Protect Your Pavement with lCrack Repair by Pro Seal Asphalt Maintenance Inc.
Crack sealing uses specialized rubberized sealant to stop water, debris, and other elements from infiltrating cracks in asphalt. This technique is ideal for addressing cracks caused by the natural expansion and contraction of pavement due to seasonal temperature changes. Prompt sealing prevents further deterioration, ensuring your asphalt remains durable and intact.
How Does Crack Sealing Differ from Filling?
While both are cost-effective asphalt repair methods, they serve different purposes:
Sealing
This maintenance technique uses a rubberized sealant to prevent water infiltration and protect the pavement from further damage. It’s best suited for active cracks caused by movement within the structure.
Filling
This method repairs non-working cracks that don’t expand or contract. It’s typically a shorter-term fix.
The Crack Sealing Process
This pavement maintenance method involves a series of meticulous steps to ensure a durable, long-lasting seal:
- Preparation: We clean the area thoroughly, removing dirt, debris, and moisture to ensure proper adhesion. We use high-powered air blowers or wire brushes to clean the surface.
- Routing (Optional): For active cracks, we use routing machines to widen and deepen the break, creating an even reservoir for the sealant.
- Sealant Heating: The rubberized sealant is heated to the ideal temperature for optimal pliability and adhesion.
- Sealant Application: We fill the gap using precision applicators, slightly overfilling to create a protective band.
- Cooling and Finishing: The sealant cools and hardens, forming a flexible, waterproof barrier that moves with the pavement.
