With regular sealcoating maintenance, you can double—or even triple the life of your asphalt. It provides a barrier to salts, chemicals, and petroleum products which break down asphalt. It seals out moisture that can erode the base beneath the asphalt and improves crack resistance by keeping the asphalt flexible so it doesn't crack or break. Sealcoating also enhances property value with it's well-maintained look and rich, black color. American Asphalt Maintenance offers complete layout and line striping services.

Proper attention to cracks will prevent problems from spreading and double the life of the pavement. Crack sealing is used as a first defense against pavement deterioration. Crack sealing keeps water from entering and weakening the base. It also prevents sand, stone, and dirt from making its way into open cracks and helps minimize crack growth. Potholes occur when water seeps into pavement through unsealed or improperly sealed cracks. Patching is a common asphalt repair on areas with potholes. Severe, criss-crossed cracking, what we call alligatored areas, is the primary indicator that a repair is necessary.
