What Are the Benefits of Asphalt Sealcoating?
While sealcoating asphalt doesn’t fix structural damage, it does play a key part in maintaining high traffic surfaces and keeping pavement in better condition between repairs. When completed at the right intervals by our commercial sealcoating contractors, this process helps extend how long your asphalt lasts and improves overall site appearance.
Investing in asphalt sealcoating:
- Protects against UV rays that dry out and weaken pavement
- Helps prevent water from seeping into small surface openings
- Reduces the risk of cracks forming or spreading
- Improves resistance to oil, fuel, and chemical spills
- Enhances curb appeal with a darker, uniform finish
- Makes cleaning and general upkeep easier
What Time of Year Should I Schedule Sealcoating?
Parking lot sealcoating and other related commercial jobs should be scheduled during warmer months when conditions allow for proper application and curing. In most regions, late spring through early fall offers the best window, typically from April to October. During this time, both air and surface temperatures are more consistent and suitable for the process.
For best results, temperatures should be at least 50°F and rising, with an ideal range between 60°F and 85°F. These conditions help the sealcoat bond properly and cure evenly. Scheduling within this range also reduces the risk of delays caused by cold weather or moisture, helping ensure a smooth, consistent finish.
