What Proper Sealing Does for You

Your driveway stops looking like it’s falling apart. The cracks quit spreading, water stops seeping in, and that fresh black finish makes your property look maintained again.

More importantly, you’re not staring down a $15,000 repaving bill in three years. Quality seal coating extends your asphalt’s life by doubling or tripling how long it lasts before needing major work.

The difference between sealed and unsealed asphalt in Point o Woods is dramatic. Our coastal climate hits driveways hard with salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and UV exposure that breaks down unprotected surfaces fast. Proper sealing creates a barrier that handles what Long Island weather throws at it.

Point o Woods Sealcoating Company

We Know Long Island Asphalt

We’ve been protecting driveways and parking lots across Long Island for years. We understand what works here and what doesn’t.

The difference is in knowing how coastal conditions affect asphalt and using the right materials for our climate. We’re not weekend warriors with a squeegee – we’re the crew property owners call when they want it done right the first time.

Point o Woods properties deserve better than cheap sealer that peels off in six months. We use commercial-grade products and proper application methods that actually last.

Asphalt Sealing Process

How We Seal Your Driveway Right

First, we clean your driveway thoroughly. Any oil stains get treated, debris gets removed, and the surface gets prepped properly. Skipping this step is why most seal coating jobs fail early.

Next comes crack filling if needed. We’re not just painting over problems – we address what’s there so the sealer can do its job. Small cracks get sealed before they become big expensive ones.

Then we apply the sealer with professional equipment that ensures even coverage. No streaks, no thin spots, no missed areas. The coating goes on smooth and cures to a uniform finish that looks professional and lasts. You’ll know when to stay off it, and we’ll let you know exactly when it’s ready for traffic again.

What's Included in Our Service

You get thorough surface preparation, crack treatment where needed, and professional-grade sealer application. We handle both residential driveways and commercial parking lots with the same attention to detail.

The sealer we use is designed for Long Island conditions. It handles temperature swings, resists salt damage, and provides the UV protection your asphalt needs to stay flexible and intact. This isn’t hardware store sealer – it’s the commercial-grade material that actually protects your investment.

We also make sure you understand the curing process and when it’s safe to drive on. Most problems happen because people don’t know when the surface is truly ready for traffic. We give you clear guidance so your new seal coating performs exactly as it should.

How often should I seal coat my driveway in Point o Woods?

Every 2-3 years for most driveways, but it depends on traffic and exposure. A driveway that gets heavy use or sits in full sun all day might need attention every two years. One that’s lightly used and mostly shaded can often go three years between coats. The key is watching for signs that the sealer is wearing thin – when water stops beading on the surface and starts soaking in, it’s time. Don’t wait until you see new cracks forming, because by then you’re already behind on protection.

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

Late spring through early fall when temperatures stay above 50 degrees and you can count on no rain for 24-48 hours. We typically recommend May through September for best results. The sealer needs warm, dry conditions to cure properly, and Long Island’s unpredictable spring weather can make April tricky. Fall applications work great too, as long as we’re not pushing too close to frost season. Summer is actually ideal despite the heat – the sealer cures faster and stronger in warm weather.

Can you seal coat over existing cracks in my driveway?

Small cracks get filled as part of the process, but larger ones need proper repair first. Hairline cracks and minor surface issues are normal and get addressed during prep work. However, if you have significant cracking or areas where the asphalt is failing, sealing over it won’t solve the underlying problem. We’ll let you know honestly what needs attention before sealing and what can be handled as part of the job. The goal is a seal coating that actually protects and lasts, not just covers up problems temporarily.

How long does seal coating take to dry completely?

Plan on staying off it for 24-48 hours depending on weather conditions. It might look dry in a few hours, but the sealer needs time to cure completely before it can handle vehicle traffic. Hot, sunny, breezy conditions speed things up. Cool, humid, or overcast weather slows the process down. We’ll give you specific timing based on conditions the day we do your driveway. Walking on it is usually fine after 4-6 hours, but cars need to wait longer to avoid tire marks or damage to the fresh coating.

Is seal coating worth it compared to just replacing the driveway?

Absolutely, if your asphalt is still in decent shape. Seal coating costs a fraction of replacement and can double your driveway’s remaining life. A typical driveway replacement runs $10,000-$20,000 in Point o Woods. Quality seal coating every few years costs maybe $500-$1,500 depending on size. The math is simple – protect what you have rather than replace it prematurely. However, if your driveway is already heavily damaged with major cracking or base failure, sealing won’t fix structural problems. We’ll tell you honestly whether sealing makes sense or if you’re better off planning for replacement.

What happens if it rains right after you seal coat my driveway?

That’s why we check the weather forecast carefully before starting any job. If rain hits before the sealer has cured (usually within the first 4-6 hours), it can wash away the coating or leave permanent marks and streaks. We don’t start jobs when rain is likely within 24 hours. If unexpected weather comes through, we’ll assess the damage and redo any areas that didn’t cure properly at no charge to you. This is part of doing the job right – we take responsibility for timing and weather planning so you get the results you’re paying for.
