Crack Filling | Blackstone Paving & Excavating
Small cracks in asphalt can quickly turn into major problems if left untreated. Blackstone Paving & Excavating provides expert crack filling services to protect driveways, parking lots, and roadways across Greater Philadelphia and the Keystone State.
Using professional-grade rubberized fillers, we seal pavement breakages before water, debris, and freeze-thaw cycles cause them to break down even more. Proper pavement maintenance services like these extend the life of your parking lot, driveway, or roadway.
How does it work?
Crack Filling: Preventative Care for Philadelphia Pavement
This key pavement maintenance technique involves injecting flexible material into cracks to prevent them from expanding. Unlike sealing, which is a more elastic, long-term solution, crack filling is used for non-working cracks that experience minimal movement. This process helps stabilize the paved structure and prevent fatigue cracks from spreading.
Weather fluctuations, heavy traffic, and natural pavement aging are common causes of cracking in paved areas. Without intervention, cracks lead to more significant damage, including potholes and crocodile cracking, which may require more extensive repair.
Our Crack Filling Process
Our experienced asphalt paving team follows a thorough repair process to ensure lasting results:
- Inspection: We assess the pavement to determine if crack filling is the best solution.
- Cleaning: Dirt, debris, and moisture are removed to create a strong bond.
- Filling Cracks in Asphalt: A high-quality asphalt crack filler is applied to reinforce weak areas.
- Finishing: The material is leveled and allowed to cure, ensuring a smooth, durable surface.
The Benefits of Routine Crack Maintenance
Regular maintenance, including crack filling, is one of the most effective ways to extend pavement life. Key benefits include:
- Prevents water infiltration that leads to potholes and base failure.
- Reduces the risk of crocodile cracking and fatigue cracks.
- Minimizes the need for costly asphalt repairs or replacement.
- Improves safety by creating a smoother, more even surface.
