What Proper Sealing Actually Does

Your asphalt stops looking worn down and starts looking like it’s supposed to. The rich, black finish doesn’t just look better—it creates a barrier that keeps water from seeping through cracks and causing real damage underneath.

You won’t be dealing with those expanding cracks that turn into potholes every winter. The sealcoating blocks oil stains from soaking in and prevents the freeze-thaw cycle from tearing your pavement apart.

Most importantly, you get years more life out of your existing asphalt instead of facing an expensive replacement. That’s the difference between spending a few hundred dollars now versus several thousand later.

Asphalt Sealing Contractors

We Know Long Island Asphalt

We’ve been handling seal coating projects across Long Island for years. We understand how the salt air, harsh winters, and heavy traffic affect your pavement differently than other parts of the country.

You’re not getting a crew that learned the trade somewhere else and hopes it works here. We’ve seen what happens when asphalt isn’t properly maintained in this climate, and we know exactly how to prevent those problems.

Our team uses professional-grade materials designed for Northeast conditions, not the basic stuff you’ll find at home improvement stores. When we seal your driveway or parking lot, it’s built to handle what Long Island weather throws at it.

Sealcoating Process Kismet

Here's How We Handle It

First, we clean your asphalt surface completely. Any dirt, debris, or vegetation gets removed because sealcoating won’t bond properly to a dirty surface. We also fill any cracks that could let water through.

Next comes the actual application. We use professional spray equipment or squeegees depending on your surface type, applying an even coat that covers every inch. The material needs to cure properly, so we time everything around weather conditions.

You’ll need to stay off the surface for 24-48 hours depending on temperature and humidity. Once it’s fully cured, you have a protected surface that should last 2-3 years before needing another application. We’ll let you know exactly when to expect us back.

What's Included In Our Service

Every seal coating job starts with proper surface preparation. We’re not just spraying sealer over whatever’s there—we clean, repair, and prep the surface so the coating actually bonds and lasts.

You get crack filling for minor cracks as part of the process. Oil stains get treated with primer so the sealer adheres properly. We edge around all borders and obstacles by hand to ensure complete coverage.

The sealcoating material itself is commercial-grade, not the watered-down version some contractors use to cut costs. We apply it at the right thickness—not too thin where it won’t protect, not too thick where it might peel. Most Kismet properties need resealing every 2-3 years, and we’ll remind you when it’s time.

Most driveways in Kismet need seal coating every 2-3 years, but it depends on traffic and weather exposure. If your asphalt is starting to look gray instead of black, or you can see small cracks forming, it’s time. Don’t wait until you have major cracks or potholes—that means water has already gotten underneath and caused damage. The key is staying ahead of the problem, not reacting to it after your pavement is already failing.
Late spring through early fall works best, when temperatures stay above 50 degrees for at least 48 hours after application. We avoid sealing during the hottest part of summer because the material can dry too quickly and not bond properly. Early fall is often ideal because temperatures are moderate and there’s less chance of unexpected rain. We always check the weather forecast before scheduling and will reschedule if conditions aren’t right for proper curing.
You can usually walk on the surface after 4-6 hours, but keep vehicles off for 24-48 hours depending on temperature and humidity. Cooler, humid conditions take longer to cure. We’ll give you specific timing based on the weather when we do your job. Don’t rush it—driving on seal coating that hasn’t fully cured can leave tire marks and damage the finish. It’s better to wait an extra day than to ruin the job and have to start over.
Small cracks get filled as part of our prep work, but larger cracks need proper repair first. Seal coating isn’t a crack repair solution—it’s a protective coating that goes over sound asphalt. If you have major cracks or areas where the base is failing, we’ll let you know what needs to be fixed before we can seal. Trying to seal over significant damage just wastes your money because the problems will come right back through the coating.
Rain on uncured seal coating can wash away the material or leave permanent marks and streaks. That’s why we monitor weather forecasts carefully and only start jobs when we have at least 24 hours of dry weather predicted. If unexpected rain hits before the coating cures, we’ll assess the damage and redo any affected areas at no charge. This is why choosing an experienced contractor matters—we know how to time jobs properly and stand behind our work when weather doesn’t cooperate.
If your asphalt base is still solid, seal coating costs a fraction of replacement and adds years to your pavement’s life. A typical driveway seal coating might cost a few hundred dollars, while replacement runs several thousand. The key is timing—seal coating works great as preventive maintenance, but once your asphalt has major structural problems, replacement becomes the better option. We’ll be honest about what condition your pavement is in and whether sealing makes financial sense for your situation.
