Why Crackfilling Should Be Part of Your Annual Maintenance Plan
Asphalt surfaces are prone to cracking over time due to weathering, heavy traffic, and exposure to the elements. Capital Parking Lot Line Painting, a leading pavement maintenance company in Greater Sudbury, recommends incorporating crackfilling into your annual maintenance plan to extend the lifespan of your asphalt surfaces.
What is Crackfilling?
Crackfilling is the process of sealing cracks in asphalt surfaces with a rubberized sealant. This prevents water from seeping into the cracks and causing further damage, such as potholes and surface deterioration. Capital Parking Lot Line Painting uses high-quality, flexible sealants that can withstand the harsh winters of Greater Sudbury, a top 30 city in Ontario.
Benefits of Crackfilling
- Extends the lifespan of your asphalt surfaces
- Prevents water infiltration and subsequent damage
- Improves the overall appearance of your property
- Cost-effective maintenance solution
When Should You Crackfill?
Capital Parking Lot Line Painting recommends crackfilling as part of your annual maintenance plan. The ideal time to crackfill is during the spring or fall when temperatures are moderate, allowing the sealant to cure properly. Crackfilling in the summer heat or winter cold can compromise the effectiveness of the sealant.
The Crackfilling Process
- Surface preparation: Cracks are cleaned and dried to ensure proper adhesion of the sealant.
- Sealant application: A specialized crackfilling machine is used to apply the rubberized sealant into the cracks.
- Curing: The sealant is allowed to cure and harden, creating a flexible, waterproof barrier.
