What Proper Seal Coating Delivers

Your driveway stops looking worn and neglected. That rich, dark finish returns, making your property look well-maintained again.

More importantly, you’re protecting what you’ve already invested. Seal coating creates a barrier against water, oil, and chemicals that would otherwise seep into your asphalt and cause expensive damage.

You get 3-5 more years from your current driveway instead of facing a $5,000+ replacement. The coating handles Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles and summer heat, preventing the cracks and deterioration that turn small problems into major expenses.

Strongs Neck Sealcoating Company

We Know Long Island Asphalt

We’ve been protecting driveways and parking lots across Long Island for years. We understand how our climate affects asphalt and when conditions are right for seal coating.

You’re not getting a crew that learned the trade somewhere else. We’ve seen what works here and what doesn’t, from the salt air near the coast to the temperature swings that crack poorly maintained surfaces.

We show up when scheduled, use professional-grade materials, and explain exactly what we’re doing and why.

Asphalt Sealing Process

Here's How We Seal Your Driveway

First, we clean your driveway thoroughly. Any oil stains, debris, or loose material gets removed because seal coating only works on clean asphalt.

Next, we fill any cracks or holes. There’s no point sealing over damage that will just get worse. We make sure the surface is solid before we coat it.

Then we apply the seal coating evenly using professional equipment. We’re not rolling it on with a brush from the hardware store. The coating goes on smooth and consistent, covering every inch of asphalt.

You’ll need to stay off the driveway for 24-48 hours depending on weather. After that, you’ve got a protected surface that looks new again.

What's Included in Our Service

You get complete surface preparation, which most companies skip. We clean, repair, and prep your driveway so the seal coating actually bonds properly and lasts.

We use commercial-grade sealer that’s designed for Long Island weather. It’s not the thin stuff you see peeling off driveways after one winter. This coating penetrates and protects.

The service includes crack filling for minor damage and edging around your garage, walkways, and landscaping. We leave your property clean and protected, not just coated.

How often should I seal coat my driveway in Strongs Neck?

Every 2-3 years for most driveways, depending on traffic and weather exposure. If your driveway faces south or gets heavy use, you might need sealing every 2 years. Driveways with less traffic and good drainage can go 3 years between applications. The key is not waiting until you see major cracking or fading. By then, you’re doing damage control instead of prevention.

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

Late spring through early fall when temperatures stay between 50-85 degrees for at least 48 hours. We avoid sealing during Long Island’s humid summer peaks because the coating needs proper curing time. Spring and early fall give you the best conditions – warm enough for proper application but not so hot that the sealer dries too quickly. We also avoid any period when rain is forecast within 24 hours.

How long does seal coating take to dry completely?

You can walk on it after 4-6 hours, but keep cars off for 24-48 hours minimum. Long Island’s humidity can extend drying time, especially in summer. We recommend waiting the full 48 hours before driving on it, even if it looks dry. The coating continues curing for several days after application, and early traffic can leave permanent marks or cause premature wear.

Can you seal coat over existing cracks in my driveway?

Small cracks get filled as part of our prep work, but major cracking needs repair first. Seal coating isn’t a fix for structural problems – it’s protection for sound asphalt. If your driveway has cracks wider than a quarter inch or areas where the base is failing, we’ll recommend repairs before sealing. Coating over major damage just hides the problem temporarily and wastes your money.

Is seal coating worth it compared to driveway replacement costs?

Absolutely. Seal coating costs a fraction of replacement and can extend your driveway’s life significantly. A typical driveway replacement in Strongs Neck runs $4,000-$8,000 or more. Professional seal coating costs hundreds, not thousands, and proper maintenance can delay replacement by 5-10 years. Even if you seal coat every 2-3 years, you’re still saving thousands compared to premature replacement.

What happens if it rains shortly after seal coating application?

Rain within the first 4-6 hours can damage or wash away the coating, which is why we check weather forecasts carefully before starting. If unexpected rain hits during the curing period, we’ll assess the damage and reapply if necessary at no charge. This is why we only seal when conditions are right – not just when it’s convenient. Proper timing protects both your investment and our work quality.
