What Proper Sealing Actually Does

Your asphalt isn’t just fading—it’s slowly falling apart. Every crack lets water seep deeper, every winter freeze makes it worse, and every oil drip stains permanently into unprotected surfaces.

Quality seal coating changes everything. You get a barrier that actually stops water penetration before it starts the damage cycle. The rich black finish returns, making your property look maintained and professional again.

Here’s what matters most: properly applied sealcoating can double your pavement’s lifespan. That cracked, gray driveway that’s been bothering you? It transforms into a smooth, protected surface that handles Long Island weather without breaking down. Your neighbors notice. Your property value reflects it. And you avoid the headache of major repairs down the road.

East Quogue Sealcoating Experts

We Know Long Island Asphalt

All Purpose Paving has been protecting driveways and parking lots across Long Island for years. We understand what coastal weather does to asphalt—the salt air, the freeze-thaw cycles, the heavy rains that find every weak spot.

You’re not getting a crew that learned the trade somewhere else. We’ve sealed thousands of driveways right here in East Quogue and surrounding areas. We know which materials hold up and which preparation steps you can’t skip.

When you call us, you’re working with contractors who’ve seen every type of asphalt problem Long Island throws at pavement. That experience shows in how we prep your surface and apply the coating.

Our Seal Coating Process

How We Protect Your Pavement

First, we clean your asphalt completely. Oil stains, debris, vegetation growing in cracks—everything gets removed because sealcoating only works on properly prepared surfaces.

Next comes crack filling. Those hairline cracks that seem harmless? They’re entry points for water damage. We fill them with commercial-grade crack filler that flexes with temperature changes instead of breaking apart.

Then we apply the sealcoating itself. We use professional-grade sealer that’s mixed for Long Island conditions, not the thin stuff you see at hardware stores. Two thin coats applied with commercial equipment give you even coverage and proper thickness.

The final step is curing time. Your newly sealed surface needs 24-48 hours to fully cure, depending on temperature and humidity. We’ll tell you exactly when it’s safe to drive on and what to expect during the curing process.

What's Included in Professional Sealing

You get thorough surface preparation, not just coating over existing problems. We power wash, remove oil stains, and fill cracks before any sealer touches your asphalt.

The sealcoating itself is commercial-grade material designed for Long Island’s climate. It’s not the watered-down version that fails after one winter. This sealer penetrates properly and creates a flexible barrier that moves with your pavement.

We protect your landscaping, walkways, and garage doors during application. Clean lines, no overspray, no sealer where it doesn’t belong. When we’re done, your driveway looks professionally maintained, not like someone just splashed black coating around.

You also get realistic expectations about timing and results. We’ll tell you exactly how long to stay off the surface, what weather conditions we need for proper application, and how long you can expect the protection to last.

Most driveways in East Quogue need seal coating every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific conditions. Heavy traffic, direct sun exposure, and harsh winters can shorten that timeline. If your asphalt is starting to look gray instead of black, or you’re seeing small cracks appear, it’s time to seal. The key is staying ahead of major damage—it’s much cheaper to seal a driveway in good condition than to repair one that’s already deteriorating. We can assess your specific situation and recommend the right timing for your property.
Professional sealcoating uses commercial-grade materials that are significantly thicker and more durable than store-bought versions. We also have the equipment to apply it evenly and at the right thickness. DIY sealing often results in streaky application, thin coverage, and premature failure. The biggest difference is surface preparation—we properly clean and repair cracks before sealing, while most homeowners skip these crucial steps. Professional application typically lasts 2-3 times longer than DIY attempts, making it more cost-effective in the long run.
You can usually walk on sealed asphalt within 4-6 hours, but you need to wait 24-48 hours before driving on it. The exact timing depends on temperature, humidity, and air circulation. Hot, dry, breezy days cure faster than cool, humid conditions. We always give you specific timing based on the weather forecast and your driveway’s conditions. Rushing this process ruins the seal coating—the surface might look dry but still be soft underneath, leading to tire marks and premature wear.
Small cracks can be filled and sealed, but larger damage needs repair first. Seal coating isn’t a magic fix for structural problems—it’s a protective barrier for sound asphalt. We’ll assess your driveway’s condition and tell you honestly what can be sealed and what needs repair. Cracks wider than a quarter-inch, areas with significant settling, or sections with major deterioration require proper repair before sealing. Trying to seal over major damage just wastes your money and gives you false hope.
We need temperatures above 50°F and no rain in the forecast for at least 24 hours after application. High humidity and cool temperatures slow the curing process, while extreme heat can cause the sealer to dry too quickly and not penetrate properly. Wind helps with curing but can also blow debris onto the wet surface. We monitor weather conditions closely and will reschedule if conditions aren’t right. It’s better to wait for proper weather than to apply sealer that won’t perform correctly.
Seal coating typically costs a fraction of what you’d pay for asphalt replacement—usually around $0.15-$0.25 per square foot versus $3-$5 per square foot for new asphalt. For an average driveway, that’s roughly $150-$400 for sealing versus $3,000-$6,000 for replacement. Regular seal coating every 2-3 years can extend your asphalt’s life from 15-20 years to 25-30 years. The math is simple: spending a few hundred dollars every few years saves you thousands in premature replacement costs.
