Your asphalt stops deteriorating. That’s the bottom line.

When we apply professional-grade seal coating to your driveway or parking lot, you’re looking at 3-5 additional years of life from your pavement. The cracks stop spreading. Water stops seeping through and causing foundation problems.

Your property looks sharp again. That fresh, dark finish doesn’t just protect against Long Island’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles—it makes your entire property look well-maintained and valuable. You’ll notice the difference immediately, and so will everyone else.

Most importantly, you avoid the nightmare of premature asphalt replacement. We’re talking about saving thousands of dollars by investing hundreds today. The math is simple, but only if the seal coating is done right.

Asphalt Sealing Process Ridge

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we clean your asphalt completely. This means removing all dirt, debris, oil stains, and loose material. Most contractors skip this step or rush through it. We don’t, because seal coating won’t bond properly to a dirty surface.

Next, we fill any cracks and repair problem areas. If your asphalt has issues, we address them before applying the seal coat. This prevents future problems and ensures a smooth, professional finish.

Then we apply the seal coating using professional equipment, not brushes or squeegees. We use high-quality materials designed specifically for Long Island’s climate. The application is even, thorough, and built to last.

Finally, we protect the fresh seal coat while it cures. We’ll let you know exactly when it’s safe to drive on and what to expect during the drying process. Most driveways are ready for light traffic within 24-48 hours, depending on weather conditions.

Most driveways in Ridge need seal coating every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific conditions. Heavy traffic, direct sun exposure, and harsh winters can accelerate wear. If your asphalt is starting to look gray instead of black, or if you’re seeing small cracks appear, it’s time for seal coating. The key is being proactive—it’s much cheaper to seal coat regularly than to replace damaged asphalt. We can assess your driveway’s condition and give you a realistic timeline based on what we see, not a generic recommendation.
Late spring through early fall works best here in Ridge. We need consistent temperatures above 50°F and no rain in the forecast for at least 24 hours after application. Summer is ideal because the seal coat cures faster and bonds better in warm weather. We avoid winter months entirely—cold temperatures prevent proper curing and can ruin the application. Spring scheduling fills up fast, so if you’re thinking about seal coating, it’s smart to plan ahead. We’ll work with you to find the best window based on weather conditions and your schedule.
You can usually walk on the surface within 4-6 hours, but we recommend waiting 24-48 hours before driving on it. Full curing takes about a week, but you don’t need to avoid the driveway that long. Weather makes a big difference—hot, sunny days speed up the process, while cool or humid conditions slow it down. We’ll give you specific timing based on the forecast when we do your job. The key is being patient with that first 24-48 hours. Driving on seal coating too early can leave tire marks and damage the finish.
Seal coating alone won’t fill significant cracks—that’s a separate step we handle before applying the seal coat. Minor hairline cracks might get filled by the seal coating material, but anything you can stick a quarter into needs proper crack filling first. We use hot-pour crack filler for larger cracks and cold-pour material for smaller ones. This prevents water from getting underneath your asphalt and causing bigger problems. If we skip the crack filling step, you’ll just have sealed cracks that continue to grow. Proper crack repair before seal coating is essential for long-lasting results.
Most residential driveways in Ridge run between $200-600 for professional seal coating, depending on size and condition. Larger driveways or those needing significant prep work cost more. We price based on square footage, surface condition, and how much crack filling or repair work is needed. We’ll give you an exact quote after seeing your driveway—no ballpark estimates that change later. The investment typically pays for itself by extending your asphalt’s life and preventing costly repairs. Cheap seal coating often means corners are being cut, which ends up costing you more in the long run.
You can buy seal coating materials at home improvement stores, but the results usually aren’t comparable to professional application. DIY seal coating often fails within a year because of improper surface prep, wrong material choice, or poor application technique. Professional equipment applies the material more evenly and at the right thickness. We also know which products work best for Long Island’s specific climate conditions. If your driveway is valuable to you and you want results that last, professional application is worth the investment. DIY might save money upfront, but you’ll likely need to redo it sooner.
