Benefits Of Sealcoating

​

Slows oxidation
Asphalt is made up of binder, oils, rock, stone, and gravel. The binder holds these components together. When new asphalt is laid it is normal for oils to oxidize out which will make the pavement stronger. Experts suggest sealing your asphalt 90 days after the asphalt is laid to slow down the oxidation. After the first application of sealer, it is then suggested to seal your asphalt every 2-3 years after that. There are many things that contribute to oxidation: sunlight, rain, air, and chemicals being the most common.

If you’re looking to list any type of property for sale a fresh coat of asphalt sealer will also help to increase your property value.
