About Sealcoatings
Introduction
Understanding commercial property and infrastructure maintenance often includes overlooked aspects, such as sealcoatings. The preservation and extension of the properties life, such as parking lots and driveways, is only one of its numerous advantages. This comprehensive guide will explore the intricacies of sealcoatings, elucidate the process of application, and highlight its numerous benefits for commercial properties. As a business owner or property manager seeking professional services like a sealcoating company or driveway sealcoating contractors, this guide will prove to be an invaluable resource.
The Vital Role of Sealcoatings
Whether it is a public parking, a commercial complex driveway, or any other asphalt surface, sealcoatings provide a protective layer that prolongs the life of these properties. This protective surface can resist the harmful effects of UV-rays, chemicals, water penetration and heavy traffic. Moreover, sealcoatings restore the original black appearance of asphalt which enhances the aesthetic appeal of the property.
The Sealcoating Process
A reputable driveway sealcoating contractor, or a sealing driveway company, applies sealcoating in a meticulous and methodical approach to ensure optimal results. Firstly, an extensive cleaning of the surface is carried out to eliminate debris and contaminants. Sealcoat, a liquid that is either sprayed or applied using a squeegee, is then evenly spread on the surface to form a protective barrier. After application, it requires up to 48 hours to dry and cure completely before the visitors can use the area again.
Benefits of Sealcoating
Investing in sealcoatings involves several benefits, apart from simply extending the life of the paving. One of the substantial advantages includes value retention. Commercial properties are a significant investment, and routine maintenance, like sealcoating, helps prevent deterioration and unfavorable appearances which may depreciate its value.
Costs Involved
Considering the asphalt sealcoating cost is an essential factor when planning to sealcoat a commercial property. Typically, the overall price is influenced by various factors, such as the size of the area, the condition of the existing asphalt, and the geographical location. However, the long-term savings that result from reduced maintenance expenses and prolonged pavement life, far outweigh the initial cost of sealcoating.
Picking a Sealcoating Company
Identifying a reliable sealcoating company or driveway sealers contractors can be challenging, especially with the multitude of choices available. To ensure quality service, it is advised to look for companies that offer detailed quotes, have positive customer reviews, and have ample experience in the sector. It’s also essential to ensure they are insured and licensed for your protection.
Conclusion
A professional application of sealcoatings can visibly elevate the appearance and longevity of your commercial premises. While the volume of information can be daunting, this guide provides a fundamental understanding of the process, benefits, and aspects to consider when embarking on reviewing a sealcoating company.

The Flint and Pere Marquette Railroad platted the village in 1879 and set aside property for a new county government after the previous courthouse in Farwell burned down. The Harrison post office opened on January 27, 1880 and was named after former president William Henry Harrison. The new community incorporated as a village in 1885 and later as a city in 1891.
