Owning a home is an investment, and maintaining its exterior is essential for both aesthetics and functionality. One often-overlooked aspect of home maintenance is the care of driveways and pavements. Over time, exposure to harsh weather conditions, UV rays, oil spills, and regular wear and tear can deteriorate the surface of your driveway, leaving it cracked, faded, and prone to further damage. This is where residential sealcoating services come in.
Sealcoating is the process of applying a protective layer of sealant to asphalt surfaces such as driveways, pathways, and parking lots. This sealant acts as a barrier, preventing water, oil, and UV rays from penetrating the surface and causing damage. It not only restores the original black color of the asphalt but also enhances its durability and longevity.
We'll start, where appropriate, by trimming any grassy edges, removing the grass and dirt, allowing us to seal the edges of your driveway where deterioration usually starts...excess material will wash away with several rain storms.
Next, we'll thoroughly clean your driveway using a combination of wire brushes, power brooms or power blowers. Cracks and joints will be cleaned as required.
Oil spots etc., will be treated with special primers, to ensure proper adhesion of the sealer and also to rid the asphalt of substances that severely damage it.
If necessary, heavily alligatored areas will be double sealcoated or treated with a special, extra thick material to help cover and stabilize base failure areas of your asphalt. While not a guaranteed, permanent solution, it is a time buying procedure.
Structural cracks are filled with a hot rubberized material and the excess is squeegeed off. The cracks are then covered with a fine sand like material to prevent tracking. Please note that while we do the best possible hot crack filling, stress imposed on your driveway (weather, heavy equipment, etc.) may cause the cracks to reopen and/or migrate. We recommend an annual inspection and touch-up as required between full sealcoating services. There may be a nominal charge for this service.
All asphalt surfaces are sealed using our proprietary EcoAmigo asphalt sealer. It will penetrate the surface and replenish the oils necessary to keep the pavement flexible. The sealer also protects against the sun's ultraviolet light, freeze, thaw, oil, gas and road salt. An MSDS sheet is available upon request.
We barricade your driveway with banner tape for 24-48 hours.
Sealcoating creates a waterproof barrier that shields your driveway from rain, snow, and ice, preventing water penetration and the formation of cracks and potholes.
Seal coating gives asphalt surfaces a fresh, jet-black appearance, enhancing the overall aesthetics of driveways, parking lots, and roadways.
By extending the lifespan of asphalt surfaces and minimizing the occurrence of cracks and deterioration, property owners can avoid costly maintenance projects and allocate resources more efficiently.
