintained asphalt driveway has a 20-year average lifespan. However, with proper asphalt maintenance, you may be able to double the life of your driveway. When compared to paving, seal coating and crack repair cost pennies on the dollar. A small investment now can extend the life of your driveway by years.

Is it possible to extend the life of asphalt by sealing it?

Yes, regular maintenance and seal coating will greatly increase the lifespan of your driveway. Seal coating shields the asphalt binder from potentially damaging elements such as moisture, UV rays, and chemicals. Seal coating will both protect and beautify your asphalt.
