HOT-APPLIED, RUBBERIZED CRACK SEAL
Protect Your Pavement Before Small Cracks Become Expensive Repairs
In Michiana, our asphalt takes a beating. Every winter, freezing temperatures, snow, ice, rain, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles cause pavement to expand and contract. Cracks allow water to penetrate beneath the surface, weakening the foundation and accelerating deterioration.
Hot Rubberized Crack Sealing is one of the most cost-effective pavement preservation services available. Instead of allowing moisture to continue damaging the pavement from below, we clean each crack and install a premium hot-applied rubberized sealant that bonds tightly to the asphalt, creating a durable, waterproof barrier.
Unlike rigid fillers, hot rubberized sealant remains flexible after it cools. As the pavement naturally expands during summer heat and contracts during winter cold, the sealant moves with it instead of breaking away. This flexibility helps maintain the seal through our changing seasons.
Allows Thermal Expansion
Stops Water Intrusion
Withstands Extreme Weather
Michiana experiences significant seasonal temperature swings. Rubberized crack sealant stretches and compresses with normal pavement movement, helping maintain a watertight seal through repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Water is the number one cause of asphalt failure. Once moisture reaches the stone base beneath the pavement, it weakens the foundation, leading to larger cracks, potholes, settlement, and costly repairs.
Withstands temps of well below sub zero, maintaining seal in the harshest of weather conditions and drastic temperature changes.
What are the benefits of hot-applied crack sealer?
Did you know?... Hot mix rubberized crack sealer gets heated to between 370 - 390 degrees prior to application. Once applied, the rubber cools in minutes creating a long-lasting seal with ability to accept immediate traffic.
