Crack Sealing & Routing

Stop cracks before they stop you.

Cracks are the #1 enemy of asphalt. Once water penetrates the surface, it erodes the sub-base and leads to costly potholes. We use hot rubberized sealants to lock out moisture and extend the life of your pavement.

Fully Insured

Comprehensive liability coverage for your peace of mind.

Premium Materials

We only use ASTM D6690 and OPSS 1212 rated rubberized crack filler.

Local Experts

Proudly serving the GTA and surrounding areas.

The Industrial Standard

Industrial-grade protection. Professional-grade performance.

380°F Hot-Applied Rubber

We use highway-grade sealant that remains flexible from -40°C to +40°C.

Mechanical Routing

We offer specialized widening for structural cracks to ensure a permanent bond.

Immediate Traffic Readiness

Our sand-dusting and de-tacking allows you to drive on the repair minutes after application.

Why It Matters in Ontario

Why bother crack filling?

1000_F_1403970274_Jjw0u46MzI7LaIBWHnFkuvSjkkG7yELp

In Ontario, we deal with extreme temperature swings. Water gets into a crack, freezes, expands, and literally "jacks" your asphalt apart. By the time spring hits, that small crack is a pothole. Professional crack sealing is the single most cost-effective maintenance task you can perform to avoid a $20,000 repaving bill.

Why It Matters in Ontario

Precision crack routing

1000_F_1403970274_Jjw0u46MzI7LaIBWHnFkuvSjkkG7yELp

Standard filling only seals a gap, but Precision Routing creates a permanent fix. We use a mechanical router to turn jagged cracks into clean "U-shaped" channels, ensuring maximum grip for our sealant. In Ontario's freeze-thaw cycles, asphalt expands and contracts aggressively. By routing a consistent reservoir, we create a "rubber band" effect, allowing the rubber sealant to stretch during deep freezes without snapping or peeling away from the pavement.

Our Process

How we guarantee a permanent bond

We don't just "pour and go." Our multi-step process is engineered for the Canadian climate:

01

Cleaning & Prep

We use crack cleaners, heat-lances, and high-pressure air to remove all vegetation, moisture, and debris. The sealant will not bond to a dirty or wet crack.

02

Routing (Optional)

For commercial lots and structural cracks, we use a mechanical router to create a clean, square reservoir. This allows the sealant to expand and contract without pulling away from the edges.

03

Hot-Rubber Injection

We use direct-fire and specialized oil-jacketed kettles to heat the rubber to at least 380°F. This liquid rubber is injected deep into the crack, sealing it from the bottom up.

04

Strike-Off & Detack

We finish with a "V" shaped squeegee for a flush look and apply a light coating of black sand or de-tackifier to prevent tire "pick-up."

Two Tiers of Repair

Choose the right repair for your pavement

Not every crack is created equal. At Sealcoat Canada, we offer two tiers of repair to match your budget and the condition of your asphalt.

Feature Standard Crack Filling Routed Crack Repair (The Gold Standard)
Preparation Wire brush and high-pressure air cleaning Mechanical routing (widening the crack into a reservoir)
Bonding Surface-level adhesion Deep-channel reservoir for 2x the sealant volume and superior adhesion
Longevity Ideal for seasonal maintenance Engineered for 5+ years of performance
Best For Hairline or non-structural cracks Deep, wide, expanding, structural cracks

Frequently Asked Questions

Get the answers to our most frequently asked questions about Crack Sealing & Routing.

How wide of a crack can you fill?

We typically seal cracks from 1/4 inch up to 1 inch wide. If the crack is wider than an inch or has turned into an "alligator" pattern, we may recommend Asphalt Patching instead.

Is "Routing" really worth the extra cost?

Will the cracks still be visible?

When is the best time to do this?
