Crack Sealing in Applewood Estates
Posted on Oct 19th, 2015
Your HOA requested the City of Richland to add Applewood Estates in their crack sealing program this year and we are happy to announce that crews will begin as soon as they finish with Keene Village streets.
Crack sealing is a long-term, cost effective way to maintain the life of our city streets. It seals the cracks from water intrusion and other damaging factors. Material will be applied hot to create a bond with the existing pavement as a defense against deterioration.
Here are the benefits of crack sealing:
- Cost effective to the City and better use of our tax money
- Prevents sand, stones and dirt from entering into open cracks causing compressive stresses.
- Prevents weeds from growing in cracks
- Prevents water from entering and weakening the sub base and asphalt
- Prevents or delays pothole formation
- Reduces the damage from Freeze-thaw cycles
We would like to thank the City of Richland for including Applewood Estates in their crack sealing program this year.
