Preserving Cathedral City’s Roads
Crack sealing is a preventative maintenance treatment that seals cracks in the asphalt before water and debris can get in and cause larger problems. It’s a cost-effective way to extend the life of our streets and keep them in good shape for years to come.
The City appreciates the patience and cooperation of residents and businesses during this work.
