Durable Surfaces You Can Depend On

It depends on the condition of the existing pavement. A professional assessment is recommended to determine if an overlay or complete removal and replacement is necessary. Factors such as the condition of the base, drainage, and structural integrity of the existing pavement will be evaluated to determine the best course of action for your specific project.

It is generally recommended to sealcoat your driveway or parking lot every 2-3 years, depending on the amount of traffic and weather conditions. Sealcoating helps protect the pavement from damage caused by UV rays, water, and chemicals, and extends its lifespan.

Sealcoating offers several benefits, including protection against oxidation, UV rays, water penetration, and chemicals. It also enhances the appearance of the pavement, provides a smooth surface for easier cleaning, and helps extend the lifespan of the pavement, saving you money on costly repairs or replacements.

While DIY sealcoating kits are available, it is highly recommended to hire a professional paving and sealcoating company for the best results. Professional sealcoating ensures proper preparation, application, and curing for long-lasting and effective protection of your pavement.

Sealcoating typically takes about 24-48 hours to cure, depending on weather conditions such as temperature and humidity. It’s important to avoid any traffic, heavy objects, or standing water on the newly sealcoated surface during the curing process to ensure the best results.

The duration of a paving project depends on various factors such as the size of the area, complexity of the project, and weather conditions. A small driveway may take a day or two, while a larger parking lot may take several days or more. Your paving contractor will provide you with an estimated timeline based on your specific project.

Regular maintenance is key to extending the lifespan of your pavement. Avoiding heavy loads, sharp objects, and harsh chemicals on the surface, and keeping it clean from dirt, debris, and standing water will help preserve its integrity. It’s also recommended to schedule regular inspections and maintenance with a professional paving and sealcoating company to address any issues early on.
