Now that summer is here in the Twin Cities, the weather is perfect for a fresh asphalt sealcoating. Although there are many practical, technical reasons to consider sealcoating, such as increasing pavement lifespan and protecting asphalt from water damage, there are also aesthetic reasons to consider it this season.
Here are just a few reasons to consider sealcoating, both to improve the overall safety and appearance of your asphalt pavement.
Property Value: In addition to improving the general maintenance and safety of your asphalt pavement, sealcoating also protects overall property value. Purchasing and installing asphalt tends to be a somewhat expensive process, so make the most of your investment by keeping it safe. When the time comes to evaluate your property or home, you will be grateful for that extra layer of protection!
Rich Coloring: Sealcoat will maintain the rich, black color of your asphalt for an extended period, whereas unsealed asphalt tends to fade more quickly over time. In addition to looking cleaner, fresher, and more inviting, black asphalt also has safety benefits. For example, if your lot is lined with yellow or white paint, these colors contrast better and look clearer against a rich, black surface.
Prevents Cracking: When it’s smooth, black, and fresh, asphalt both looks and works exactly as intended. Using sealcoating enhances the appearance of your asphalt parking lot, driveway, pathway, or bike trail, and prevents safety and aesthetic hazards such as cracks or chips.
