FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
It’s recommended to seal coat your asphalt driveway every 2–3 years, depending on traffic and weather exposure. Regular seal coating prevents cracks, fading, and early deterioration caused by UV rays and moisture.
The ideal time for seal coating is during spring or summer, when temperatures are consistently above 10°C and the surface is dry. This ensures the sealant cures properly and provides maximum protection.
Typically, your driveway will be ready for light foot traffic within 12 hours and vehicle use after 24–48 hours. However, drying time can vary based on humidity and temperature.
Seal coating is designed to protect and preserve your asphalt surface, not repair major damage. Small cracks can be filled before applying the seal coat, but larger cracks or potholes may require additional asphalt repair first.
Avoid parking on your driveway for 48 hours, keep heavy equipment off for a few days, and clean oil or chemical spills promptly. Regular sweeping and resealing every few years will help maintain a rich, dark finish and extend the life of your driveway.
