Sealcoating, or pavement sealing, is the process of applying a protective coating to asphalt-based pavements to provide a layer of protection from the elements: water, oils, and U.V. damage. Sealcoating extends asphalt pavement life and can help reduce the friction commonly associated with asphalt pavement.
As a general guideline, you should seal every 3-5 years. We proudly use the most durable sealant and crack filler available on the market. The average life span of our work depends on a number of different factors, such as:
-
High vehicle traffic
-
Heavy-duty vehicles
-
Overhead vegetation
-
Harsh winter temperatures
-
Degrading (crumbling) surface
-
Scraping from snow plowing
-
Chains on tires
-
Chemical spills
-
Low spots that hold water
When we come to inspect and measure your parking lot,Or driveway, We can give you a better idea of how our services will last on your particular lot or driveway
We are a fully prequalified company with over 15 years of professional experience, the tools equipment, and knowledge to do the job right.
The carbon fiber seals master material we use, as well as our mix design, has undergone rigorous testing standards, and we do not cut corners when it comes to providing you with the highest quality workmanship in the greater Clark County.
As a family-owned business, we understand that you are interested in getting the lowest price. However, please keep in mind that there are many different ways to sealcoat, and many different types of sealcoating material.
It is very easy for a sealcoating company to cut corners on labor & material. When it comes to pavement maintenance, price and quality truly go hand in hand. We work hard to keep our prices as competitive as possible, but our number one priority will always be to use the highest quality, and longest-lasting, material. Please also consider these important factors:
-
All of our crack filling is done to Our Professional Specifications. We believe in cleaning your cracks out with rotary brooms &hand wire brooms before we fill them. This ensures that the new crack filler material will stay in place & not be negatively affected by rocks, debris, or vegetation. Beware of sealcoaters that do not blow out & clean pavement cracks before they fill them (instead, they will simply “overband” your cracks with material). Companies who just pour material into your cracks without properly cleaning them first are wasting your money.
-
Cleaning is the most crucial step in the sealcoating process, because it ensures that the sealer will adhere properly to your parking lot. We clean your parking lot using robust equipment – combination walk-behind blowers/rotary brooms, turbine blowers, and sweepers. Always check with a sealcoating company to see what kind of equipment they use to clean your parking lot.
-
We invest heavily in our equipment and utilize an advanced spray system, as well as application techniques. This allows us to guarantee a consistent application of material.
-
Our mix design does not cut corners. Always ask a sealcoating company for their mix design to ensure that they are not diluting their material with too much water. As us about our sealcoating process and the materials we use.

Asphalt cracks should be taken seriously by a property owner or manager and should be addressed as soon as possible. Crack filling is the first line of defense in protecting asphalt, and it is the best way for a property owner to save money in the long run. Left untreated, asphalt cracks can lead to more significant problems, like potholes. Once the subbase of your asphalt fails, you will be left with no choice but to spend thousands, and sometimes tens of thousands, of dollars to repair and re-pave your parking lot. Crack filling, on the other hand, is a comparatively cheap and easy option to protect your asphalt from further damage.
The most important thing you need to know about a contractor is their history.
-
How many years of experience have they had in this industry?
-
Can they point you to satisfied customers who can testify to the quality of their work?
-
Who supplies their materials and why?
Beyond their history, it’s very important to have an idea of how much your job will cost up front. Will the company give you a free estimate? Will they itemize their bid? Transparency is crucial. If a contractor does or says anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, look for a different contractor.
All asphalt sealers are NOT created equally! There are many different qualities of sealer and many different ways of preparing it. We proudly use Our acrylic pavement Sealer, due to its rigorous testing standards, consistent jet black color, and proven durability.
ALWAYS ask a sealcoating company for their mix design! Our mix design consists of sand, for added skid resistance, and premium latex, which reduces tracking and power steering marks. Specifically, for every 100 gallons of sealer, we add 20 gallons of water, 200 lbs. of sand, and 2-3% latex additive, per acrylic pavement manufacturer specifications.
This depends on the size and configuration of the project, how many bumper blocks and other obstacles there are, and how dirty the parking lot is. By using the most efficient sealcoating equipment and highly experienced professionals, we are able to complete projects of all sizes in a timely manner and within your deadline.
If you are unable to close your entire lot, we are able to barricade and seal the parking lot in sections.
No. The goal of crack filling is to prevent moisture from seeping down into the cracks and causing further damage. Crack filler will not make your cracks disappear and it will not always be flush with the surrounding asphalt. If your cracks are very deep, the material may settle down into the crack. This is normal and does not affect the integrity of the seal.
