Pavement repair
Crack Filling
Stop small cracks from becoming expensive potholes. We use hot-rubberized crack sealant that bonds deep, flexes with temperature, and keeps water out of your sub-base.

Stop water before it spreads
Once water gets under your asphalt, freeze-thaw cycles and traffic loads create potholes within months. Crack filling is the single most cost-effective way to extend pavement life — every $1 spent on crack sealing saves an estimated $4–$10 in future asphalt repair.
Best paired with seal coating
Crack filling is the foundation step before seal coating — together they can double the life of your parking lot. We typically schedule crack fill, then seal coat 24–48 hours later, then re-stripe — all in one mobilization.
Hot-pour rubberized sealant
We use ASTM D6690-spec hot rubberized crack sealant heated to 380°F so it flows deep into the crack, bonds to clean asphalt walls, and stays flexible from 0°F to 140°F. Cold-pour caulks last months; hot-pour lasts years.
Routing for severe cracks
Cracks wider than 1/2-inch or that have alligator patterns near the surface are routed and cleaned before sealant is applied. Routing creates a clean reservoir that holds 4–5x more sealant for a longer-lasting repair.

Our process
How it works
- 1
Site walk
We measure linear feet of crack, grade severity, and identify routing needs.
- 2
Clean & rout
Cracks are blown clean with high-pressure air; severe cracks are routed for reservoir.
- 3
Hot-pour seal
ASTM-spec rubberized sealant is heated and applied with squeegee or wand.
- 4
Cure & open
Cracks cool and skin in 30–60 minutes; lot is traffic-ready same shift.
