How often should I sealcoat my driveway?

Every two to three years is the standard recommendation for Louisville driveways. High-traffic surfaces or those with significant shade coverage may need attention closer to the two-year mark.

How long does sealcoating take to dry?

We recommend keeping vehicles off the surface for at least 24 hours after application. Foot traffic is fine after a few hours, but tires especially under a turned wheel can scuff the sealer while it's still curing.

Can you sealcoat my driveway in winter?

No. Sealcoating requires temperatures above 50°F and dry conditions to cure properly. In Louisville, the sealcoating season typically runs from late spring through early fall. If you're scheduling ahead, late summer through September is an ideal window before winter weather arrives.

Will sealcoating fix cracks in my driveway?

Sealcoating seals hairline surface cracks but is not a structural repair. Larger cracks need to be filled first which we handle as part of our standard prep process, often on the same day as the sealcoat application.