We stand behind all of our work with a one-year satisfaction guarantee on the material and workmanship. We are not responsible for damage during the warranty period that was caused by standing water, physical/structural damage, winter weather abuse (i.e. snowplows/over-sanding), tire chains, gas, oil, or chemical spills. Our guarantee is for our previously performed work only.
Sealcoating prevents asphalt surface oxidation by forming a tough protective outer skin. It also helps prevent damaging water penetration and protects your asphalt from the deteriorating effects of gasoline, oil, de-icers, and other harsh chemicals. Our acrylic pavement sealer provides a black finish and fresh, new appearance that will improve the image of your business/Home. Most importantly, sealcoating saves you money.
Your parking lot or home is an important investment that needs to be maintained. Sealcoating and crack filling your asphalt every few years will double, and many times triple, the life of your asphalt. It is significantly cheaper to sealcoat and crack fill a parking lot every few years than it is to pay huge sums to remove & replace neglected asphalt every 10-15 years.
It takes 60-90 days (or longer) for new pavement to rid itself of surface oils through oxidation and rain. To check this, spread some water on the surface. If the water does not bead up then it is ready to be sealed.
Your parking lot is the first thing that visitors see when they come to your property. A parking lot that shows signs of neglect will have a negative impact on your visitors before they even reach your front door. Unfortunately, asphalt deterioration is unavoidable. However, it can be slowed down significantly with routine crack filling and sealcoating.
In order to determine if you are due for sealcoating your commercial parking lot or home, ask yourself the following questions:
-
How old is your property surface? – If your asphalt is brand new, you do not need to sealcoat. By the time your lot reaches 6 months to a year old, you’ll want to start thinking about sealing the lot.
-
When did you last apply a sealcoat? – It is recommended that you apply a new sealcoat every three to five years. This will help preserve the surface of your asphalt while preventing far more expensive repairs further down the road.
-
Can you see deterioration? – Surface deterioration is another tell-tale sign that you need to apply a sealant as soon as possible. Even minor wear, such as small cracks or surface color change from black to grey, can be a sign it’s time to consider maintenance.

Weather is the most important factor when it comes to a durable, high-quality sealcoating project. There are multiple weather factors that must be taken into consideration to ensure that the sealer will dry properly. Sealcoating in less-than-ideal weather conditions sacrifices the integrity of the material, and your project will not last as long. Both air temperatures and pavement temperatures must be at least 60ºF and rising.
The most ideal weather conditions for sealcoating are 70ºF and rising, with direct sunlight and relative humidity below 60%. Other important factors are wind and sunshine. We do not schedule projects when rain is imminent, or if it has rained the night before. We strive to make sure your project is completed under the most ideal weather conditions, and we appreciate your cooperation.
If you fertilize any grass along your asphalt, please do not:
-
Fertilize for a week prior to sealcoating
-
Also, do not hose off the asphalt prior to our visit – the pavement must be completely dry.
-
Make sure any sprinkler systems are turned off, and that any trash pick-up or landscaping won’t interfere with our work.
-
Make sure any lawn mowing is put on hold until the sealer is completely dry – you do not want any grass getting stuck in wet sealer!
-
Finally, the work area will need to be cleared of all vehicles, equipment, or any other obstacles. You will need to make sure the appropriate people (employees, tenants, etc.) know that they will not have access to the parking lot while we are sealcoating it.
Yes, we take care of closing off the area to traffic and pedestrians so that they do not interfere with the sealer. However, you are responsible for notifying employees, tenants, and any other relevant persons of the work we will be doing ahead of time.
While we always make sure that the area is completely barricaded off with cones and caution tape, we are not responsible for any messes that are made as a result of your employees, customers, tenants, or any other third parties who disregard our cones and onto the wet sealer.
The amount of time it takes for the sealer to cure is based on humidity, temperature, and sunlight. For best results, we recommend waiting 24 hours (under ideal weather conditions) before you walk or drive on the area.
Yes, this is a temporary situation that occurs when new sealer is applied, especially on hot & humid days. After the sealer is completely cured (1-2 weeks) these marks will go away.
No, it is very important to sealcoat all the way up to the very edge of your pavement, and this means that sealer will get on the edge of your asphalt but never on your grass, concrete, or sidewalk.
No. While sealcoating will beautify your parking lot and extend the life of your asphalt by protecting it from damaging elements and harmful UV rays, it will not make a parking lot that is in very bad condition look like brand-new again. While sealcoating will provide an attractive black surface, it will not mask depressions, repairs, divots, and other surface blemishes (and any company who tells you it will is being dishonest!).
