Protection from UV, water, and oil. Two coats, dry in 24 to 48 hours.

Sealcoating extends pavement lifespan and heads off the cracks and potholes that lead to expensive repairs.
Fresh sealcoat brings back that deep black color and clean look, boosting curb appeal instantly.
The coating blocks UV rays that dry out and crack your asphalt over time.
Sealcoat keeps water from soaking into the asphalt and weakening the base underneath.

On a big lot, the coating is the fast part. The time goes into getting the surface ready, because sealcoat bonds to clean asphalt and to nothing else. Skip the prep and the coating peels, taking the whole job with it. That is why we spend the time on it.
First the lot is swept and washed. Loose stone, dirt, and debris come off the whole surface, with extra attention around curbs, islands, and drains where it piles up. Washing takes off the fine dust a broom leaves behind. Then the cracks are blown out so the filler has a clean edge to grab.
Every crack is filled with hot-applied crack filler before any coating goes on. A coat of sealcoat laid across an open crack hides it without closing it, and water keeps finding its way to the base. Filling first is what makes the sealcoat worth doing. Cracks along curbs and around drains get the same treatment as the ones in the open lot. More on that on our crack filling page.

How sealcoating works
Hot-applied crack filler goes into every crack before sealing, to keep water away from the base under the lot. Long cracks are filled end to end.
Crack filling
Cracks around storm drains are filled and worked by hand, so the coating meets the drain edge cleanly once it goes down. Water heads for the drain, so that edge matters.
Parking lot repairA lot that people use every day can't close for two days. So we split it into sections and seal one while the rest stays open. Each section dries in 24 to 48 hours before cars go back on it, and then the next section is coated. Most of the lot stays usable the whole time.
The order is planned before we start. An office might want the back rows done first and the spaces by the entrance done after hours. A church wants the lot open by its next service. A school wants the work around drop-off and pickup, or on days when classes are out. We work that order out with you during the quote, not on the morning of the job.
On the open areas, the sealcoat is flood-coated with a squeegee machine in two coats. Edges, curbs, and islands are finished by hand. Two coats give an even layer across the whole surface. Once a section is dry it gets restriped, since the coating covers the old lines.
Before the first coat, we map which sections close in what order, so entrances and the most-used rows stay open the longest. We go over the plan with you first.

Asphalt sealcoating
Each section dries in 24 to 48 hours. Once it is dry, our crew puts the lines back down, with layout changes if you want them, and the section reopens.
Striping in ClintonSealcoat protects asphalt that is still sound. It slows the wear on the surface and brings back the dark finish. It cannot fix a failed base, and it won't hold together a lot that is already breaking up into potholes and alligator cracking. Sealing over that kind of damage only hides it for a while.
When the photos you send show failed areas, we come out and look before we quote. Those spots get cut out and repaired before any coating. If the damage is spread over most of the lot, new asphalt is the better spend, and we will say so. Repairs, sealcoat, and striping each get their own line item on the quote.
Timing matters too. New asphalt waits 6 to 12 months for its first coat. After that, a lot should be resealed every 1 to 2 years, with the cracks filled each time. Sealing on schedule is what keeps a sound lot from turning into a repair job. Homeowners can follow the same schedule on a driveway, and we seal those too.
How many there are and how long they run, since every one is filled with hot-applied filler before coating.
Potholes, sunken spots, and alligator cracking that need repair first. If we see them, we come look in person.
How many stalls, ADA spaces, and markings will need restriping once the sealcoat dries.

Sealcoat bonds to clean asphalt. Dirt, dust, and loose stone left on the surface keep it from sticking, and it can peel.
Every time. Cracks are blown out and filled with hot-applied crack filler first, so water stops reaching the base.
Yes. Large lots are sealed in sections. One section dries while the rest of the lot stays in use, then the crew moves on.
Yes. Sealcoat covers the old lines, so the lot is restriped once it dries. Our own crew does it, and it is a good time to fix the layout.
Every 1 to 2 years once the asphalt has cured. Lots that see heavy daily use belong at the short end of that range.
After 6 to 12 months, once the asphalt has cured.
Yes. Driveways get the same prep and two coats as a lot. We seal driveways in Olde Towne, Traceland, Lakewood, Northside, and across Hinds County.
Sealcoating is protection, not repair. It will not fix larger cracks or potholes, but it does keep new ones from forming.
Sealcoat typically dries in 24 to 48 hours. We tell you exactly when it is safe to walk or drive on.
Usually, yes. Send photos and the rough size of the area, and we will put together a free written quote. If we see damage that needs repair, we will come look first.
One coat leaves thin spots that wear through early. The second coat fills them in and evens out the protection across the whole surface.
