Asphalt Sealcoating Protects the Life of Your Pavement
Your pavement is the most susceptible component of your property to environmental changes. The natural elements, weather fluctuation, and wear and tear that it suffers from vehicles, cause deterioration, making asphalt sealcoating essential for preserving this surface. Installing a driveway or parking lot can be a significant investment and one of the most cost effective ways to protect that investment is through periodic maintenance and sealcoating.
The rain (water seeping in) and sun are your pavement’s worst enemies. The change in the weather will cause oxidation, hardening asphalt and making it turn brittle. Oxidation happens when oxygen in the air and water, break down the asphalt, making it more susceptible to damage. Over time, it loses flexibility, causing it to crack as temperatures fluctuate and when vehicles pass over it. Asphalt sealcoating helps prevent oxidation and erosion while providing an attractive, smooth black surface.

The sealcoating process involves the application of a coal tar or asphalt sealant (We use GemSeal PolyTar — Find out why here) to pavement to provide protection. It creates a waterproof barrier and prevents moisture from penetrating the pavement and getting beneath the surface, which in turn, can cause cracking, potholes, alligatoring, etc.
Asphalt sealcoating is recommended, as part of a regular maintenance plan, between 6 to 12 months after applying new pavement, and then re-seal every 3-4 years as needed.
