Fixing Small Cracks in Asphalt Driveways

Simple crack repair and maintenance can help prolong the life of your asphalt driveway

Before patching the crack, it is important for the area to be as clean as possible so that the patching material can adhere easily.

  • Use a wire brush or a wire wheel on a drill to remove dirt and debris from the crack.
  • Shop vac to ensure that all of the loose debris and smaller particles have been removed. If a shop vac is available to you, you can use a garden hose to flush out the crack. If you use a garden hose, you need to let the crack dry completely before continuing.

Fixing Smaller Cracks in Asphalt (1/8 in – 1/2 in)

  • To fill smaller cracks you should use rubberized asphalt-emulsion crack filler.
  • Use a putty knife or trowel to smooth out the surface of the crack.
  • Let the filler dry according to the instructions on the packaging before driving over the affected area.

Simple regular maintenance like this can keep your asphalt looking good for years to come.  Remember, crack repair can be a long process and if your driveway or parking lot requires more extensive repairs.  Give us a call.
