What is Crack Sealing, and Why Do I Need It?

Cracks are common in asphalt. They can occur due to natural settling. Expansion and contraction due to temperature changes throughout the year can also lead to cracking. While minor cracks don’t look like a major issue, they can become an entry point for water penetration.

Water can wreak havoc on asphalt. It can damage your pavement’s foundation, leading to severe damage like potholes, sinking and more. Furthermore, water can freeze during Canadian winters, pushing cracks farther apart until small cracks become major voids.

Crack seal products prevent those issues from occurring. Our service provides ongoing protection to slow asphalt deterioration, extend your pavement’s life and provide lasting durability.

Will Crack Sealing in Toronto Resolve All Cracks?

Despite this service’s effectiveness, it’s not the solution for all types of cracks. Toronto crack sealing won’t address alligator cracks, potholes or major buckling. It may be inappropriate for deep and wide cracks, too.

Generally, crack seal products will perform best in cracks wider than 1/8 of an inch but smaller than 1 1/2 inches. Your asphalt may need different repair methods to prevent further damage if it is anything bigger. Factors like the sealant used may also come into play.

Contact a crack sealing contractor like Seal Canada for guidance. All forms of damage are unique, and it’s best to get a professional inspection to see what’s right for your pavement.

How Do Crack Sealing Contractors Perform These Repairs?

Asphalt crack sealing begins with site preparation. Crack seal products are only effective when they can adhere to asphalt properly. As a result, cracks need a thorough cleaning.

Your crack sealing contractor will use a crack chasing machine to remove dirt, vegetation and other debris. Depending on the size and condition of the crack, contractors may also use a crack routing machine to widen the void for proper bonding.

After preparation, teams can apply a crack seal. Products used for crack sealing in Toronto come in various formulations. Your contractor will help you choose the right product based on the severity of the crack, typical weather conditions, pavement usage and more. After curing, your pavement is ready for use!

What's the Difference Between Crack Sealing and Crack Filling?

Crack filling and sealing are two essential maintenance services. While some use the terms interchangeably, there are a few key differences.

Generally, filler can fix wider cracks. Contractors place filler material into the void to improve structural integrity. Asphalt crack sealing can also flood voids, but its main goal is to prevent water and debris penetration.

Another key difference is how filler and sealer react to changes in your pavement over time. Filler is typically more rigid after curing, aiming to improve the pavement’s structure. Meanwhile, the crack sealing in Toronto utilizes a rubberized material that bonds to the side walls of the crack. It can move horizontally and vertically as your pavement expands and contracts, preventing additional problems while protecting against water and debris.
