Why Seal Your Driveway or Patio?
Sealing the driveway or patio is like an investment that every homeowner should do. Your driveway gets protection from pesky vehicle fluids, UV rays and even winter ice through sealing. Moreover, sealing can extend your pavement’s lifespan up to 30 years.
Some more reasons why you should seal your driveway or patio are:
- Protect against UV Rays and Water Damage: Driveway sealant is a UV rays and waterproofing agent. UV rays, over time, can corrode the driveway, and sun rays can dry out the patio surface. On the contrary, water can deteriorate your driveway by seeping into the porous surface. Sealing saves your driveway from all these damages.
- Prevent Expensive Repairs: Without coating, your home driveway will be directly exposed to sun rays, winds or ice. All these can leave it vulnerable to damage and cause alligators, fatigue cracking, or other damage. The easiest way to prevent these issues is to seal the coating.
- Protects Against Vehicle Traffic: Your driveway can start to wear out due your car’s regular driving up and down on it. Both cracked and broken asphalt damage can take place on the driveway. But if you seal your driveway it will withstand as much car and foot traffic as necessary.
- Aesthetic Looking: Seal coating will improve your driveway’s appearance and provide a more refreshing and appealing aesthetic look. However, the types of seal coating you choose will determine how glossy, fresh, or apparent your driveway will be.
- Easier Maintenance: A sealed driveway’s smooth finish makes your cleaning process easier. With a hose or broom you can easily sweep away dirt, debris, mildew and others. Moreover, sealed driveway isn’t exposed to water damage risk.
Our Sealing Process
Sealing protects your driveway, increases its durability, and improves your property’s value and aesthetic appeal. Following a few simple steps, we seal your driveway:
- Initial Cleaning: We evaluate your driveway surface’s current condition. Then, we clean the surface with hand steel brooms, rotary brooms, or commercial sweepers.
- Sanding: After driveway cleaning, we re-sand to ensure proper maintenance of your block paving. We check and fill the gaps between blocks that have worn out over time. Moreover, we repair potholes, fill cracks, and replace severely damaged patio areas.
- Sealing: In the final step, we prepare the sealant’s proper mixture for your pavement needs. Then, we apply one or two coats of sealer to get long-lasting results. Finally, prior to leaving, we clean up all of your project’s all areas.
Sealant Options
The sealant types we use for sealing our client’s valuable driveways and patios are:
Water-Based Sealants: One of the newer sealants on the market is water-based sealers. These sealants contain clay, latex, and polymers. This sealant type is highly effective in oil or gas spills.
Acrylic Sealants: Acrylic sealers are durable, UV-resistant, and environmentally friendly. This sealant dries quickly and helps to maintain the driveway’s color.
Longevity and Maintenance
Driveway sealing is important to maintain and extend your driveway’s lifespan. It protects your patio from weather and other things. Proper driveway sealing usually lasts 2 – 5 years.
However, seal coating isn’t a permanent solution. But it can extend your driveway’s lifespan by preventing water from seeping into the concrete.
Sealant quality is important to ensure its longevity. That’s why we partner with Resiblock, a brand that provides top-tier sealants that ensure maximum protection and durability.
Maintaining Block Stability
To ensure the driveway block’s structural stability we replenish the sand properly in the joints between blocks. If we find the sand level is low, we ensure paving’s stability through reapplying the jointing sand. Then we sweep the sand perfectly into the joints and compact it.
Blocks can move over time due to inadequate sand and it can lead to instability. In the driveway sealing, we lock the sand perfectly in place, maintaining your patio’s structural integrity and preventing erosion.
