Asphalt Seal Coating
Although asphalt is one of the most affordable paving materials on the market, a new asphalt road or parking lot can still represent a substantial investment.
It is important to take the proper steps to protect your asphalt surfaces from damage and deterioration to make sure that you get the maximum return on your investment. Asphalt sealcoating offers asphalt surfaces an added layer of protection against the elements. Here in the Seattle area, asphalt surfaces can be exposed to a wide range of harsh weather and damaging conditions. Global Paving LLC can help you extend the life of your asphalt with expert seal coating services. We will help you determine the best way to preserve the appearance and condition of your road, driveway, parking lot, or walkway. Oxidization Exposure to the elements can cause asphalt surfaces to oxidize and become more brittle. It is important for asphalt to have some degree of flexibility since this is what allows it to handle the weight of traffic on a daily basis. Once asphalt has oxidized, it is much more prone to cracks and other forms of damage. A proper sealcoat can help your asphalt road, driveway, or parking lot retain its strength and integrity, minimizing the need for repairs or resurfacing as time goes by. UV Damage As a local contractor that has specialized in residential and commercial asphalt paving and repairs for 4 generations, we have seen the damage and destruction that the sun’s powerful UV rays can cause to unprotected asphalt surfaces. While many clients are generally more concerned about water penetration or chemical exposure, UV rays are a much more salient threat to most asphalt surfaces. A high quality sealcoat will prevent UV damage and reduce the rate of deterioration of your parking lot, driveway, or road. Water Penetration Water that is able to penetrate the surface of your asphalt can lead to damage to the base beneath. Often, this damage is not visible from above but over time, it will severely degrade the strength and condition of your asphalt surface. Asphalt seal coating prevents the absorption of water and mitigates potential water damage to extend the life or your asphalt. Professional sealcoating will help maintain the condition of your asphalt surfaces, however, it will not help to fix deteriorate or damage that is already present. For best results, our company offers asphalt repairs and resurfacing to make sure that your asphalt surfaces are ready for sealcoating. Chemical Exposure Roads, parking lots, and driveways are often exposed to daily vehicle traffic. With that comes potential damage from exposure to auto fluids, oil, or gasoline. Asphalt sealcoating offers reliable protection against a wide range of elements, including natural weather conditions as well as chemicals and pollutants associated with vehicle traffic. Our team of experienced professionals offers clients the best solutions for addressing threats to the integrity and durability of their asphalt surfaces.
