Crack filling is one of the most important maintenance steps for asphalt driveways and parking lots. Harrison Paving uses hot rubberized crack filler to seal cracks and prevent water infiltration that leads to potholes, base failure, and costly repairs. Left untreated, water enters cracks and expands during South Jersey's freeze-thaw cycles, widening small cracks into major structural failures.
We clean each crack of debris and vegetation, then apply hot rubberized sealant that flexes with temperature changes rather than cracking again. For wider cracks, we use a combination of backer rod and sealant to create a durable, flexible bond. This prevents water from reaching the stone base where the real damage occurs during winter. Crack filling is typically combined with sealcoating for complete protection.
The best time for crack filling in South Jersey is spring or early fall when temperatures are moderate. We recommend filling cracks annually as part of your driveway maintenance routine. For driveways with extensive cracking, we will assess whether crack filling is sufficient or whether resurfacing would be more cost-effective. Call (856) 694-4181 for a free assessment.
