Can you DIY chip seal?

• <div><p>Driveway installation is challenging. While chip seal might sound easier to apply than asphalt, the process still involves heavy machinery and professional skills. Unless you come from a construction background, we recommend hiring <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/asphalt-companies/">an asphalt company</a> to chip seal your new driveway. If you are paving the driveway entirely with chip seal, expect to pay <b>$5 to $10 per square foot</b>.</p></div>

Q: How often do you need to seal a driveway?

• <div><p>You should plan on sealing your driveway about <b>once every five years</b>, although you should plan to do it once every three years if your area experiences frequent rain or snow. Sealing your driveway protects it from moisture, UV rays, and chemicals from your car, like motor oil and antifreeze. If you find that your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-driveway-stain-removal.htm">driveway stains</a> easily or appears to be cracking or fading, you may want to schedule a sealing service regardless of when you last sealed it.</p></div>

Q: Can you seal your driveway too much?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to seal your driveway too much. Whether you have an asphalt or concrete driveway, sealing it every year opens your driveway to potential damage. Sealing an asphalt driveway annually may cause the seal to crack and peel even more. It may even trap oils within the asphalt that can leave you driving on a soft driveway. Avoid sealing your concrete driveway too much to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-prevent-concrete-cracks.htm">prevent the concrete from cracking</a>. If water enters these cracks, it can freeze, expand, and cause the cracks to worsen.</p></div>

Q: How much sealant do I need to cover my driveway?

• <div><p>Sealant comes in 5-gallon buckets that can cover up to 400 square feet. Measure your driveway to get the exact square footage, and remember to factor in enough sealant for two coats.</p></div>

Q: How do pros prevent sealant from peeling or flaking?

• <div><p>Proper surface prep and application techniques by pros minimize peeling, ensuring longevity.</p></div>
