Before & After
Benefits of Driveway Sealcoating
Extends Asphalt Driveway Life
Professional asphalt driveway sealcoating prevents pavement from hardening and crumbling, adding years to your driveway and protecting your investment.
Attractive Curb Appeal
Driveway sealing creates a clean, uniform finish over the pavement — especially when cracks and holes are properly filled beforehand — giving your home a polished, well-maintained look.
Rochester Weather Protection
Sealing for residential driveways in Rochester, NY is essential — our harsh winters mean road salts, freeze-thaw cycles, and moisture can quickly deteriorate unprotected pavement. Sealcoating forms a barrier against all of it.
Cost-Effective Driveway Maintenance
Driveway sealcoating is one of the most affordable ways to resurface and protect existing pavement — far less expensive than full replacement and a smart long-term investment for any homeowner.

Check the Weather. Select a period when dry weather is expected for at least 48 hours — ideal conditions for driveway sealcoating in Rochester, NY.
Barricade the Driveway. Restrict all vehicle and foot traffic to the area during the sealing process to ensure an even, uninterrupted application.
Clean the Surface. Do a general cleaning of the pavement by sweeping and power washing to remove all dirt, debris, and vegetation.
Treat Oil Spots & Cracks. Oil spot prime all oil spots and apply a liquid sealer to deep cracks before the main sealcoating application.
Patch Holes & Potholes. Fill deep holes with asphalt patching compound, packing firmly to create a flat, solid surface ready for driveway sealing.
Apply the Seal Coat. Apply liquid seal coat with a squeegee or sprayer over the entire driveway surface according to product instructions.
Curing Time
Protect the area for at least 36-48 hours for the chemical to set and cure. Apply when temperatures are expected to stay above 55°F to ensure proper curing. Watch out for leaves and debris that might degrade the coating before it has set.
Application Tips
Add Sand for Traction. Sand can be mixed with the sealcoating product to create a non-slippery surface and provide more consistency — especially helpful on sloped residential driveways.
Pressure Wash First. Use a pressure washer to thoroughly clean the driveway, clearing all cracks of debris and removing any vegetation before driveway sealing begins.
Fill Larger Cracks First. Seal coating products can cover cracks up to 1/8 inch wide. Larger cracks should be filled with rubberized crack sealer before applying driveway sealcoating.
Prime Oil Stains. Oil stains should be treated with an oil stain primer prior to applying the seal-coating product for proper adhesion and a uniform finish.
Level Potholes Separately. Don't expect seal coat to fill potholes. Apply asphalt or pothole fill product to level these areas before sealcoating your driveway.
Apply Thin, Multiple Coats. Two or more thin coats are better than one thick coat. Apply subsequent coats perpendicular to the preceding coat for best coverage.
Blend Buckets for Consistency. Before finishing one bucket, blend in the next. There can be subtle color differences between batches, and this method helps maintain a uniform appearance across the entire driveway. Be careful during application — sealcoating products will stain adjoining concrete surfaces.
