Crack Filling Services in the Greater Denver Area
When it comes to pavement preservation, crack filling is one of the most important and affordable first lines of defense. At Mcnally Asphalt & Paving Company, we provide expert asphalt repair services across the Greater Denver area—preventing moisture intrusion, extending surface life, and delaying more costly repairs.
As cracks form in roadways and parking lots from traffic wear, UV exposure, or freeze-thaw cycles, they widen over time and allow water to reach the base layer. That’s when small problems become potholes. Our team uses commercial-grade filler materials and precision repair techniques for long-lasting results.
Crack Filling vs. Sealing
While often confused, crack filling and sealing are two distinct pavement repair techniques—each suited for specific types of damage.
Crack filling involves placing rubberized asphalt or specialty filler into non-working (stable) breaks that don’t significantly expand or contract. It’s ideal for minor surface-level maintenance on asphalt driveways, private roads, and commercial parking lots.
Crack sealing is used for working cracks—those that shift with temperature and weather changes. It offers greater flexibility and durability over time, making it a better option for high-traffic or climate-sensitive areas.
Mcnally Asphalt & Paving Company performs both services based on your pavement’s condition. Our team evaluates each surface carefully to determine whether sealing, filling, or a combination of methods is the best solution.
When to Fill Cracks in Asphalt
This repair is most effective when performed during dry weather and moderate temperatures—typically in spring or fall. Early intervention prevents small cracks from spreading, helping you avoid more serious structural issues.
Common types of cracks that benefit from filling include:
- Linear – Long, straight cracks that follow the path of traffic or base movement.
- Fatigue – Also known as alligator or crocodile cracking, this web-like pattern often occurs in areas with repeated stress or heavy vehicle loading.
- Edge – Damage that forms near the outer edges of asphalt due to poor shoulder support or drainage issues.
For cracks that are too wide, deep, or extensive for filler alone, we may recommend complementary services like asphalt patching, full-depth asphalt repair, or even asphalt milling to remove and replace compromised sections. In many cases, filling is just the first step in a broader pavement maintenance plan—especially for aging parking lots and high-use surfaces.
Don’t wait for surface damage to grow into structural pavement issues. Mcnally Asphalt & Paving Company offers professional crack filling services for parking lots, drives, and roads throughout Aurora, Castle Rock, Parker, and beyond.
