Standard versus long-term crack repair

Standard treatment fills and levels each crack at $6 per linear foot. It is the right call for a court with a few hairline cracks in a warm climate. The long-term system at $20 per linear foot bridges the crack with a membrane so it does not telegraph back through the new surface, which matters in freeze-thaw climates or on slabs with structural movement. A full-court mat system at $6 per sq ft is the step past that: it isolates the whole surface from the slab.
