When should I seal my driveway?

Seal an asphalt driveway every two to three years, or when the surface looks faded and small cracks appear. Apply sealant in mild, dry weather above 50 degrees. Clean the driveway thoroughly and patch any cracks first. For concrete driveways, seal every three to five years with a concrete sealer.

Why It Matters

Regular sealing protects your driveway from water damage, UV rays, and freeze-thaw cycles, extending its lifespan significantly.
