Sealcoating in the Hudson Valley

Sealcoating

Sealcoating is the single most affordable way to protect your asphalt investment and keep it looking new. Over time, sun, rain, snow, oil, and traffic wear away at the surface of any pavement. A fresh seal coat restores that deep black finish while shielding the asphalt underneath from the elements. Wells Asphalt has been sealcoating driveways and parking lots throughout Newburgh, NY and the Hudson Valley for three generations.

What Is Asphalt Sealcoating?

Sealcoating is the application of a protective liquid layer over existing asphalt. This barrier seals out water, UV rays, gasoline, and oil, all of which break down asphalt and lead to cracking, fading, and potholes. Think of it as sunscreen and waterproofing for your pavement.

Regular sealcoating every two to three years dramatically extends the life of your driveway or lot, saving you the much higher cost of repaving down the road.

Benefits of Professional Sealcoating

  • Protects asphalt from water, oil, gas, and UV damage
  • Restores a rich, like-new black appearance
  • Slows oxidation and prevents premature cracking
  • Makes the surface easier to clean and maintain
  • Extends pavement life and delays costly repaving

Our Sealcoating Process

Preparation is what separates a sealcoat that lasts from one that peels. Our team thoroughly cleans the surface, removes debris and vegetation, treats oil spots, and fills minor cracks before any sealer is applied. We then apply the seal coat evenly for full, durable coverage.

  • Clean and clear the entire surface
  • Treat oil stains and fill minor cracks
  • Apply seal coat with attention to edges and detail
  • Allow proper curing time before reopening
