Asphalt is held together by a petroleum binder that starts aging from the day it is installed. UV rays break it down, water works into open areas and vehicle fluids soften it. Sealcoating adds a deep black protective layer that takes the wear instead of the pavement below.
We apply commercial grade sealer by squeegee and spray after thorough preparation. The surface is cleaned, edges are trimmed, oil spots are primed and cracks are filled first. Poor preparation causes the flaking and early fading seen on rushed jobs. We do not skip it.
Timing matters as much as material. New asphalt should cure for 6–12 months before its first coat. After that, most surfaces need sealcoating every 3–5 years depending on traffic and exposure. We explain what your pavement needs and when the next coat should be considered.
