Sealcoating protects asphalt from oxidation, UV exposure, and moisture. Scheduling at the right time ensures optimal curing and durability.
Common Mistakes
- Applying sealcoat too soon after paving can trap moisture.
- Sealing in cold or wet weather prevents proper adhesion.
- Delaying maintenance allows cracks and oxidation to spread.
- Using poor-quality sealers leads to early surface wear.
Best Scheduling Practices
- Sealcoat every 2–3 years or when the surface shows fading.
- Perform during dry conditions above 50°F for best curing.
- Allow 24–48 hours of drying time before reopening to traffic.
- Hire certified contractors who use commercial-grade materials.
Properly timed sealcoating maximizes surface protection and keeps your parking lot looking clean and professional year-round.
