Crack Sealing in Orlando
Stop small cracks from becoming expensive problems. Hot rubberized crack sealing prevents water damage and extends the life of your asphalt.
What is Crack Sealing?
When it comes to keeping your paved area in good condition, filling cracks promptly is essential to prevent more extensive damage. Water can easily seep through cracks in your asphalt and create expensive repairs if left unaddressed.
Crack sealing stops damage before it worsens, helping you get more life out of your asphalt investment. It's one of the most cost-effective maintenance steps you can take.
Hot crack sealing is a commercial-grade, rubberized DOT-approved material used on roadways, parking lots, and airstrips. Applied at 350 degrees, it creates a flexible, waterproof seal that moves with your pavement.
Benefits of Crack Sealing
Sealing cracks before they spread is key to extending pavement life:
- Prevents Water Damage: Stops water from penetrating beneath the surface where it causes the most harm
- Stops Crack Spreading: Prevents small cracks from growing into alligator cracking
- Avoids Potholes: Water infiltration is the #1 cause of potholes - sealing prevents them
- Extends Pavement Life: Regular crack sealing can add years to your asphalt
- Cost-Effective: Much less expensive than patching or replacement
- Prepares for Sealcoating: Cracks should be sealed before applying sealcoat
When Should Cracks Be Sealed?
All cracks 1/2 inch and larger are recommended to be sealed to prevent further expansion and deterioration. The best time to seal cracks is:
As Soon As Possible
The sooner you seal cracks, the less damage water can cause to the base.
Before Sealcoating
Cracks should be filled before applying sealcoat for best results.
Warm Weather
Best applied when temperatures are above 40°F for proper adhesion.
