Hot Tar Crack Filling

Every pothole in Colorado starts as a crack that let water into the base and froze. We clean and rout the crack, then fill it with hot rubberized crack sealer that flexes with the pavement instead of popping out the first cold snap. It is the highest-return maintenance dollar you can spend on asphalt.

Timing matters

Sealer needs 50°F and rising plus a 24–48 hour cure, which closes the season in early October at our elevation. When to seal coat in Colorado Springs (and what happens if you wait)

Crack filling runs later in the season than seal coating. Crack filling before winter in Colorado Springs
