Asphalt Sealcoating Benefits

6 Benefits of Asphalt Sealcoating Everyone Should Know

Asphalt is a porous material that is used in constructing driveways. Constant damage and negligence can affect the quality of asphalt, and repairing it can be a costly job. Asphalt sealcoating is the best way to protect your asphalt and keep it intact. This technique keeps your driveway in a good condition. It also allows your asphalt parking lot to have a longer life.

Let’s unveil some more benefits of asphalt Sealcoating.

1. Protection from the Sun

The ultraviolet rays of the sun cause oxidation, which damages the asphalt parking lots. Asphalt sealcoating acts as a protective shield against the harmful rays of the sun and keeps your parking lot intact.

2. Durability

Because sealcoating is a dark material, it tends to heat up in the sun. As a result, it helps in extending the life of the asphalt parking lot. Sealcoat is flexible and tends to get more pliant when it is hot. This quality of the sealcoat keeps your asphalt driveway free from cracks. It has the ability to withstand pressure from heavy traffic and keep the asphalt free from wear and tear.

3. Cost-Effectiveness

Asphalt is one of the most expensive materials, and repairing it can be just as pricey. On the other hand, sealcoating is not as expensive. It protects your asphalt parking lot from damage, thus saving you a lot of money.

4. Weatherproofing

Another benefit of asphalt sealcoating is weatherproofing. Sealcoating keeps the asphalt safe from sunlight, rainwater, snow, and water overflow. One of the major threats to the quality of your asphalt parking lot is water damage. Water tends to seep under the asphalt’s surface through cracks. This unhealthy exposure to water causes corrosion, thus causing the asphalt to deteriorate. Our sealcoating methods stand as a shield between the parking lot and the environmental elements.

5. Easy to Maintain

Not only is asphalt sealcoating cost-effective, but it makes the maintenance of your parking lot fairly easy. It makes the surface of your asphalt parking lot smooth, making cleaning a hassle-free job. A driveway that has been sealcoated can easily be cleaned with a broom. With our methods, you can even wash your parking lot without being fearful of water seeping through the cracks.

6. Appearance

Your driveway is a crucial component that adds to the overall appearance of your property. With asphalt sealcoating, you can turn a filthy-looking driveway into one that appears brand new and squeaky clean. Sealcoating gives off a well maintained look, compared to mere asphalt.

These were just some of the benefits of asphalt sealcoating. If you haven’t sealcoated your asphalt driveway yet, make sure to call Asphalt Sealers inc today and get your sealcoating quote.

Where there is Asphalt, potholes follow!

Where there is asphalt, there are potholes. Asphalt starts cracking when water penetrates underneath it which expands and contracts with temperature. And we all know that we get a lot of strong UV from the sun drying everything out. Moreover, the constant exposure to moisture also sets off the process of asphalt erosion.

In Florida, where average rainfall is quite high, potholes are commonplace. However, they pose several unwanted repercussions for commercial properties. This is the reason why proprietors are advised to take care of pothole repair and patching around their properties with the help of expert Asphalt Sealers Inc of Florida.

In order to understand the importance of timely pothole repairs, let’s have a brief discussion of its unwanted ramifications.

Tarnished Curb Appeal

Curb appeal is an important aspect of any commercial property. Not only does it affect the resale value of the property, but it can also impinge on an establishment’s customer footfall. A new customer enters any business establishment while judging its surroundings. With the eyesore of potholes, a business can’t make a good impression on potential customers. Walking down a pothole-ridden pavement, many customers might form an opinion about the reputation of the business even before appraising its offered services and products.

Indicates Extensive Future Repairs

A small pothole might not stain the overall appearance the curb. Neither does it make it inconvenient for car owners and pedestrians. Nonetheless, it suggests that there is some underlying issue with water drainage that is lined along the pavement. Moreover, a small pothole will grow into a bigger one in no time if it remains unrepaired.

Have all small and medium potholes repaired on time by any experienced Asphalt Sealers Inc of Florida or be prepared to bear the expenses of carpeting the entire parking pavement around your business establishment.

It’s a Safety Hazard

Potholes are safety hazards for both pedestrians and drivers. With a pothole-ridden pavement, the hazard of tripping never goes away for pedestrian customers. On the other hand, potholes, even the shallow ones, can result in damage to cars with low suspensions. The business can be held responsible for any significant damage or serious injury incurred by any customer due to potholes. After all, it’s the owner’s responsibility to ensure safe and trouble-free access to the business’s outlet.

In order to prevent pothole situation around your establishment, have it surveyed and serviced from any experienced Asphalt Sealers Inc of Florida. With this preventive measure, you can avoid expensive and extensive repairs later on.

