Reliable Asphalt Sealcoating Contractors

Sealcoating helps protect and preserve the longevity of your asphalt surfaces. While a high-quality asphalt paving installation provides a durable foundation, it still requires extra care to protect it from aging and harsh weather. Freezing winter temperatures, in particular, can cause significant damage to asphalt, making it more prone to cracks, while heavy traffic and constant wear lead to deterioration over time.

For over 60 years, Finley Asphalt & Concrete has been helping property owners across Virginia and Maryland safeguard their asphalt with expert parking lot sealcoating in Virginia services. Sealcoating essentially protects your pavement from the elements, UV rays, and wear and tear, ultimately preventing costly repairs and extending the life of your asphalt.

What is Sealcoating?

Asphalt sealcoating is a maintenance service that protects asphalt from damage caused by the sun, water, oil, chemicals, and traffic. It creates a barrier that helps your pavement last longer and stay in prime condition.

Asphalt sealing is commonly used to refer to sealcoating. These services are meant to protect asphalt from future deterioration and do not fix existing cracks, potholes, or structural issues.

Benefits of Professional Asphalt Sealcoating

Professional sealcoating services help protect your pavement while boosting safety, appearance, and overall value.

Key benefits include:

Extends the lifespan of your pavement
Protects against water, UV rays, oil, and chemicals
Enhances curb appeal and improves safety
Reduces long-term repair and maintenance costs

Cost-Effective Option

Sealcoating is a cost-effective investment that helps you avoid the high expenses associated with asphalt damage and repairs. It is recommended to apply sealcoating every 2 to 3 years, which is much less frequent than the costs of continuous repairs, making it a more affordable long-term option.

Increased Asphalt Lifespan

Sealcoating helps create a flexible, pliable surface that can withstand heavy traffic without chipping or cracking. This significantly extends the lifespan of your asphalt, preventing the need for expensive replacements.

Surface Protection

Sealcoating acts as a barrier, slowing down the deterioration of your pavement caused by rain, UV rays, and oxidation. This helps preserve the structural integrity of your asphalt, reducing the need for major repairs and keeping your surface in optimal condition.

Sealcoating vs. Asphalt Repairs

Proper pavement care starts with choosing the right approach. Sealcoating is a preventative treatment that protects asphalt from premature wear, while repairs or replacement address existing cracks, potholes, or structural damage.

Here’s how to decide between sealcoating or repairs and replacement:

Factor	Asphalt Sealcoating	Asphalt Repair / Replacement
Cost Range	Low to moderate	Moderate to high
Typical Timeline	One-day application plus curing time	Several days to weeks, depending on the scope
When It’s Appropriate	Pavement is structurally sound with surface wear, fading, or minor cracking	Structural damage, base failure, large cracks, potholes, or severe deterioration
Primary Purpose	Protects the surface and extends pavement lifespan	Restores structural integrity and functionality
Impact on Appearance	Restores a dark, uniform finish	Improves surface condition and safety
Longevity Impact	Extends pavement life when maintained regularly	Extends pavement life long-term based on repair type
Traffic Disruption	Minimal	Moderate to significant
Recommended Frequency	Every 2–3 years	As needed, based on pavement condition

At Finely Asphalt & Concrete, we conduct a thorough site evaluation to recommend the best approach to match your budget and durability needs.

Our Asphalt Sealcoating Process

Our sealcoating contractors follow a proven process for long-lasting results and minimal disruption.

Site Evaluation & Surface Preparation

We inspect your pavement and remove debris, dirt, and loose material to ensure proper sealcoat adhesion.

Crack Filling

Cracks are filled before sealing to prevent moisture from penetrating beneath the pavement. If isolated surface failures are present, we may also perform targeted repairs, such as infrared patching.

Professional Sealcoat Application

We apply a commercial-grade sealcoat evenly across the surface to protect against oxidation, water, and everyday wear.

Curing & Striping Coordination

Once the sealcoat has cured, we lay striping and pavement markings to restore traffic flow, safety, and compliance.

How Frequently Is Sealcoating Required?

It depends on a few factors, including:

The age of your pavement

How frequently the pavement is used

Your local climate and weather conditions

Reactive vs. Proactive Maintenance

Reactive Maintenance

Reactive maintenance is cheaper upfront but more expensive long-term. Here’s why reactive maintenance falls short of preventative maintenance.

Preventative Maintenance

Since preventative maintenance prevents pavement problems from happening in the first place, it helps you cut costs and allocate your time toward more important issues. Here’s why preventative maintenance is the recommended choice for all our customers.

Cost of Asphalt Sealcoating

Because sealcoating is a preventative maintenance service, pricing is typically lower than repair or replacement costs, especially when performed on a regular schedule.

Key factors that influence parking lot sealcoating cost include:

Square footage of the pavement area
Surface condition
Traffic and access requirements
Maintenance scheduling
