Seal coating, do you need it?

Seal coating is applying a layer of liquid product over an existing asphalt pavement or driveway to seal the cracks, fill the tiny spaces to prevent the entry of debris and other elements like UV that accelerate the wear and tear of your asphalt paving. Seal coating doesn’t cure existing issues like cracks or holes; it prevents the damages from happening. Our seal coating services save you the inevitable cost of repaving due to poor maintenance and give your asphalt driveway a superior finish that lasts.

What are seal coating and its working?

UV rays from the sun and oxygen in the air can damage asphalt. When this happens, the asphalt becomes brittle and can crack, allowing water, incompressible materials, and other elements to enter the paved surface. If water from rain, snow, and ice gets deep into the concrete or asphalt, it accumulates into pools that accelerate cracking. Seal coating installs a protective layer over your asphalt paving, preventing damage from these elements.

the coating works all year round; all the elements from sunlight to cold affect asphalt. the coating gives your driveway a luxurious, deep black finish that is also slip-resistant. The coating liquid features different emulsions, silica sand, water, and polymers with other proprietary fillers and solids. The solution is applied using a brush, spray, or squeegee.

Seal coating benefits

• seal coating prevents the asphalt on your driveway or parking lot from hardening, becoming brittle, and crumbling. This extends the life of the driveway.
• The finished look is excellent. After filling all the holes and cracks then applying a seal coat, your driveway looks a lot better with a new, uniform coat. The faded, dreary asphalt pavement is restored and made easier to clean.
• Regular coating attracts a reasonably lower cost, saving you a lot of money in the long run. With correctly done and maintained sealed asphalt paving, your pavement lasts longer, and you forget repair costs for cracks and holes.
• coating your pavement speeds up the melting of snow and ice. This protects your pavements and driveway from water, frost, rain, snow damage, or other corrosive materials. Our coating process uses a solution that toughens the pavement, restores the black color, prevents tire marks and footprints, dries faster, and keeps the asphalt pavement intact.
