Every year, homeowners invest significant amounts of money to enhance the aesthetics of their homes. Surprisingly, one often overlooked area is the driveway. Your driveway plays a crucial role in your home’s landscaping, serving as the initial impression visitors get.
With our crews stationed in Reno, protect your driveway from the elements. Sun, rain, and snow contribute to the deterioration of driveways. Seal coating is the solution, preventing oxidation caused by the sun’s harmful UV rays.
Sunlight can make the asphalt harder, leading to brittleness, and sealcoating significantly decelerates this process.
Sealcoating provides a protective layer for your driveway, saving you money over time, much like regularly painting your house. Seal coating every 2-3 years ensures that your driveway stays robust, serving as an appealing entrance to your home.
I just installed a new driveway, how long should I wait to seal coat it?
Industry standards recommend waiting one year or going through one winter before seal coating a new driveway.
How often should I seal coat my driveway?
Industry standards recommend every two years, allowing the sealer to wear away before resealing the driveway.
What is a fillable crack?
A fillable crack is anything between ¼ of an inch to 2 inches wide and no more than 3 inches deep.
I just had my lawn fertilized and mulch delivered; will this create an issue with the sealer?
We recommend power washing your driveway thoroughly several days before sealing to prevent chemical reactions with the fertilizer and mulch, causing discoloration.
What time of year is best for seal coating my driveway?
The Spring, Summer, or Fall weather here in Reno Nevada works best – anytime is suitable as long as the ground and air temperature are 50+ degrees.
My driveway has oil stains, will the sealer cover these?
Wash the area with oil stains several days before we arrive. We apply a primer to prevent oil stains from bleeding through, although some may still bleed through despite precautions.
Do you clean my driveway before you seal coat it?
We use a high-powered blower to remove leaves and loose debris. Additionally, we edge back the grass with a weed whacker before applying the sealant.
