Why You Should Sealcoat

Having your asphalt professionally sealed will greatly extend the life of your parking lot and create an amazing curb appeal. Sealcoating protects against oxidation by restoring the asphalt’s natural oils, which maintain its composition and structural integrity. Sealcoating your asphalt also helps it resist chemical spills such as gas, antifreeze and oil leaks, which break down the asphalt’s structural bonds. By sealing your asphalt, you will enhance the appearance of your property, creating more value on resale, while also protecting your investment. Sealcoating in conjunction with crack repair is guaranteed to significantly extend the life of your asphalt investment, while reducing your long-term asphalt maintenance costs. At Seal-A-Drive, we enhance your driveway’s longevity and curb appeal with professional asphalt seal coating in Ottawa. Our expert services include sealing asphalt driveways, driveway sealcoating, asphalt crack sealing, and more, using quality driveway crack sealer. Protect your investment and minimize long-term maintenance costs. Contact us for superior asphalt seal coating solutions.

Left Untreated

Asphalt oxidizes over time, which makes it lose its natural oils and become brittle. With harsh Canadian winters, brittle asphalt is susceptible to cracking and pitting. Sealcoating adds the natural oils back into the asphalt, which helps it remain pliable through the changing seasons and protects it against the sun’s harmful rays.

We Use

Seal-A-Drive uses a premium quality 100% oil-based sealer called Blackmac, bought directly from McAsphalt Industries, a leading supplier of asphalt based products. Only Blackmac oil-based sealer will protect your asphalt as it is manufactured with bitumen, the same organic semi-solid matter used to make asphalt. Do not settle for cheap, water-based, acrylic paints, sold by department stores and sprayed by some contractors. These products can actually increase the damage to your asphalt, as well as your maintenance costs. When it comes to protecting your asphalt, Blackmac is the only option.

The Process

Our sealcoat maintenance process includes cleaning the asphalt in preparation for an evenly sprayed application of sealer. The perimeter of the asphalt is trimmed of vegetation and then the asphalt is power swept and blown clean of dirt and debris. Oil and gas stains are pretreated with spot primer in order to ensure proper adhesion. If repair is required, the cracks are filled before the sealing. All bricks, interlock walkways and exterior walls of the buildings are boarded to ensure perfect application with flawless trim. The asphalt is then sealed off with caution tape for the overnight drying process. Your asphalt is ready the next day. Parking lot lines can be resprayed first thing in the morning, drying almost instantaneously and leaving your parking lot ready for customers.

Free Analysis

Seal-A-Drive will assess your sealcoating needs, outline what needs to be done, what it will cost, and most importantly, what it will save you.

Regular seal coating of your commercial or residential property is essential as it could help enhance its curb appeal. If the asphalt is not maintained well, it could get damaged and develop cracks that would give a poor impression on your entire property. Also, damaged asphalt could potentially be hazardous, especially for commercial areas since there could be a lot of visitors and vehicular traffic.

If you wish to protect the asphalt around your property, then seal coating can help prevent it from developing cracks over a certain amount of time due to factors like water seepage, oil or chemical spills, wear and tear, etc. Applying a sealant will also help you save money that would otherwise be spent on repairing or fixing asphalt damages.

Here are some other reasons why seal coating your asphalt is important –

  • Keeps the asphalt of your driveway or parking lot looking in great condition.
  • Sealcoating increases the lifespan of the asphalt on your property.
  • Helps make your commercial property look more attractive.
  • Protects the asphalt from natural elements like ice water and UV rays.
  • Using a sealant will reduce the cost of asphalt maintenance. 

The Seal-A-Drive team offers premium seal coating services as we use a superior sealant that is made a hundred percent from tar and oil-based materials called Blackmac. This unique and high-quality sealer is created from bituminous materials that help protect driveways or other asphalt surfaces and even extend their lifespan. 

We do not use any sealant products that are made from sub-standard acrylic or water-based substances. Blackmac is our product of choice as it is one of the best sealants supplied by McAsphalt Industries, which is a well-known provider of superior seal coating products.

Our process of seal coating asphalt is actually quite straightforward and not very time-consuming. Once you contact us to apply a sealant for the asphalt around your commercial property or residence, then our team of professionals will start the job by thoroughly cleaning the driveway or parking lot. We then use a special primer to remove any oily spots that we uncover to ensure the sealant sets well.

After we have completed preparing the surface for seal coating, we will then proceed to apply the sealer evenly around the area that is affected. Additionally, if our personnel find a spot that has a lot of cracks, then they inform the customer and repair the cracks before applying the sealant. As soon as the sealer is applied we will put some cautionary tape around the area to ensure that no people or vehicles disturb the site till the sealer has a chance to dry and set. The parking lot or driveway will be ready to use the next day.

We at Seal-A-Drive offer our customers in Ottawa and North Bay a free assessment of the site that needs a sealant application. So contact us to get an analysis of your commercial or residential property to determine if it needs asphalt seal coating. We can also discuss with you the advantages of choosing our Preventive Seal Coating Program which will help protect the asphalt of your driveway or parking lot for the long term.
