Asphalt has quickly become a popular material choice for pavers across Maryland. Whether a new driveway is being created or an old parking lot is being repaved, asphalt has become the go-to material for contractors and pavers. This is because the material is easier to handle and more cost effective then the typically used concrete. When an asphalt seal coating is used after the asphalt has been laid, you are helping to protect and prolong your surface even more.
Asphalt seal coating may seem like an unnecessary step because asphalt already has a long lifespan, but nothing is indestructible. There are several things that can harm asphalt, which can leave it weak and vulnerable to damage. Asphalt is held together by a combination of glue, sand, and rock. While this combination is strong, it can break down after long exposure to UV rays from the sun. Asphalt can also become soft after it has absorbed oils and salts.
In order to prevent your asphalt from becoming damaged by the elements, choose an asphalt seal coating. This additional barrier works to protect your asphalt from the UV rays and prevents spills and other materials from being absorbed. This also means that your asphalt will look brand new for longer and will last longer than it would without the coating. This means less time and money spent on replacing your asphalt and more time using your parking lot or driveway.
