Should I seal fresh asphalt?

• <div><p>We don’t recommend sealing brand-new asphalt; instead, wait for at least three months so that the asphalt has some time to cure. If it’s applied too soon, the seal coat can trap oils and chemicals in the asphalt, preventing it from fully curing and leading to a weaker surface that’s susceptible to damage. </p></div>

Q: Do installations include sealing?

• <div><p>Yes, sealing is included to prevent staining and moisture absorption, depending on the stone type.</p></div>

Q: How long does sealant take to dry?

• <div><p>It depends on the type of sealer. Some sealers can dry in as little as 4 hours, but many can take up to 48 hours to fully cure. To play it safe, don&rsquo;t drive on your driveway for two days after sealing.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain asphalt surfaces?

• <div><p>Seal every 2-3 years, clean debris, and repair cracks promptly to extend lifespan.</p></div>

Q: How do you maintain a driveway?

• <div><p>Maintaining a driveway depends on the material your driveway is made of. Concrete and asphalt should be sealed to protect against water and freeze-thaw cycles. Cracks and expansion joints should be filled with a flexible polyurethane caulk or asphalt sealer. Before you apply a sealant to your driveway, consider pressure washing the surface. It will take off any loose sealant and any grime that might have caused a stain. Sealing over dirt and stains will trap it under the sealer.</p><p>If you live in colder climates, consider using sand rather than salt to de-ice. Sand helps melt the snow and ice without speeding up the freezing and unthawing process of your driveway, which helps prevent cracks from forming from the constant fluctuation of temperatures.</p></div>

Derek’s crew installed a low voltage electric gate across our driveway with code pads. They did a great job, clean and tidy, and just what we wanted. We are very pleased.
