Benefits of Sealcoating

Asphalt sealcoating is an important part of maintaining your pavement's appearance and protecting it from damage during harsh winters. Sealcoating is a process that adds a barrier layer to your existing asphalt surface and protects it from the elements by providing a tough outer coating, acting as a water repellent, and preventing any water penetration into your existing asphalt paving. This process improves the overall appearance of your pavement, making it look clean and new again with its dark charcoal black color. The seals are applied only to the top layer of your asphalt pavement to create a surface that will last up to five years with proper maintenance.

Non-Slip Surface

The surface of an asphalt pavement can become less slip resistant over time as a result of exposure to traffic and environmental elements. A pavement sealer that contains sand can help restore traction to an older asphalt surface. It also helps prevent water from collecting on the pavement, which reduces its ability to stay free from puddles. In addition, sealer contains chemicals that repel water so it beads on the surface rather than soaking into the pavement. This is especially important during inclement weather when sidewalks, parking lots or driveways need to be kept dry for safety purposes.
