What Is Sealcoating, and Does Your Driveway Need It?

Asphalt Driveway Seal-Coating

​Asphalt driveways typically need sealcoating on a regular basis, to protect the material from fading and cracking. If you've invested in a new residential driveway, you want to ensure you do everything possible to keep it in good repair, as even a short drive poured with an affordable asphalt can cost several hundred if not even a few thousand dollars. Protecting asphalt from early damage will ensure you protect your financial investment, and avoid unnecessary repairs and replacement.

Sealcoating refers to the application of a type of coating that is meant to protect asphalt, covering over pits and pores and adding a layer of defense against corrosive snow-clearing salt, automotive fluid, and the like. This coating will reflect sunlight and allow moisture to drain away, which also protects asphalt from premature damage.

To better understand what is sealcoating and how often the application of this sealant is needed for your home's driveway, note some general information about asphalt, including how it's made and what can damage the material. You might also note some essential tips for keeping asphalt in good repair, and how to tell when it's time to have it resurfaced or outright replaced.

What Are the Benefits of Driveway Asphalt Paving?
Many homeowners today are selecting asphalt paving for their home's driveway and even exterior walkways and patios, versus standard concrete. Asphalt has many advantages over other driveway paving materials and is often one of the most affordable options available for homeowners today.

The cost of an asphalt driveway typically averages between $2 and $7 per square foot and will depend on the property's current condition as well as the amount or thickness of asphalt you have installed. Various aggregates can also be added to asphalt's surface by asphalt paving companies, for increased traction or a more pleasing overall appearance, and these might also add to that cost.

Before you decide if the cost of hiring asphalt paving contractors is a good investment for your home, note some advantages of asphalt over concrete, how asphalt is maintained over the years, and how to determine the best amount or thickness of asphalt to add for your home's driveway.

What is the Best Time of Year to Pave a Driveway

​When you look out at your driveway that is worn down, cracked, or still made of gravel, you wonder what the best time of the year to pave it is. There is a good reason why driveways can only be paved under certain weather conditions.

The best time of the year to pave or resurface your driveway is going to be during the late spring and throughout the months of summer. There is such a thing as a best temperature to lay asphalt or concrete, and that’s when the outside weather is warmer. It makes the mixture that you are using more manageable to work with, and while it has the time to cool properly, it’s going to do so more evenly giving you a smoother surface.
