Hot Tar Crack Filling & Crack Repair in the Lehigh Valley, PA
Based in Walnutport, PA (Northampton County). Serving Northampton, Lehigh, Carbon, and Monroe Counties. Owner Dale meets every customer on site and oversees each project from written proposal to final rolling.
A crack in your asphalt is a path for water. In the Lehigh Valley, that water freezes over winter, expands, and turns a hairline crack into a pothole. Hot-applied crack filling seals those openings so water cannot get beneath the surface. DSP Paving routes, cleans, and fills cracks on residential and commercial asphalt across Northampton, Lehigh, Carbon, and Monroe Counties from our Walnutport base.
Hot crack sealant is heated and poured into the crack, where it bonds to the sides and flexes with the pavement as it moves through temperature swings. Unlike cold products that sit on top, hot fill sits in the crack and moves with it.
Crack filling is the lowest-cost defense against the most expensive problem in asphalt: base failure caused by water. Filled cracks do not disappear, but they stop growing.

Signs You Need Hot Tar Crack Filling & Crack Repair
Visible Cracks
Any crack wide enough to let water in should be filled before winter.
Water Entering the Base
If water runs into a crack during rain, it is reaching the stone base below.
Before Freeze-Thaw
Filling cracks before cold weather prevents the expansion that turns cracks into potholes.
Cracks Widen in Cold
Cracks that open wider each winter are letting water cycle in and out of the base.
How We Do It
Route and Clean
Cracks are routed to sound material and blown clean so the sealant bonds to solid edges.
Heat the Sealant
Hot rubberized sealant is heated to application temperature for a flexible, lasting bond.
Fill and Squeegee
Sealant is poured into the crack and squeegeed flush with the surface.
Cure and Reopen
The fill cures to a traffic-ready state on the timing Dale gives you.
Crack filling is a warm-weather, dry-surface job. The sealant needs heat to bond and a dry crack to adhere. In the Lehigh Valley, fill cracks before the freeze-thaw season so winter water cannot reopen them.
Family-Owned, Three Generations In
We route and clean before we fill, so the sealant bonds to solid pavement.
Hot sealant flexes with the pavement through temperature swings instead of popping out.
Filling cracks is the cheapest way to stop the water that causes expensive base failure.

What People Say
“Dale is a good communicator, keeping in touch with the client compared to my experiences with two other paving companies. He was able to do a paving job as well as seal a prior paving job. He started and completed the work the week after he gave us a price. His team's prep work was neat and precise before laying down the asphalt paving which looks really nice. I would hire him again, if I needed this kind of work done in the future.”
“They were amazing, excellent, really good! They were on time, took extra care and had respect for my home. The owner took extra time to discuss the job and answer my questions.”
