Asphalt crack sealing and asphalt crack filling are essentially the same things. An asphalt specialist will use various methods to clean and fill the cracks with a hot, rubber sealant that will then solidify and seal the crack. Sometimes crack sealing is a term used for an existing crack that has been filled already prior. It just may have split open on the surface and needs to be sealed again. Whichever you need, Morgan Pavement can work with you customizing a solution that seals the asphalt and prevents further damage.

Asphalt cracks usually occur after a pavement undergoes the freeze and thaw cycle multiple times. This cycle happens when cold temperatures occur, which causes the asphalt to shift and move. The shifting then stresses the asphalt, which then negatively reacts when the weather starts to warm. It can also occur from extreme temperatures that cause asphalt to shrink and crack. If there is an unstable sub-grade, that will also cause the asphalt surface to crack. Whatever caused your asphalt to crack, contact Morgan Pavement to address the issue.
