Asphalt Sealcoating in Lehighton, PA

Sealcoating · Lehighton, PA

A fresh coat that protects driveways and commercial lots

NS Paving and Landscaping offers asphalt sealcoating for home driveways and commercial lots around Lehighton. Sealcoating puts a thin protective coat over asphalt that has turned dry and gray. An asphalt industry association says it renews old surfaces gone dry and brittle with age. It also seals small surface cracks and slows raveling, the loss of stone from the top.

We sealcoat home driveways, and we offer latex commercial sealcoating for business lots. On a patch and seal job, holes get asphalt patching first, and then the whole surface is sealed. Call or text (484) 545-5072 for a free estimate, and we put the quote in writing.

What Does Driveway Sealcoating Do?

Sun and water age an asphalt surface over time. It dries out, and the black fades to gray. A sealcoating trade association says sealcoat protects pavement from that natural aging. It also protects against oil and gasoline that leak from parked cars.

Sealcoat is a surface coat, so it suits asphalt that is still solid underneath. The same association says wide cracks and soft or sunken spots call for repair or replacement first. When the damage runs deeper, we talk through asphalt resurfacing or a full replacement with you.

When to Schedule Asphalt Sealcoating Around Lehighton

Sealer dries and hardens as its water evaporates, so it needs warm, dry weather. A sealcoating trade association calls for air at 50 degrees and rising, with pavement at 60 and rising. It also says to hold off when rain is likely. We schedule each job around a dry forecast.

NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals for the Lehighton weather station show when that window opens. The normal daily high there tops 70 degrees from May through September. That trade association calls temperatures above 70 ideal. The median last spring freeze falls around April 21, and the first fall freeze around October 23.

The cold months test asphalt in Carbon County. That station logs about 132 nights a year at or below freezing. PennDOT explains that potholes begin when snow or rain seeps below the pavement and then freezes. Sealcoating in the warm months seals small surface cracks before the freezes return.

Commercial Sealcoating for Parking Lots and Business Properties

We offer commercial sealcoating for businesses across the area, including latex commercial sealcoating. A parking lot takes steady traffic and oil drips from parked cars. A sealcoating trade association also notes the clean, uniform look a fresh coat gives a paved lot.

Trade guidance keeps a lot barricaded until the sealer is dry and hard enough for traffic. We set the timing with you before the job, so your customers and staff can plan around it.

Fresh sealer covers the old parking lines, and line striping is a separate trade. Plan for new lines once the seal cures. When a lot is too far gone for a seal, we also handle parking lot paving.

FAQ

Sealcoating Questions, Answered

Common questions about sealcoating around Lehighton and Carbon, Monroe and the surrounding counties. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (484) 545-5072

How soon can a new asphalt driveway be sealcoated?
A sealcoating trade association says hot mix asphalt usually cures in 30 to 90 days. An asphalt industry association adds that a well-built driveway should go about 2 to 5 years before its first seal. Climate and the quality of the paving change that timing. If you are planning a new asphalt driveway, ask us about sealcoat timing when we quote it.
How often should a driveway be sealcoated?
Go by the condition of the surface. An asphalt industry association says to seal as soon as the asphalt turns dry and brittle. Small cracks and loose stone on top are signs too. The association also warns that heavy coats can track onto shoes and tires.
How long should I stay off a fresh sealcoat?
Dry to the touch means you can walk on it, per a sealcoating trade association. Cars wait until curing is well underway. Overcast skies and high humidity stretch that time. We let you know when it is ready to drive on.
How much does asphalt sealcoating cost?
The price depends on the size of the driveway or lot and the shape it is in. Holes to patch and oil spots to clean add work ahead of the sealcoat. Call or text (484) 545-5072 for a free estimate. We look at the job and put the quote in writing.
Can sealcoating fix cracks and potholes?
Sealcoat seals small surface cracks, per an asphalt industry association. Wide cracks and soft or sunken spots need repair first. Potholes get patched before the seal, and that makes it a patch and seal job. Once we see the surface, we tell you which fix fits.
How do I get my driveway ready for sealcoating?
Move cars off the driveway before the work starts. Turn off lawn sprinklers that reach the pavement, and leave them off until it opens to traffic. A sealcoating trade association also says to hold off on washing cars nearby. We clean the surface just before the sealcoat goes down.