Importance of Sealcoating Over Asphalt Pavements for Oxidation Resistance

Asphalt-made surfaces look good and offer a lot of utility too. However, they are susceptible to deterioration due to various reasons, particularly oxidation. The result of all this is a significant reduction in the operating life of any asphalt surface.

To protect an asphalt surface from the deteriorating effects of oxidation, sealcoating is a cost-effective measure to take up. By having a driveway, pavement or a parking lot protected with sealcoating in Southwest Florida, one can maintain the pavements as well as extend the utility of the asphalt surface for a long time.

There are certain features of sealcoating which makes it important and beneficial for asphalt-covered surfaces in the face of oxidation.

Sealcoating Slows Down the Oxidation Process

Sun shines most of the year in Venice and our surrounding areas and asphalt surfaces directly bear the brunt of scorching sunshine. Sunlight doesn’t just carry heat, it also has invisible UV rays, and both of them actively deteriorate tarmacs.

Moreover, presence of air and sun also instigates the process of oxidation. When asphalt is spread over a surface, a binder is used to adhere the mix of gravel and coal tar to get a consistent texture. Oxidation deteriorates this binder which consequently results in a loose meshwork of the asphalt aggregates.

With weather conditions and traffic, these aggregates start to come out of the surface resulting in an uneven surface which completely defeats the purpose of getting asphalt covering in the first place.

The cracks and holes appear due to oxidation literally paves the way for water to seep inside the surface which only results in further deterioration. Sealcoating from an experienced asphalt sealing company such as ourselves can address this issue.

One must keep in mind that sealcoating can’t stop the process of oxidization. However, a good professional asphalt sealer can render the service of sealcoating, which dramatically slows down the process of oxidation.

Pro tip: Get your newly-constructed asphalt pavement sealcoated within 12 months of instillation. Right after the construction, an asphalt pavement is loaded with oils that need oxidizing reactions for neutralization to make the surface harder. So, oxidization for a couple of months after the construction is important. However, don’t leave it too long and hire Asphalt Sealers to get your pavement protected through sealcoating from the damages of oxidation.

Asphalt Sealers Florida | 4th Year attending the National Paving Conference

Asphalt Sealers Florida | 4th Year Update

Learning best practices from all over the United States – 4th Year in a row attending the National Pavement Conference

The surprise was that after 4 years in a row there was still so much to be gained. From 40 year veteran contractors to manufactures of the latest products it was definitely very worthwhile traveling to Nashville this year and not just because of the great music! Learning best practices from the world of asphalt from all over the United States really was that good!

And those best practices range from the hands on business of paving, sealcoating, striping, layout, preparation work and asphalt repair to the bespoke functions required to run a business successfully. Perhaps my personal favourite sessions are the roundtable discussions. It really is a very unique opportunity to pick the brains of fellow professionals who range form keen new contractors with other industry experience to veteran contractors with 30-40 years plus of experience. There is also a huge benefit in listening to professionals from outside of the local area.

Learning and improving. Every year there have been small little improvements that we have been able to incorporate in to our everyday operations. An impressive element to the conference is the way that the seminars and workshops are presented. The leaders in there respective fields are all keen to help fellow professionals to become the future industry leaders. And the message is clear – if you go to the National Expo on a regular basis – then you are one of the contractors that wants to set themselves apart from the rest – by embracing the notion of improvement through continual learning and embracing the newest products and best practices available.

The mix of great educational sessions, seeing the latest technology and innovations and of course meeting back up with old friends made it hugely beneficial. The other surprise was that there weren’t very many other contractors from SW Florida attending. This is definitely their loss and Asphalt Sealers clients gain!

ORLANDO MEMORIAL

Straight Line Southern

The tragedy of the Orlando nightclub shootings has been dominating the news this week. 49 men and women lost their lives to this senseless attack.

Those in Orlando and around the country grieve for those lost with memorials and acts of love. A vigil was set up along the roundabout outside the nightclub where the shooting occurred. The nightclub’s property management company wanted to ensure the safety of those grieving and make the vigil a safe and comforting place. They reached out to Straight Line Southern, a striping company based in Orlando, for help.

Mark Letourneau took it upon himself to create a stunning visual around the vigil that would hopefully inspire love and not hate.

Letourneau, a 30 year striping veteran who is a partner in Straight Line Southern and Asphalt Sealers, spent 9 hours getting this just right, laying approximately 15 gallons paint.

The markings had 17 sides and 6 colors for a total of 102 individual sections. The sections represent the 102 victims (49 dead, 53 injured)

“It just feels good to do something,” Letourneau says of his work.
