Maintaining your asphalt driveway or parking lot properly can make it live three times as long. Sealcoating is another important aspect of proper maintenance of a driveway; it does more than making it look nice, it also protects against water, sunlight, chemicals, and more.

Asphalt pavement is made from aggregate, made from gravel and sand, and a binder/bitumen. As time goes on, this binder weakens by wear and oxidization; when this happens, your pavement ends up becoming brittle, cracks easily, and generally is not very nice to look at.
Asphalt cracks are a problem on their own, too- water can flow into the cracks, penetrating the base material and weakening it as a whole. Water in the base material can also cause problems during freeze-thaw cycles.
Sealcoating is protecting the binder by sealing it with an extra protective layer, or seal, on top of it. It’ll fill in surface blemishes and hairline cracks. Any cracks bigger than ¼” will be filled with crack sealant.
It’s recommended to sealcoat your asphalt every three years because:
Sealcoating your residential driveway is an investment that will pay off for you in both the short and long run. Sealcoating your driveway protects it from the elements, makes the asphalt last longer, and makes your home look better.
It’s a project that homeowners should look into completing, as it increases your house’s value. First impressions are incredibly important, and what better way to make a good first impression than a great-looking driveway?
Here at Indiana Seal Tech, we provide commercial asphalt sealcoating services plans to help your parking lot keep itself looking nice and fresh, as well as increasing its lifespan and reducing ownership costs. Our parking lot sealcoating services can relieve you of your worry of having to go over your budget on physical repairs or repairing your asphalt over time.
Potholes can be a serious danger to civilians and cars, causing people to trip and fall and damaging cars. If not repaired, potholes will grow in size, cause your asphalt to fail, and will increase in repair cost as time goes on. Depending on the size and season, we’ll patch your pothole with either a “cold” or “hot” patch.
