How Often Do You Need To Sealcoat Your Driveway?

First things first, what is sealing? 

Sealing involves treating your entire driveway surface of the asphalt, concrete, or gravel driveway with an acrylic sealer. 

It protects the soil beneath from moisture and prevents potholes by filling the holes in the ground. It also kills algae growth, extending the life of your driveway significantly.

If you want a robust driveway that will last for many years, you will want to seal it regularly. 

Most municipalities require you to seal your driveway every three years. 

How to tell When Your Driveway Needs Seal Coating

  • If you see rocks or pebbles in your driveway, paint splotches from the rain;
  • If there are large sections of the driveway that are lower than other sections of the driveway;
  • If you have potholes in your driveway, especially on curves.
  • If it is three years or more since your last seal coating.

Can You Sealcoat on Your Own?

DIYs are becoming a thing of every day. But when it comes to crucial things like your driveway, you might want to consider a professional’s help. 

Unless you have experience with seal coating, it is best to hire someone to do it for you. You will have fewer chances of messing things up and saving money in the long run.
