Asphalt surfaces, whether driveways or parking lots, are a major investment. Protecting them with regular sealcoating maintenance is an effective way to extend their lifespan and minimize expenses. At Maintain It All, we believe in proactive care to keep your asphalt in top condition. Here are five key ways sealcoating saves you money over time.
Over time, asphalt is exposed to harsh elements such as UV rays, rain, snow, and fluctuating temperatures. These factors can lead to cracks, potholes, and extensive damage. Sealcoating acts as a protective barrier, preventing the formation of cracks and minimizing wear and tear.
Cost-Saving Benefit: Addressing minor issues with sealcoating early is far more affordable than repairing extensive damage or replacing large sections of asphalt.
Sealcoating significantly slows the deterioration of asphalt by protecting it from oxidation and other environmental factors. This preventive care keeps the surface durable and functional for years, delaying the need for costly replacements.
Cost-Saving Benefit: Regular sealcoating can extend the life of your asphalt by up to 50%, reducing the frequency of major investments.
Water is a leading cause of asphalt deterioration. When it seeps into cracks, it can erode the foundation and cause structural problems. Sealcoating provides a waterproof layer that prevents water from penetrating the surface, reducing the risk of foundational damage and freeze-thaw cycles.
Cost-Saving Benefit: Avoid the high costs associated with foundational repairs and drainage fixes by sealing out water.
Sealcoating makes asphalt surfaces smoother and more resistant to stains, spills, and debris buildup. This simplifies regular maintenance tasks such as sweeping, cleaning, and removing oil or gas stains, reducing the need for intensive upkeep.
Cost-Saving Benefit: Easier maintenance means fewer professional cleaning services or treatments, lowering long-term maintenance costs.
A freshly sealcoated surface looks polished and professional, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your property. For businesses, this can create a positive impression and attract more customers. For homeowners, it boosts curb appeal and property value.
Cost-Saving Benefit: Maintaining an attractive surface helps you avoid expensive resurfacing projects while increasing property appeal.
