Outline

  1. How often should you sealcoat?

    There is no single year count in the opening. The FAQ lists the factors below and expects the interval to move with them.

  2. Quality of Pavement Sealer

    A watered-down, low-solids sealer wears out sooner. The FAQ ties longevity to what is actually in the pail.

  3. Proper Sealcoat Application Mix Design

    Water, sand, and additives have to match the sheet. A homemade mix changes how long the film lasts.

  4. Number of Coats Applied

    More coats, especially in drive lanes, last longer than a single beauty coat. The FAQ treats coat count as a life factor.

  5. Amount of Material Applied

    A thin film disappears faster. Coverage rate is part of the schedule, not only a cost lever.

  6. Geographic Area

    Sun, freeze-thaw, and rain change the interval. A mild climate and a harsh one should not share a calendar by default.
