Benefits of SealCoating
Asphalt sealcoating seals small cracks that will eventually become large and keeps water from seeping into the base material. The black color of new asphalt sealcoat will improve the look of old and new asphalt. Sealcoating will increase the lifespan of asphalt hiding small cracks, patched areas etc. making pavement striping more visible.
Correct application of asphalt sealcoat will make your asphalt appear cleaner as rain will easily wash the dirt and debris from the non-porous surface. Asphalt sealcoat will protect it from sun and the harmful effects of petrochemicals like gas and oil.
Sealcoating asphalt will help fill surface voids reducing exposure to UV rays & oxygen as well as minimize the depth gas and oil will penetrate Sealcoating asphalt is like applying a water-proofing agent, reducing the rate water soaks into the asphalt.
Asphalt sealcoating will prevent water seepage and moisture from snow & rain, minimizing the damage caused by freeze and thaw cycles. Pavement striping such as fire-lanes and handicap parking look much better on asphalt with new sealcoating. Asphalt sealcoat gives a dark black color to asphalt drawing more heat from the sun
As the asphalt heats it will also become more pliable allowing it to withstand high traffic without cracking. Sealcoat will leave a clean, smooth surface making it much easier to keep clean saving you money. Sealcoat can aslo fill the voids in the surface of the asphalt, this will reduce the exposure to oxygen & UV rays and minimize the penetration of gas/oil into the asphalt. When applied correctly sealcoat also works as a waterproofing agent.
While the cost of applying asphalt sealcoat is only pennies per square foot the cost of repairing or replacing the asphalt can be very expensive. The penetration of moisture into asphalt can increase it's deterioration and distress. Asphalt sealcoat will seal the pavement and prevent oxidation and/or erosion of the top layer. Sealcoat will replace fine particles that are lost from the surface of older asphalt due to oxidation.
Sealcoat will resist petroleum products like oil, gasoline and diesel as well as chemicals and salts used for deicing which can break the bond of the liquid asphalt and aggregate. Sealcoat and asphalt are always based on the price of crude oil. Asphalt sealcoating costs only pennies per square foot compared to expensive repairs to your asphalt.
