Sealcoating

Asphalt sealer is a surface protectant used in sealcoating that blocks out harmful UV rays, and prevents moisture penetration and oxidation.

Sealcoating your commercial parking lot and/or your driveway every 2-3 years is not only used as a preventative measure, but also, as an aesthetic upgrade sure to extend the life and quality of your asphalt pavement. When applied in conjunction with our hot rubberized asphalt crack filler, your asphalt pavement’s natural deterioration rate drops dramatically. Is it important to repair asphalt cracks with hot rubberized asphalt sealer before sealcoating to prevent larger pavement flaws from occurring.

Applying asphalt sealer regularly has several benefits

  • Asphalt sealer adds a protective layer to your asphalt helping to protect against UV rays and spills.
  • Sealcoating reduces the rate of water permeation to your asphalt and its base. This is very important, because water is the most damaging element to your asphalt.
  • A parking lot or driveway that looks fresh overall improves the aesthetic appeal and value of your property.
  • Overall, sealcoating every 2-3 years can help to preserve and extend the lifespan of your asphalt pavement.

Wondering how much asphalt sealer will cost you? On average, a typical 25,000 square foot parking lot costs approximately $3,200 to sealcoat. However, the final cost of your project will vary depending on several factors:

  1. Size Of The Job
  2. Number Of Trips Required To Complete
  3. Materials & Methods Used
  4. Additional Preparation Required

How To Prepare For Your Sealcoating Project

  • Cleanup and inspect your asphalt.
  • Make note of any crackspotholes, or other pavement defects to be repaired prior to sealcoating. Understand, that sealer is not a substitute for crack filling and pothole repair, but is to be applied in conjunction with these other required reparations.
  • Ensure the pavement is completely dry before sealer application.
  • Remember that your lot will need to be restriped after sealcoating application.

Typically, the best time of year for asphalt sealer is the summer for several reasons. However, this does not mean that sealcoating cannot be completed effectively through to October. In fact, crack filling, patching, and sealer should all be on your fall maintenance to-do list prior to winter!
