Wonderful experience! The work was quoted and completed within the same week. Price is very competitive and the work is top notch. During the installs and in between dump truck deliveries the staffing supported minor landscaping and helped with surrounding projects. Great local service that met all of my needs!

Crack Sealing in Batesville, IN
Hodges Grading & Excavating provides professional crack sealing for asphalt driveways and lots across Batesville, Indiana and surrounding communities.
Expert Crack Sealing in Batesville, IN
Crack sealing is one of the most practical ways to protect asphalt pavement in Batesville and across southeastern Indiana. When cracks go untreated, water works its way into the pavement. During Indiana winters, that water freezes, expands, and forces cracks wider with each freeze-thaw cycle. Left alone, small cracks become costly structural failures. Hodges Grading & Excavating applies hot rubberized sealant directly into pavement cracks. The sealant stays flexible, moving with the asphalt as temperatures shift through the season. Before any sealant goes down, cracks are cleaned to remove debris so the material bonds properly to the pavement walls. This service is well suited for residential driveways, commercial parking lots, and private roads throughout Batesville, Greensburg, Oldenburg, Sunman, Osgood, Versailles, Shelbyville, Milan, Aurora, Dillsboro, Lawrenceburg, Westport, and Brookville. If your asphalt is showing surface cracks, addressing them now protects the base beneath and reduces the scope of future repairs. Contact Hodges Grading & Excavating to schedule crack sealing service.

FAQ
Crack Sealing FAQ
Common questions about crack sealing in Batesville, IN.
Yes, crack sealing stops water from getting into the pavement base before Indiana's freeze-thaw cycles cause bigger damage. Addressing cracks early is far less involved than repairing a deteriorated base or resurfacing the entire driveway.
Crack sealing works well on surface cracks that have not yet caused base-layer damage in Greensburg driveways and parking lots. A professional assessment of the crack pattern, width, and surrounding pavement condition determines the right approach.
Yes, crack sealing is commonly used on commercial parking lots throughout the Lawrenceburg area to stop water intrusion and slow pavement deterioration. It is a practical preventive step before cracks spread across high-traffic surfaces.
Crack sealing fills and seals surface-level cracks with a flexible rubberized material to keep water out. Patching addresses areas where the pavement or base has already broken down and needs material removed and replaced.
Crack sealing performs best when pavement is dry and air temperatures are above 40°F, which in Oldenburg and Sunman typically means spring or fall conditions. Wet or freezing surfaces prevent the sealant from bonding correctly.
