Cracks show up in asphalt parking lots after about five years of traffic and weather cycles. You'll see them running parallel to the building where water runs off, at the edges where cars turn, and in straight lines where the base settled unevenly. Fresh cracks look like dark lines with clean edges, while older ones have grass growing in them or chunks missing along the sides.
Water gets down into those cracks and sits against your pavement base every time it rains. Delivery trucks and employee cars drive over them daily, making them wider with each pass. Other contractors won't resurface over unsealed cracks because they know the new asphalt will fail in the same spots within a year.
Abco Pavement Services cleans out every crack with compressed air to remove loose material and old filler that's pulled away from the edges. Hot rubberized sealant gets poured into each crack, filling it completely from the bottom up to the surface level. The crew squeegees each sealed crack flush with your existing pavement and marks the area until the sealant cures. New striping or surface treatments are separate if your property needs them.
Your parking lot will shed water properly again instead of letting it pool in the cracks. Delivery trucks and customer vehicles can drive over the sealed areas without catching an edge or making the damage worse. The pavement base stays dry and stable underneath, giving you years more life before you need major resurfacing work.

Those cracks let water straight down into the base of your pavement. Every freeze makes them wider and deeper. You're looking at chunks of asphalt breaking off and potholes forming where the cracks used to be.
Common questions
Parking lot is cracking and crumblingYour parking lot looks terrible. Cracks are spreading and pieces of asphalt are breaking off. Customers are complaining and you're worried about liability.Small cracks can be sealed, but widespread crumbling means the base is failing. Get someone to check if you need crack sealing, an overlay, or full replacement. Don't wait - water gets in cracks and makes everything worse fast.
Is my crumbling parking lot a safety hazardYour parking lot has potholes and loose chunks of asphalt. You're worried someone will trip and sue you, or damage their car and blame you for it.Yes, deteriorated pavement creates liability risk. Document the damage, put up temporary warning signs or cones around the worst spots, and get repair estimates immediately. Don't ignore it and hope for the best.
When should I repave my parking lotYour parking lot is getting rough but still functional. You're trying to figure out if you should repave now, wait another year, or if there are warning signs you're missing.Repave when you see widespread cracking, multiple potholes, or soft spots that compress under weight. Waiting too long means more expensive base repairs. Best time is late spring through early fall when weather is stable.
Can I fix parking lot cracks myselfYou have cracks in your parking lot and you're wondering if you can just buy some crack filler and do it yourself instead of hiring a contractor.Small cracks can be DIY with store-bought filler, but it usually fails within a year. Professional crack sealing uses hot-pour sealant and proper prep that lasts 3-5 years. For anything bigger than hairline cracks, hire a pro.
How much does crack sealing costYour parking lot has cracks everywhere. You got a quote for crack sealing but you're not sure if the price is fair. You don't know what goes into the cost.Crack sealing cost depends on linear feet of cracks, crack width, and sealant type. Hot pour rubber sealant costs more than cold pour but lasts longer. Get quotes that break down material versus labor so you can compare properly.
Can I seal my own parking lot cracksYou have small cracks in your parking lot. You're thinking about buying crack filler from the hardware store. You want to save money but don't want to make it worse.Small hairline cracks can be DIY sealed with store-bought cold pour sealant. Cracks wider than a quarter inch need hot pour rubber sealant and professional equipment. Bad DIY sealing can make future repairs harder and more expensive.
