Crack Filling

Crack Filling in North Jersey

Untreated cracks let water reach the base layer and turn into potholes. We rout, clean, and fill cracks with hot-pour rubberized sealant rated for commercial traffic — the single highest-ROI maintenance step you can take.

Overview

Every crack in your lot is a funnel for water — and in New Jersey, water means freeze-thaw damage, base failure, and potholes by spring. Crack filling is the single most cost-effective preventive maintenance step you can take, often returning $5–10 of saved repair cost for every $1 spent.

We use hot-pour rubberized crack sealant rated for commercial traffic, applied with melt kettles at 380°F. The result is a flexible, watertight seal that moves with the asphalt through temperature swings instead of cracking back open.

What's included

  • Hot-pour rubberized crack sealant
  • Wire-wheel cleaning for proper bond
  • Routing on wider, structural cracks
  • Prep work prior to any sealcoat application
  • Extends pavement life 3–5 years

Why it matters

Prevents Potholes

Sealing cracks before water gets to the base layer eliminates 80% of pothole formation.

Highest ROI Maintenance

A few hundred dollars in crack filling can prevent thousands in asphalt patching and base repair.

Required Before Sealcoating

Sealcoat won't bridge open cracks. Crack fill first, then seal — the only correct sequence.

Fast & Minimally Disruptive

Most cracks are filled and trafficable within 30 minutes — perfect for active commercial properties.

Our process

  1. 1

    Crack Assessment

    We walk the lot and mark every crack ¼ inch or wider. Hairline cracks are noted for sealcoat coverage.

  2. 2

    Routing (Structural Cracks)

    Wider cracks are routed to a uniform reservoir for maximum sealant volume and bond.

  3. 3

    Cleaning

    Wire-wheel and high-pressure air clean dust, vegetation, and old sealant out of the crack.

  4. 4

    Hot-Pour Application

    Rubberized sealant melted to 380°F is poured flush with the surface for a flexible, watertight seal.

  5. 5

    Cool & Re-Open

    Sealant cools in 20–30 minutes and the lot is back open to traffic.

Frequently asked

How long does crack fill last?+

Properly applied hot-pour rubber lasts 3–5 years before re-application is needed, and longer when paired with sealcoat.

Should we crack fill or just sealcoat?+

Both. Crack filling addresses structural openings, sealcoating protects the surface. They work together.

What size cracks do you fill?+

Anything ¼ inch wide or larger. Hairline cracks under ¼ inch are typically covered during sealcoating.
