Frequently Asked Questions
What is seal coating?
Seal coating is a protective layer applied to roads to extend their lifespan and reduce maintenance costs. It helps improve road durability by preventing oxidation, moisture penetration, and wear from traffic.
Why is seal coating important?
Seal coating is important because it provides a barrier against the elements, such as UV rays and water, which can damage the road surface. It also helps prevent cracks and potholes, reducing the need for costly repairs and extending the pavement’s service life.
How often should seal coating be done?
Seal coating should be done every 3-7 years, depending on the traffic volume and environmental conditions. High-traffic areas or regions with harsh weather may require more frequent applications to maintain optimal road performance.
Can seal coating be applied to different types of roads?
Yes, seal coating can be applied to various types of roads, including asphalt cement stabilized, cement and graded base course. It is a versatile solution for road maintenance and helps protect surfaces in residential, commercial, and industrial areas.
How long does seal coating take to cure?
The drying time for seal coating can vary depending on factors such as temperature and humidity. Generally, it takes around 24-48 hours for the seal coating to fully dry and cure. Though traffic can travel on the product soon after it’s applied (typically below 50kph). Warmer, dry conditions accelerate curing, while cooler or humid weather may extend the drying time.
