What Is Sealcoating?
Sealcoating creates a protective seal over asphalt, helping to prevent damage caused by water, climate conditions, oxidation, and more. Sealcoating is a valuable tool that helps property owners in Maryland, Delaware, Southern Pennsylvania, and Northern Virginia rejuvenate their asphalt and refresh the aesthetics of the surface. If you want to bring your paved surfaces back to life, don’t hesitate to reach out to our contractors and learn more about how our sealcoating services can help your needs.

Reactive vs. Proactive Maintenance
Reactive Maintenance
Preventative maintenance is always superior to reactive maintenance, here’s why:
- It’s a crisis-based approach
- It reflects a neglect of work responsibilities
- It causes unexpected downtime
- It produces delays in service
- It costs more long-term
Preventative Maintenance
Rather than waiting to respond to a problem after it’s already happened, preventative maintenance can keep problems from happening at all. In addition to saving time and money, property owners can benefit from preventative maintenance because:
- It’s a preparation-based approach
- It reflects an organized execution of work responsibilities
- It maximizes the pavement’s lifespan
- It helps you provide a detailed report of facility management metrics
The Process
Sealcoating helps to reduce repairs and replacement costs and maximize the lifespan of your pavement. There are steps we follow every time we perform a sealcoating service.
Prepare
We remove debris and other obstructions from the surface and clean it to ensure the sealcoat material adheres correctly. We also repair any damaged areas.
Edge and Tape
We use tape and other tools to seal off any areas that don’t need sealcoat treatment.
Apply the Sealcoat
Depending on the type and size of your pavement, we’ll apply a cool-tar-based or asphalt-based sealcoat using a spray or squeegee system.
Coat Application
To ensure proper adhesion and a smooth surface, we apply a sealant layer on top of the sealcoat material.
Dry and Cure
We allow the sealcoat to dry and cure for 12 to 36 hours.
Striping and Markings
We apply new lane markings, parking lines, and more once the curing period is over.
