Driveway Sealcoating in Whitney, PA

Asphalt driveways are investments, and like any investment, they require proper care.

This simple, yet little-known step is essential to keeping your asphalt surface in good condition, and we offer services for residential and commercial clients alike.

What is Sealcoating?

There’s a misconception that sealcoating is a structural repair. This is not the case. It’s a necessary process that involves applying a new layer of asphalt to the existing surface to protect it from the elements. In addition to protecting and preserving the structural integrity of your pavement, the sealcoating treatment also gives your surface a face-lift. Once done, your asphalt will have a smooth, uniformly black colored surface that will add to the attractiveness of your home’s exterior.

When to Have Your Driveway Sealcoated

After installing a driveway, the last thing you want to do is spend more on a repair a few years later. That’s why scheduling asphalt sealcoating service routinely is so important.

The general rule of thumb is to schedule the service when your driveway begins to have a “dry appearance,” which is every three to four years. Your asphalt may need sealed more often if it sees heavy traffic or significant exposure to the weather. For your convenience, we will recommend a sealcoating schedule to keep your driveway looking pristine for years to come.

The process usually takes a few hours. Once it’s complete, don’t drive on the surface for about two to three days, as this will allow the sealer the time needed to cure properly. Keep in mind that the sealer will need more time to cure if it rains.

Keep Your Driveway in Good Condition

There are many reasons to sealcoat your driveway. The number one reason is to prevent the need for driveway resurfacing.
