CRACK SEALING

Water is asphalt’s worst enemy. When water freezes, the expansion of ice causes cracks to widen and pavement to buckle. Our system ensures a properly sealed water-tight crack. It prevents water from reaching the base, putting an end to costly repairs from potholes and subbase failure. It will add years to the life of your pavement and save you money down the road.

 

APPLICATION PROCESS

Our system ensures a properly sealed water-tight crack.
Routing: creates a sufficient reservoir for the crack sealant to bond properly.
Cleaning: uses compressed air to eliminate dust and debris that would inhibit bonding of the sealant.
Sealing: cracks are sealed with a Fed spec rubber joint sealant.

 

SPECIFICATIONS

All materials meet ASTM-D-6690 standard (previously Federal specification ASTM-D-3405).

All crack sealer is heated in an indirect fired kettle designed specifically for crack sealing.

Properly sealed cracks help to keep moisture out of the pavement subbase. Serious damage can occur if moisture freezes in the asphalt.

Crack sealing reduces maintenance costs.
