Professionally Sealcoating your Driveway Will Save You Money and Time
Have you had your driveway sealcoated? If not -- it might be overdue. Did you know that water is one of the most destructive elements your driveway faces? With rain all year and brutal winters, driveways in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont are frequently wet, giving that moisture the opportunity to permeate your driveway, weaken your asphalt, and create an ugly and expensive problem. However, professional sealcoating gives your driveway the protection that translates into a better looking and longer lasting driveway.
Why You Should Have Your Driveway Sealcoated
Sealcoating your driveway is beneficial in a variety of ways. After all, why subject your driveway to the elements without protection? When done professionally by JDK Pavement, sealcoating will add years to your driveway, protecting it against water, weather, and repairs that would otherwise be unnecessary.
Did you know?
- Asphalt has a low resistance to sunlight: the asphalt in your driveway is a basic combination of rock, sand, and glue (and, possibly, other additives). Radiation will break down the adhesive in your asphalt, eliminating its flexibility and weakening it so that it less effectively holds together. This gradual softening can lead to a loose top on your driveway's surface. The first sign of this change is when your asphalt begins to change color. Next, your parking lot will begin to look more rough, with sand appearing in the lower portions of your lot. This is due to the various asphalt components breaking down. Finally, the bigger rocks in your asphalt will begin to fall out. Sealcoating your parking lot will help you avoid this gradual breakdown
- Asphalt is not resistant to salt, petroleum products (gas,oil,etc), and chemicals:If you're located in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, or Vermont your driveway inevitably faces loads of salt during the winter months. Due to the fact that asphalt is a petroleum product itself, other petroleum products (like the ones that cause oil-spots) easily permeate your driveway, with the potential to weaken it from within. Professional sealcoating will protect it from both.
