Large asphalt cracks of 3/8" and greater are prone to movement with temperature changes and need to be filled with a sealant that has a very high elasticity. Our hot-applied, asphalt sealant will fill larger cracks up to 1-1/2" in width. First, our paving crew removes dirt and vegetation using hand tools and our heat lance system. The heat lance dries the crack by forcing hot air into the crack at 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit at 1,000 pounds per square inch. This system also assures proper bonding of the hot pour crack filler by drawing liquid asphalt from the pavement to the edges of the pavement break and acting as an additional bonding agent.
Later on, asphalt crack filler is heated to a pourable consistency approximately 350 degrees Fahrenheit in a melting unit with thermostatic control. The sealant is applied directly to the asphalt using a hand wand and the excess material is banded over the pavement crack with a squeegee to form a tight seal over the surface. This material is extremely flexible and will move with the expansion and contraction of the pavement as well as keep water out.
Sealing asphalt cracks in your parking lots or driveways is the most economical way to prevent future asphalt deterioration and expenses. Small cracks of 1/4" or less can be effectively sealed using a pourable sealant.
