Sealing cracks is the most economical way to prevent future asphalt deterioration and asphalt expenses. Small cracks of ¼ inch or less can be effectively sealed using a pourable sealant. Cracks can be blown out or routed and filled with this material. The result is a crack that is impervious to the water that could easily deteriorate the sub-base of the pavement and compromise its integrity if it is allowed to freely flow downward.
Residential Crackseal Applications
Many years of research have confirmed that crack treatments are the most cost-effective method of pavement preservation. Study after study has proven that when cracks are sealed at the proper time, two to four years of added pavement life can be expected before other maintenance treatments are required. Approximately every $1.00 spent on crack sealing produces around $4.00 in rehabilitation cost savings.
Pavement cracks are inevitable, and without proper maintenance and repair they tend to lead towards accelerated cracking, degradation of the subgrade, alligator cracking and potholes. Take a moment and give Superior Aggregates a call for a free bid.
