Asphalt Crack Filling
Asphalt crack filling is an important part of maintaining the integrity and safety of your pavement. Cracks in asphalt can be caused by temperature changes, water infiltration, and other factors. If left untreated, these cracks can allow water to seep into the base of the asphalt, leading to further damage and the formation of potholes. Crack filling can prevent further damage and extend the life of your pavement.
There are several benefits to crack filling your asphalt, including:
-
Preventing further damage: As mentioned, ignoring needed crack filling can lead to more significant issues down the road, such as potholes, cracking, and even complete pavement failure. Filling cracks in a timely manner can prevent these issues and save you money in the long run.
-
Enhancing the appearance of your property: Asphalt that is well-maintained and free of cracks can enhance the appearance of your property and increase its value.
-
Ensuring safety: Cracks in asphalt can create a safety hazard for pedestrians and vehicles. Filling cracks can help to prevent accidents and injuries.
There are several methods for crack filling, including hot pour crack filling and cold pour crack filling. Hot pour crack filling involves heating the asphalt crack filler material and applying it to the cracks. This method is more effective at sealing cracks and can be completed in a shorter amount of time. Cold-pour crack filling involves applying the crack filler material at room temperature. While this method is not as effective at sealing the cracks, it is a good option for small cracks or cracks in areas that cannot be heated.
