WHAT CAUSES CRACKS AND WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Parking lot crackfilling is an important step in the asphalt maintenance cycle, especially in the Fargo-Moorhead area where we experience a violent freeze-thaw cycle. Crackfilling helps seal your parking lot from water, preventing your base or sub-base from weakening. Cracksealing also keeps water found in the cracks from freezing and expanding their size. Keeping your parking lot properly sealed extends the life of your asphalt saving you money in the long run.

CRACK ROUTING

In some cases, it is necessary to router the parking lot cracks to widen them and give the material something to bind on to. Every parking lot is different, though, and whether this service is right for you depends on a wide range of factors.  Routing cracks makes roughly a ½ inch deep by ½ inch wide reservoir within the asphalt.
