Driveway Sealing Beech Croft

Stop Expensive Repairs Before They Start

Your driveway takes a beating from New York weather. Every winter brings freeze-thaw cycles that crack unsealed asphalt. Every summer brings UV rays that dry it out and make it brittle.

Seal coating creates a protective barrier that keeps water out and flexibility in. You’re looking at 3-5 more years before you need major repairs or replacement. That’s thousands of dollars staying in your pocket.

The difference is obvious immediately. Fresh seal coating makes your driveway look new again while protecting what’s underneath. Your property value goes up, your maintenance headaches go down, and you get peace of mind knowing you made the smart financial move.

Asphalt Sealing Process NY

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we clean your driveway completely. Oil stains get treated, debris gets removed, and any vegetation growing through cracks gets cleared out. Most companies skip this step, but proper preparation is what makes sealcoating actually stick and last.

Next, we fill significant cracks with hot rubberized crack filler. Small surface cracks will be sealed by the coating itself, but anything larger needs individual attention to prevent water infiltration.

Then we apply the sealcoating with professional equipment that ensures even coverage and proper thickness. We typically apply two thin coats rather than one thick coat because it cures better and lasts longer. The entire process usually takes 4-6 hours depending on your driveway size, and you can walk on it the same day, drive on it the next.

What's Included in Every Job

Every seal coating job starts with thorough surface preparation and cleaning. We’re not just rolling sealcoat over dirt and debris like some contractors do. Your driveway gets pressure washed, oil stains get treated with commercial degreaser, and loose material gets removed completely.

Crack filling is included for cracks up to half an inch wide. We use hot pour rubberized filler that moves with your asphalt instead of cracking out the first winter. Larger structural issues get addressed separately, but we’ll identify them during our initial assessment.

You get two coats of commercial-grade sealer applied with professional spray equipment. This isn’t the brush-on stuff from the hardware store. Our sealer contains more solids, better adhesion promoters, and sand for traction. The result is a coating that actually protects your asphalt instead of just making it look black for a few months.

How often should I seal coat my driveway in New York?

Most driveways in New York need seal coating every 2-3 years, depending on traffic and weather exposure. If your driveway is starting to look gray instead of black, or if you can see small cracks forming, it’s time. Waiting too long means you’ll need crack filling and possibly patching before sealcoating, which costs more. The key is staying ahead of major damage rather than reacting to it.

What's the best time of year for seal coating?

Late spring through early fall works best, but the specific timing depends on weather conditions. We need at least 48 hours of dry weather after application, and temperatures should be above 50 degrees during application and overnight. Early fall is often ideal because temperatures are moderate and there’s less chance of unexpected rain. We monitor weather forecasts closely and will reschedule if conditions aren’t right for proper curing.

How long before I can drive on my sealed driveway?

You can walk on your driveway within 4-6 hours, but wait 24-48 hours before driving on it. The exact time depends on temperature, humidity, and thickness of application. Cooler temperatures and high humidity slow curing time. We’ll give you specific timing based on weather conditions the day of your job. Driving on it too early can leave tire marks and damage the fresh coating.

Should I seal coat over existing cracks in my driveway?

Small hairline cracks can be sealed over, but anything wider than a quarter-inch should be filled first. Sealcoating alone won’t stop water from getting through larger cracks, and water infiltration is what causes the real damage to your asphalt base. We include crack filling up to half-inch wide in our standard service. Larger cracks or structural issues need separate repair work before sealcoating will be effective.

How much does professional seal coating cost compared to DIY?

Professional sealcoating typically costs 2-3 times more than DIY materials, but the results last 3-4 times longer. Store-bought sealers are thinner, harder to apply evenly, and don’t include proper surface preparation. Most DIY jobs need redoing within a year. Professional application includes cleaning, crack filling, proper equipment, and commercial-grade materials. When you factor in longevity and results, professional application actually costs less per year of protection.

Will seal coating fix drainage problems or major cracks?

Sealcoating protects good asphalt but won’t fix structural problems like poor drainage or major settling cracks. If you have standing water, large cracks, or areas where the asphalt is breaking apart, those issues need repair work first. Sealcoating over major problems just hides them temporarily. We’ll identify any structural issues during our assessment and explain what needs repair work versus what sealcoating can handle.
