Seal coating has been used to maintain asphalt pavements for decades now; it is nothing new in construction. It is where a thin liquid layer is added to your paved way to protect it from fluids from vehicles, snow, rain, and damages from the sun’s UV rays.
Despite not being the solution to existing cracks, seal coating prevents such damages from taking place, to begin with. Seal coats are usually acrylics or products with bitumen mixed with water, polymer additives, fillers, solids, and silica sand to form the liquid added on pavements. Due to its slip-resistant property and deep black finish, the seal coat enhances the beauty of your driveway or a parking lot
Seal coating is important in Louisville because other than offering protection from damages in the UV rays, snow, and rain, it is a maintenance method that prolongs the life of asphalt used on the pavement. Sealcoating is beneficial for various reasons; for instance, it accelerates snow and ice melting. This prevents water from penetrating to the ground beneath the pavement and consequently resulting in damages like potholes.
Another benefit of seal coating is that it is cost-friendly, costing an approximate average of $0.13 per square foot. Using this method as maintenance regularly saves you money eventually because it reduces the cost of long-term repairs and extends the asphalt life instead of paying thousands for the new pavement to be installed. The application of a seal coat makes the pavement look new again.
Commonwealth paving uses various equipment when seal coating asphalt; a brush, spray, or squeegee. These are the tools that can be used depending on the technique you wish to apply. Some conditions ought to be met for the successful application of seal coats. The application should entail a minimum of two coats. For less than 24 hours, if the forecast shows that the temperatures are below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, then it is advisable not to apply then;
it requires a minimum of 50 degrees and rising. Do not apply if there have been rains within 24 hours before application. Finally, once the seal coat application is complete, there should be no vehicle traffic over the surface in less than 24 hours.

To ensure a successful application of seal coats, one needs to follow some tips. First, the grass that overhangs on the edges of the pavement needs to be trimmed. Seal coats require clean surfaces. Therefore, the pavement should be cleaned, and debris, dirt, and stones need to be removed.
A single oil primer coat is then applied after oil, and other petroleum marks are heat flushed from the surface. The sealant is then applied, and black beauty sand is added to promote adhesion to the sealant. Finally, the team cleans and covers any spots with chicken wire cracks. The surface is left for at least 24 hours before it can be used again.
There are specific qualities to look for in a seal coating contractor. The first step is to do your research. In a climate such as we have in Kentucky, finding the right contractor for the Louisville area is vital for long-term success.
The seal coating window is often narrow, thus it can delay finishing the job. Avoid the temptation to rush; seal coatings cured under improper conditions are liable to have inferior performance characteristics.

Asphalt seal coating not only beautifies your property but also protects your investment by extending the life of your pavement. Asphalt breaks down and oxidizes over time. By applying a protective “Sealcoat” to your pavement, you can maximize its life. The sealer acts as a barrier to repel water, salt, gas, oil, and damaging sunlight from the surface.

These compounds carry with them the potential to cause irreparable harm to asphalt surfaces that can only be fixed with major asphalt repair. Asphalt sealer is designed to take the wear so that your pavement does not. Contracting someone to perform an asphalt repair service is considerably more expensive, time-consuming, and disruptive than it would be to seal coat asphalt pavement before it becomes damaged.
