There are many benefits to sealcoating the asphalt to your driveway or parking lot. Think of sealcoating more of as a preventative maintenance for your diveway or parking lot, similar to how you paint your home to keep the weather from deteriorating the wood. Another benefit of sealcoating, is that it helps protect the asphalt from the sun as well as the harmful effects of chemical spills such as oil and gasoline, both which are all too common on a driveway or parkinglot. Asphalt sealcoating fills surface voids, which reduces exposure to oxygen and UV rays and reduces the depth to which oil or gas can penetrate the asphalt. Sealcoating acts as a waterproofing agent, minimizing the rate at which water enters the asphalt. Sealcoating asphalt prevents the seepage of water and moisture from rain and snow, thus preventing damage from freeze thaw cycles which is a common reason your driveway or parking lot begins forming cracks or even worse, alligator cracks.

What should I do for cracks?

    All cracksealing will be done using a hot applied rubberized sealant product unless otherwise stated .  All structural cracks that are ¼ inch and larger will be sealed.  Surface cracks are not considered structural and will be filled in by the sealcoating process, as well as the smaller cracks.  Settling in cracks is normal and does not effect the integrity of the seal.  All cracks that are deeper than ½ inch will be filled and brought to within ½ inch of the surface in order to install the proper amount of sealant.
