Commercial Asphalt Repair

Alligator cracks, also known as crocodile cracks or fatigue cracks, resemble rough reptile skin and occur when water reaches below the surface of the asphalt, creating pockets of air. The heavy asphalt then shifts to fill the space, causing cracks. When left untreated, these cracks can spread and cause further problems.

These large cracks resemble squares or rectangles on the pavement. They are often the result of the asphalt shrinking due to fluctuating temperatures. 

You may notice cracks developing on the edges of your commercial asphalt. This happens when there is a lack of support on the edge of the asphalt lot or road. Edge cracking is dangerous, especially when it happens on the side of major roadways.

If a new layer of asphalt is placed over an older layer with cracks, you may get reflection cracking. Reflection cracking occurs when the old asphalt layer shifts and cracks the new layer above, mimicking the original cracks below. 

When you notice damage to your commercial asphalt, it’s best to address the issue right away. One freeze and thaw can devastate your asphalt surface, creating a more costly problem than you initially anticipated. If the cracks or potholes are in a high-traffic area, heavy use can also aggravate the problem. Call MoSEAL as soon as you notice a crack appearing in your commercial asphalt. We will provide a quality solution for any asphalt problem you have.

Any DIY project for a commercial asphalt surface is a gamble. Off-the-shelf asphalt crack sealers and pothole filling solutions will never be as powerful or long-lasting as professionally repaired asphalt. The team at MoSEAL not only has years of experience repairing asphalt problems, but we give 100% to every project. A simple pothole fill is just as important as a full parking lot overlay because we are dedicated to creating a safer environment for vehicles and people using your commercial asphalt. 

An asphalt patch covers only a small area of your asphalt surface. An asphalt resurfacing project occurs over the entire surface. MoSEAL recommends patching your asphalt when you only have a small area of asphalt that needs to be repaired. If the asphalt surface has cracks and potholes all over, we recommend resurfacing to take care of the entire problem all at once. 

If you recently had an asphalt patch replaced but you don’t love how the fresh, darker asphalt stands out against the older asphalt around it, call MoSEAL! In cases like these, we recommend adding a new sealcoat to your asphalt for a clean, consistent look. A sealcoat can also protect your asphalt for an additional 2-3 years. Not only will you have an asphalt surface that looks brand new, but you’ll also be confident knowing the asphalt beneath has been reinforced with patching from MoSEAL.
