Sealcoating and Crack Sealing in New Jersey

Numerous factors can cause damage to your paved surfaces. For property managers and businesses, damaged pavement can reduce visual appeal and potentially lead to accidents for which you could be liable. With sealcoating and crack sealing from American Asphalt, customers throughout New Jersey and in parts of Pennsylvania and parts of New York can have peace of mind.

Sealcoating

“

Sealcoating helps improve the appearance and durability of your pavement to extend its lifespan. It provides a waterproof barrier over asphalt or concrete surfaces to protect against the potential damage caused by water, oxidation, weather conditions, and other factors. Sealcoating is a common service for commercial spaces such as parking lots and loading zones. When determining whether it is necessary, our knowledgeable team considers the age and condition of your pavement, how often it’s used, and the local climate. You may need sealcoating more often depending on these factors. American Asphalt can coat asphalt pavement we laid, or sealcoat surfaces another company laid. If it’s the latter, we will inspect the asphalt to ensure the company installed it correctly to prevent future problems. Unlike solutions designed to correct problems with your paved surface, sealcoating is a preventive measure. You might save on costs for repairs and replacements when you seek sealcoating services. The process involves:

Cleaning the surface to remove debris and repairing damaged areas like cracks and potholes. This ensures the sealcoating applies properly.
Sealing off areas that don’t require sealcoating.
Applying the sealcoat material.
Adding a sealant layer on top of the sealcoat material to hold it together and provide a smooth surface. The thickness of this layer will depend on the unique conditions of your project.
Allowing the sealcoat to dry and cure for 12 to 36 hours.
Applying new striping and marking once the surface cures.

Crack Sealing

Multiple elements can cause natural wear and tear to your pavement. Harsh weather conditions can impact its integrity. Tree roots can push up, leading to cracks. Minor cracks can grow into bigger issues, which is why crack sealing is crucial.

Crack sealing preserves the durability of an aging surface for greater longevity. It can help you avoid complete replacement, which saves time and money. What’s more, it can enhance the curb appeal of your space, facilitate proper drainage, and reduce the possibility of tripping. Ideally, crack sealing should be a part of annual maintenance efforts.

The crack sealing process includes:

Removing debris from cracks using different tools, like brushes and compressed air.
Applying the filling material with a caulk gun.
Evening out the crack filler with a trowel or putty knife to ensure a smooth surface level with the existing pavement.
