Signs Your Driveway or Parking Lot Needs Sealcoating
Faded grey appearance
Healthy asphalt is deep black. Grey means UV oxidation is already breaking down the binder.
Small surface cracks
Early cracks are sealcoating candidates. Wait and they become structural repairs.
Water absorbs into the surface
If water stops beading and running off, the protective barrier is gone. Sub-base damage is next.
Rough, sandy texture
Surface raveling, fine aggregate is being lost as the binder dries out.

Our Sealcoating Process - What to Expect
Surface cleaning
Commercial blowers and power washing. Oil spots receive degreaser treatment, sealcoat will not bond to oil-contaminated asphalt.
Crack filling
Hot rubberized crack filler on any crack wider than a hairline before the sealcoat is applied. Sealcoating over unfilled cracks fails within months.
Edge masking
All driveway edges, garage thresholds and adjacent surfaces masked for clean, straight lines.
Sealcoat application
Premium coal-tar emulsion or asphalt-based sealer applied by commercial squeegee or spray. Coverage rate controlled for correct UV protection and cure.
Cure and walkthrough
We walk the surface with you and confirm cure time requirements. Summer: light traffic in 24 hours, full cure at 48 to 72 hours.
The Benefits of Professional Sealcoating in Georgia's Climate
01
UV protection
Coal-tar and asphalt-based sealers contain UV-blocking pigments that dramatically slow oxidation through Georgia’s long sunny seasons.
02
Water resistance
Seals every surface pore, routing rainfall off the pavement rather than into the sub-base.
03
Petroleum resistance
Creates a chemical barrier against oil and fuel spills, essential for commercial lots and driveways near garages.
04
Curb appeal
Restores the deep black finish that makes a driveway or parking lot look freshly paved.
05
Cost savings
Extends driveway life by five to ten years at a fraction of replacement cost.
How Often Should You Sealcoat in Georgia?
Residential driveways: every two to three years. South or west-facing driveways in Forsyth, Gwinnett and Hall County benefit from the two-year cycle. First application: 12 months after new installation.
Commercial parking lots: annually for high-traffic lots along GA-400, I-985, SR-316 and I-85. Medium-traffic properties: every two years. Crack filling before each application.

What Is Sealcoating and Why Does Your Asphalt Need It?
Sealcoating is a protective liquid layer, coal-tar or asphalt-based, applied over asphalt to block UV rays, repel water, resist oil and fuel spills, and seal surface voids before they form cracks.
In North Georgia, regular sealcoating every 2–3 years extends driveway and parking lot life by 5–10 years, preventing oxidation, brittleness, and premature cracking.
What Happens If You Skip Sealcoating
Skipping sealcoating saves a small upfront cost but leads to faster surface failure.
Cracks, brittleness, and alligator patterns appear within 3–5 years, especially on red clay soils in Gwinnett, Forsyth, and Hall Counties. Sub-base softening increases repair costs, often requiring full asphalt replacement.
Residential driveways: $0.15 to $0.35 per square foot. A standard two-car driveway typically falls between $200 and $400. Commercial lots priced by square footage, coat count and whether striping is included.
Light foot traffic: two to four hours. Vehicle traffic: 24 hours under spring and fall conditions. Peak summer: 48 hours. Cool fall weather: 48 to 72 hours.
Every two to three years for most North Georgia residential driveways. Heavy-use or south-facing driveways: every two years. New driveways: wait 12 months after installation before first application.
It significantly slows cracking by blocking UV and water infiltration. It seals hairline cracks during application but is not a structural repair product. Active cracks wider than a hairline need hot rubberized crack filler before sealcoating.
Coal-tar emulsion: superior petroleum resistance and a harder film, preferred for commercial lots and heavy vehicle use. Asphalt-based sealer: lower odour, more environmentally friendly, standard for many residential applications. SealPro recommends the right product at your free estimate.
