While cracks may seem insignificant, most problems with pavement integrity start with small cracks. In areas with colder winters, like our customers in the southern Appalachians, moisture on the surface will expand when frozen and push asphalt apart as it does so. Other times, heat may dry out the pavement and wear and tear from heavy use may lead to the formation of cracks.
Once a crack is in place, it will only expand if left alone and water continues to enter and weaken the area. The crack then widens, lengthens, and threatens the overall stability of the surface. At Turner Asphalt, we offer professional pavement repair and crack filling services to prevent deterioration, protect against moisture damage, and extend surface life.
Cracks can be filled or sealed, depending on the severity of the problem. These are two methods of filling the space and re-integrating the area to the surrounding pavement. When done properly, this can be seen as a permanent solution relative to the life of the entire paved surface.
Crack filling is a proactive maintenance service designed to prevent water intrusion and slow pavement deterioration. Our process focuses on properly preparing and sealing cracks to help protect the pavement structure, extend surface life, and reduce the need for more costly repairs in the future.
We evaluate the pavement to identify the type, size, and condition of each crack, then determine which areas are suitable for filling.
We remove dirt, vegetation, and loose debris from the cracks using a wire brush, broom, or compressed air to create a clean surface for proper adhesion.
Hot pour crack filler is applied to the cracks, allowing the material to flow and bond to the crack walls.
The filler is smoothed for an even finish, then left to cure so it can form a durable, long-lasting seal.
Preventative maintenance is only effective when it’s done correctly. Turner Asphalt uses proven crack filling methods and quality materials to help protect pavement from water intrusion, surface deterioration, and premature failure.
Serving North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee, our team delivers reliable service, quality workmanship, and maintenance solutions designed to help property owners maximize the life of their pavement investment.
Crack filling helps property owners address minor pavement issues before they develop into larger and more expensive repairs. This preventative maintenance service is commonly used across a variety of properties to protect pavement, improve appearance, and extend service life.
Our team can get to work repairing your pavement at the first signs of wear and tear. Look for clues such as cracks, pooling water, potholes, and a faded surface. The sooner we repair minor damage, the more resistant your asphalt will be to more extensive damage in the future.
The services we provide depend on the type of pavement damage and how deep it goes. Asphalt patching is similar to adding a patch to your clothes, in that our team will lay new asphalt to repair large areas of damage, such as potholes. In comparison, crack repair seals small cracks in the pavement before they turn into bigger problems, helping to reduce the need for a patch.
Yes. When projects involve both concrete and asphalt, we coordinate the work so each phase is completed in the right order. This helps keep the project running smoothly and reduces the need for rework or delays between scopes.
Reactive maintenance addresses problems after they occur — it’s often rushed, temporary, and leads to higher long-term costs. Proactive maintenance catches issues early, maximizes pavement lifespan, and keeps your facility running without unexpected downtime.
