So what causes asphalt to break down without the protection of a sealant? Asphalt is susceptible to natural elements such as sun, wind, rain, snow, and ice that cause oxidation to occur, as well as manmade elements such as fuel, oil, and salts, that break down the cohesive properties in the asphalt.
When a sealant is applied, the smoothest effect is achieved by checker boarding – first in one direction in relation to the house, and then smoothing again perpendicular to the first direction used, eliminating brush strokes.
If you are thinking about having your driveway sealed, it is a good idea to make an appointment early. Due to the nature of sealants, they have to be applied above a certain temperature. Once things heat up, things start getting busy. Make sure you are at the front of the line.
Not sure whether your pavement needs to be resealed? One of the best ways to tell is if the asphalt has begun to develop a grayish color. The color change is a sign of the occurrence of intense oxidation, which will lead to a breakdown of the pavement.
Although tar is a durable and cost-effective way to pave a surface, water and sun exposure can turn the surface brittle over the years. When this occurs, cracks, ruts and pot holes can form, making it treacherous for walking or driving.
