Whether it’s your home, your body, your car or even your driveway or parking lot, most everything benefits from preventative maintenance. When it comes to your driveway or parking lot, it’s incredibly important to perform proper maintenance to ensure your asphalt will last for many years to come. Many times if you wait until your asphalt looks dated and begins to crack, it’s too late. Thankfully, Seal King is more than ready to handle all of your sealcoating needs. Whether you have a small driveway or a large parking lot, we can offer our sealcoating services to keep your asphalt in tip top shape.
Benefits of Sealcoating
- Seals small cracks – Over time small cracks will appear in your asphalt. If not addressed these small cracks can turn into larger cracks allowing water to seep through the asphalt to the base material. With sealcoating these small cracks can be filled in to protect the surface asphalt as well as to protect the base material.
- Makes your asphalt look new again – While this is mostly for aesthetic reasons, sealcoating can make your paved surfaces look brand new. Whether you’re interested in sealcoating for your home or office, there’s no arguing increasing the curb appeal of your home or office.
- Protect your asphalt from the sun – Sealcoating helps to protect your paved surfaces from the harmful effects of the sun. UV rays can significantly damage your asphalt, and sealcoating helps to serve as a type of “sunscreen” for your pavement.
- Protect your asphalt from chemicals – Asphalt at its core is just a series of chemicals. For this reason when oil or other chemicals are dropped on asphalt it can become compromised. Asphalt that is not properly sealcoated will simply absorb the oil or chemical, which can lead to degradation of your pavement. Sealcoating acts as a barrier to prevent these chemicals from harming your paved surfaces.
- Leaves a smooth surface – Sealcoating leaves a smooth surface that is easy to clean and ideal for painting parking lines and other markers on asphalt.
- Inexpensive – Sealcoating is much less expensive than replacing asphalt and helps to extend the life of your paved surfaces.
