Crack Sealing
Crack Sealing Services in Worcester County
The most important Preventative Maintenance step you can do for your asphalt parking lot or driveway is Crack Sealing! Cracks naturally develop in asphalt due to oxidation and pavement deterioration. Neglected cracks allow moisture and other harmful substances to erode the subbase of an asphalt surface. This accelerates the deterioration of the asphalt and is commonly evidenced by the following conditions:
1. The formation of voids under the pavement
2. The alligatoring or spider web cracking of larger areas
3. Heaving due to the Freeze/Thaw cycle
4. Potholes and other trip hazards
5. Complete Failure
