Asphalt Crack Filling & Perimeter Sealing
Stop small cracks from becoming big problems. Preserve the strength and appearance of your pavement.
What Is Asphalt Crack Filling & Perimeter Sealing?
Asphalt crack filling involves injecting a rubberized material into pavement cracks to prevent water infiltration and further damage. Perimeter sealing refers to sealing the edges of your asphalt (near concrete, curbs, or buildings) to protect vulnerable areas where deterioration often begins.
Both services are essential parts of routine asphalt maintenance and play a critical role in extending the lifespan of your pavement.
How Do I Know I Need Asphalt Crack Filling or Perimeter Sealing?
Look out for these signs:
- Visible cracks on the surface of your driveway or parking lot
- Water pooling or leaking into cracks
- Cracks forming near curbs, gutters, sidewalks, or building edges
- Weeds or grass growing from asphalt gaps
- Faded or brittle-looking pavement surface
- It’s been over 12 months since your last maintenance
If left untreated, small cracks can quickly expand due to water infiltration and seasonal temperature changes—resulting in potholes or structural failure.
Why Should I Get Asphalt Crack Filling?
Cracks might seem minor, but they allow moisture to penetrate the pavement, leading to erosion of the base layer and eventual failure. Crack filling is the first line of defense against:
- Water damage
- Freeze-thaw cycles
- Accelerated wear from traffic
- Costly structural repairs
By sealing these cracks early, you protect your investment and avoid more expensive reconstruction down the road.
Can All Asphalt Cracks Be Repaired with Crack Filling?
Not all cracks are the same—and not all require the same treatment.
- Crack Filling is best for non-working cracks (less than ½ inch wide), which don’t move much over time.
- Crack Sealing may be recommended for larger or more dynamic cracks that expand and contract seasonally.
- For extensive damage or alligator cracking, more aggressive repair methods like patching or resurfacing may be needed.
At Prime Pave, we evaluate your pavement to determine the right solution—so you’re not overpaying for services you don’t need or under-treating damage that requires more attention.
How Often Does My Pavement Need Crack Filling?
The frequency of asphalt crack filling depends on several factors, including weather conditions, traffic volume, and the current condition of your pavement. In Southern Utah’s climate, with its intense sun, wide temperature swings, and occasional rainfall, it’s important to stay ahead of pavement deterioration.
At minimum, we recommend having your asphalt inspected once a year. If cracks are identified, timely crack filling can prevent water infiltration and structural damage. Most commercial and residential properties benefit from crack filling every 12–18 months, especially if the pavement is exposed to:
- Heavy traffic (vehicles or foot)
- Freeze-thaw cycles
- Standing water or poor drainage
- High UV exposure and oxidation
Routine crack maintenance helps extend the life of your asphalt and avoids more costly repairs down the road. Even if you’ve recently sealcoated your surface, new cracks can still form and should be treated as soon as they appear.
At Prime Pave Asphalt Services, we offer annual inspection plans and flexible scheduling to ensure your pavement stays in top condition year-round.
