How often should I have my asphalt driveway sealcoated?
Most asphalt driveways should be sealcoated every 1-2 years, depending on their condition, traffic, and exposure to weather. Regular sealcoating helps protect asphalt from moisture, UV rays, oxidation, and freeze-thaw damage. The asphalt that last the longest and looks the best gets done once a year.
What are the benefits of professional asphalt sealcoating?
