Why Should I Sealcoat My Driveway?

Sealcoat your driveway because you want to:

• Keep your driveway looking great: Sealcoating can refresh the look and wear of driveways. That can make your driveway look like new, enhancing your home’s curb appeal.
• Prevent oxidation damage: Sealcoating provides a protective barrier that minimizes oxidation, which can cause driveway cracks, potholes, and other damage. Plus, sealcoating will keep water, chemicals, and other elements out while making driveways more resilient.
• Have a safe, easy-to-maintain driveway: Sealcoating provides a smooth surface with an even texture. That can mean fewer accidents and an easier time sweeping, power washing, and maintaining driveways.

How Does Sealcoating Help My Driveway?

Sealcoating addresses the fading, brittleness, small cracking, and the scaly look of fatigued and damaged pavement. With sealcoating, your driveway will be:

• More resistant to weather, water, and chemical damage
• Less vulnerable to oxidation, fading, and fatigue
• Safer and more attractive

How Often Should I Sealcoat My Driveway?

Every 2 to 3 years, it’s usually smart to sealcoat driveways. If your driveway gets more traffic or exposure to the elements, however, you may need to sealcoat more often to give your pavement the protection it truly needs.

How Long Will It Take to Sealcoat My Driveway?

Most sealcoating jobs can be finished within a day, but the length of the process will depend on the condition of your driveway. If there are deeper cracks or other more significant damage, hot crack sealing and/or asphalt repair may be needed.

With Shamblin Paving, you will get an upfront project timeline, set up around your schedule, so you know exactly what to expect in terms of how our team will need to prepare your driveway, apply sealcoating, and clean up when we are done.

When Can I Drive on My Driveway?

Generally, driveways with new sealcoating can be driven on within about 48 to 72 hours of the process being finished. Be aware that this is highly dependent on humidity and temperature. Our team will let you know the specific waiting time for your sealcoating, based on project-specific factors.
