Sealcoating
What Is Sealcoating?
Sealcoating involves applying a protective layer to paved surfaces to prevent water, oil, and UV damage. Wondering if your pavement would benefit from a sealcoating service? Contact us to discuss the details.
How Frequently Is Sealcoating Required?
The frequency with which sealcoating should be performed depends on a few factors:
The pavement’s age and condition
How often the pavement is used
Local climate and weather conditions
Reactive vs. Proactive Maintenance
Reactive Maintenance
Reactive maintenance is less effective than proactive maintenance because:
- It’s a crisis-based approach
- It reflects a neglect of work responsibilities
- It causes unexpected downtime
- It produces delays in service
- It costs more long-term
Proactive Maintenance
We recommend proactive maintenance because it addresses minor issues before they turn into major issues. Other benefits of this approach include the following:
- It’s a preparation-based approach
- It reflects an organized execution of work responsibilities
- It maximizes the pavement’s lifespan
- It helps you provide a detailed report of facility management metrics
The Process
Prepare
We remove all debris and other obstructions from the surface so the sealcoat material applies properly. We repair any cracks, potholes, and other imperfections as needed.
Edge and Tape
We seal off areas that don’t need to be sealcoated with tape or other materials.
Apply the Sealcoat
We use a spray or squeegee system to apply a coal-tar or asphalt-based sealcoat material.
Coat Application
We apply a layer of sealant to make sure the sealcoat sticks and has a smooth surface.
Dry & Cure
We let the sealcoat dry for 12 to 36 hours.
Striping and Markings
We apply new lane markings, parking spot lines, and other pavement markings as needed.
