What Proper Seal Coating Actually Does

Your driveway stops looking worn and starts looking like new again. That faded, cracked asphalt transforms into a smooth, rich black surface that makes your property stand out for the right reasons.

More importantly, you’re not dealing with water seeping into cracks anymore. No more worrying about freeze-thaw damage turning small cracks into expensive potholes. The protective barrier we apply keeps moisture out and prevents the kind of deterioration that leads to costly repairs.

You get years added to your asphalt’s life. Most properly sealed driveways last 2-3 times longer than untreated surfaces. That means you’re looking at protection for your investment, not just a cosmetic fix that wears off in a season.

Smiths Point Sealcoating Company

We Know Long Island Asphalt

All Purpose Paving has been handling asphalt maintenance across Long Island for years. We understand what salt air, harsh winters, and summer heat do to your pavement.

You’re not getting a crew that learned the trade somewhere else and hopes it works here. We’ve seen every type of asphalt problem this area throws at property owners. From coastal moisture issues to freeze-thaw cycles that crack poorly maintained surfaces.

Our team uses commercial-grade sealers and proper application techniques because we’ve learned what works and what doesn’t in this climate. When you call us, you’re working with contractors who show up when scheduled and deliver results that last.

Asphalt Sealing Process

How We Handle Your Seal Coating

First, we clean your asphalt completely. Power washing removes dirt, debris, and any loose material. We fill cracks and repair damaged areas because sealcoating over problems doesn’t fix them.

Next comes the actual sealing. We apply commercial-grade sealer using professional equipment that ensures even coverage. No missed spots, no thin areas that fail early. The material goes on thick enough to provide real protection but not so heavy that it takes forever to cure.

Weather matters, so we time everything right. Temperature and humidity affect how the sealer cures. We don’t rush the process or work in conditions that compromise results. Most driveways are ready for light foot traffic within 24 hours and vehicles within 48-72 hours, depending on conditions.

What's Included in Our Service

You get complete surface preparation, not just sealer slapped over existing problems. We handle crack filling, minor repairs, and thorough cleaning before any sealer touches your asphalt.

The sealer itself is commercial-grade material designed for Long Island’s climate. It resists salt damage, UV rays, and temperature extremes. We’re not using bargain products that save money upfront but fail when you need protection most.

Application includes proper edge work and attention to drainage patterns. Water needs to flow off your driveway, not pool in areas where sealer might be too thick. We also protect your landscaping, walkways, and garage floors from overspray or drips.

Most driveways in our area need seal coating every 2-3 years. The exact timing depends on traffic, weather exposure, and the condition of your asphalt. If you can see aggregate (stones) showing through in high-traffic areas, or if the surface looks gray instead of black, it’s time. Waiting too long means you’re looking at repairs before sealing, which costs more than staying on schedule with regular maintenance.
Late spring through early fall works best, with ideal conditions being temperatures between 50-85°F and no rain in the forecast for 24-48 hours. We avoid sealing during Long Island’s humid summer days when possible, as high humidity slows curing. Fall is actually excellent timing because the sealer has months to cure before winter weather tests it. Avoid sealing too late in the season when overnight temperatures drop below 45°F.
Small cracks get filled as part of our prep work, but larger cracks and damaged areas need proper repair first. Sealer isn’t a structural fix – it’s protection for sound asphalt. If we just seal over significant cracks, you’ll see them again within months as the sealer settles. We’ll assess your driveway’s condition and handle necessary repairs before sealing so you get results that actually last.
You can walk on most sealed surfaces within 12-24 hours, but vehicles need to stay off for 48-72 hours minimum. Hot weather speeds curing, while cool or humid conditions slow it down. We’ll give you specific timing based on weather conditions and the sealer we’re using. Rushing this part ruins the job – sealer that gets disturbed before it’s fully cured won’t provide proper protection and may need to be redone.
Rain within the first 24 hours can damage or wash away fresh sealer, which is why we check weather forecasts carefully before starting. If unexpected rain hits before the sealer cures, we’ll assess the damage and reapply affected areas at no charge. This is why we don’t take chances with questionable weather – it’s better to reschedule than deal with a compromised job that won’t protect your asphalt properly.
If your asphalt is structurally sound, seal coating costs about 10-15% of replacement while extending life by years. Even factoring in multiple seal coating applications over time, you’re saving thousands compared to premature replacement. However, if your driveway has extensive cracking, potholes, or base failure, replacement might make more sense. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether sealing is the right investment for your specific situation.
