Driveway Sealcoating Steps

JLP Sealcoat thoroughly prepares your driveway asphalt surface before applying the sealer. First, we edge the grass line around the perimeter of the driveway or lot, and we use wire brooms, power brooms, and commercial blowers to completely clean the surface.

In creating great curb appeal for your driveway, JLP Sealcoat takes great pride in edging your yard.
After edging your grass, we always take care in making sure your driveway surface is clean for proper sealer adhesion.

We also prime any and all oil spots during this time. All crack and pothole repairs are made before the sealer is applied. After all preparations are made and the driveway or parking lot is completely cleaned, it is then ready for the sealcoat application. JLP Sealcoat is EXTREMELY careful not to get any sealer on anything but the asphalt to be sealed. We use brushes to apply the sealer by hand around garages and buildings, foundations, granite curbs, retaining walls, etc. We also take the extra care to make a perfectlly straight line out by the street to enhance the properties curb appeal.
