Protective Coating
There is nothing like that fresh sealcoating look. Beyond making your asphalt look great, sealcoating provides protection against, weather damage, harmful uv rays, fluid leakage from vehicles and more. This protection can prolong damage, minimize crack expansion, and help preserve your asphalt.
Asphalt Maintenance
Without any maintenance, asphalt cracks, heaves, and has a reduced lifespan. One of the simplest things you can do is get it sealcoated regularly! This preserves the top coating of your asphalt. Alongside sealcoating, we recommend filling any cracks or gaps to prevent moisture from eroding or freezing and causing heaving.
Patching Cracks and Holes
Part of keeping your asphalt driveway or parking lot in good condition is filling any cracks or gaps. We look for gaps between your driveway and garage floor, sidewalk and street curb. When a gap is exposed to the elements for a prolonged period, it will expand and allow shifting or heaving in your asphalt.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Driveway Sealcoating Worth It?
Absolutely. Sealcoating your driveway is the best way to maintain and care for your asphalt driveway. If left unsealed and unmaintained, asphalt lifespan can be cut in half with moderate traffic. Additionally, cracks and gaps can fill with moisture which erodes the dirt underneath and can cause cave-ins or can freeze in the winter and expand cracks. Read more about Driveway Sealcoating.
How Often Should I Sealcoat My Driveway?
Either every year or every other year depending upon various factors. The condition of the driveway is a primary determining factor. We suggest evaluating your driveway usage, what types of vehicles are driving on it, leaking fluids from vehicles, and weather (salt damage & plow scrapes).
What Is The Best Time Of Year To Seal My Driveway?
Depending upon weather conditions and temperature, usually we begin working in the field the beginning of May and our season ends in October. However, it is preferred driveway sealcoating to be done when the temperature is warmer averaging a minimum of 50 degrees F.
How Long Should I Stay Off My Driveway After Sealing It?
Depending upon driveway condition, we ask the majority of our customers to remain off the driveway for a minimum of 48 hours. However, in the later months of the season as it gets colder, 72 hours is even better.
