Common questions

Why fill asphalt cracks?

Open cracks give water a path into the pavement base. Filling suitable cracks helps reduce that water intrusion and slow damage from moisture and freeze-thaw cycles.

Will I still see the repaired cracks?

Yes. The rubber is designed to seal and move with the crack, not make it invisible. The repair lines can remain visible, even after sealcoating.

Can every type of cracking be filled?

No. Hot-applied rubber works on suitable cracks. Widespread alligator cracking, sinking or crumbling asphalt often points to deeper failure that requires a different repair.

How is crack filling different from sealcoating?

Crack filling seals individual openings. Sealcoating protects the asphalt surface. They address different problems and are often performed together.

What conditions are needed for crack filling?

The cracks need to be clean and dry, and the air and pavement temperatures must meet the material requirements. Weather determines the final schedule.

Should cracks be filled before sealcoating?

Yes, when the cracks are suitable for filling. Completing that repair first helps limit water entry beneath the new protective coating.
