Here are just a few of the many reasons why a professionally applied asphalt sealcoat is a valuable investment to prolong the life of your asphalt in the Twin Cities metro area.
Help prevent asphalt from cracking by investing in sealcoating.
Once cracks start to appear in an asphalt surface, they can be much more expensive to fix than simply having a sealcoat applied. Rather than waiting to repair problems, focus on preventing future damage or cracks from ever appearing. That means applying a sealcoat in the proper weather conditions and allowing it time to set properly.
Sealcoating helps to preserve and protect asphalt surfaces.
In addition to preventing cracks, surfaces that receive a proper sealcoating are also easier to preserve in the long run than those without. Typically, this is because sealcoat prevents staining from oil and other liquids and also makes the surface smoother for sweeping and cleaning. Sealcoating also helps to inhibit oxidization and the damage caused by the summer sun’s intense UV radiation and high temperatures.
Regular upkeep is key when it comes to proper asphalt maintenance.
On average, once you put sealcoat on an asphalt surface, it should be good to go for about three years. After that, make sure to have fresh sealcoating performed on a regular basis to ensure the asphalt surface stays safe and protected. Before you do that, though, take the time to properly maintain and evaluate your asphalt surface for any new damage you may not have previously noticed.
Because successful asphalt sealcoating relies so much on the weather (temperatures consistently above 55° F, duration of direct sunlight, wind, precipitation, etc.), the best time to have your sealcoating project performed is from May until the end of September. Those are the perfect months to ensure the sealcoat has the time, temperatures, and other required conditions to cure properly and provide the best protection possible.
