Get Your Free EstimateAsphalt Sealcoating means we put a protective liquid layer on your asphalt. This layer is usually a coal tar or an asphalt emulsion. This service includes a complete cleaning of the pavement, filling small cracks, and then putting on the sealant evenly. The sealant dries and makes a barrier against water, UV rays, and oil spills.
Our approach for Asphalt Sealcoating starts with looking at your pavement in Long Beach. We clean off all the dirt, debris, and oil spots that gather from daily use in Long Beach. Then, we fix the small cracks that happen because of the Long Beach climate. We make sure these cracks are filled correctly before we put the sealant down. We apply the sealant carefully. This makes sure the coat is even and will protect your asphalt investment. Diamond Asphalt Long Beach provides Asphalt Sealcoating services for homes in Long Beach, California.
For properties in Long Beach, Asphalt Sealcoating is very important. The sunny days and the heavy rains we get, along with the salty air near the coast, can damage asphalt. The sun's UV rays break down the binders in the asphalt, which makes it brittle. Water then gets into cracks, and this causes bigger problems. Asphalt Sealcoating works like a shield. It stops these common problems that we see in Long Beach neighborhoods like Belmont Shore and Bixby Knolls.
Homeowners in Long Beach often ask about the best time for Asphalt Sealcoating or how long it takes. We usually suggest Asphalt Sealcoating every 2 to 3 years. This depends on how much traffic the asphalt sees and how much weather it gets. The actual application of the Asphalt Sealcoating usually takes a few hours for a standard driveway. There is a full cure time of 24 to 48 hours before you can drive on it. This lets the Asphalt Sealcoating do its job completely. For homes and businesses in Long Beach, Diamond Asphalt Long Beach provides Asphalt Sealcoating services.
Long Beach has a unique coastal climate, and this climate is very tough on asphalt surfaces. The abundant sunshine and the occasional dampness in Long Beach wear down asphalt. Our sunny skies have strong UV radiation, and this constant exposure causes the asphalt to oxidize. When asphalt oxidizes, it loses its flexibility and turns gray. This makes the asphalt surface brittle, and it will develop hairline cracks faster in Long Beach than in other areas.
The sun is not the only problem. The salty air near the ocean and the heavy rain we get can also make asphalt deteriorate faster. Water is asphalt's worst enemy. Once water gets into small cracks, it can freeze and expand, even if that is less common in Long Beach. Water can also erode the base layer of the asphalt. This leads to potholes and significant structural damage to the asphalt. Asphalt Sealcoating creates a waterproof barrier for the asphalt, and this barrier keeps moisture out.
Asphalt Sealcoating does more than just make your driveway look new again. Asphalt Sealcoating actively protects your asphalt from the specific challenges found in Long Beach. Sealcoating replenishes the asphalt's oils, and it restores the dark color of the asphalt. It also forms a protective layer that helps the asphalt stand up to the sun, the rain, and the daily wear and tear from our community's busy lives. For Long Beach properties, Diamond Asphalt Long Beach provides Asphalt Sealcoating services.
We start by thoroughly inspecting your asphalt surface. We note any specific areas of concern on the asphalt. Then, we use power blowers and wire brushes to remove all dirt, all debris, and any loose aggregate. This makes sure the asphalt surface is clean for adhesion.
When we do Asphalt Sealcoating in Long Beach, any small cracks up to one-quarter inch wide are filled with a hot rubberized crack filler. This hot rubberized crack filler helps stop water from getting into the asphalt. We also treat any oil spots or gas spots on the asphalt surface with a special primer. This primer makes sure the Asphalt Sealcoating adheres correctly in Long Beach. Diamond Asphalt Long Beach provides Asphalt Sealcoating services for homes in Long Beach, CA.
