Driveway Paving Port St Lucie - St Lucie Asphalt Driveway Paving Pros

 

Driveways are an essential part of every home and can be expensive to maintain. Driveways that are uneven or cracked surfaces, potholes, cracks in the asphalt, or weeds growing up through the joints between the pavement slabs are all signs of an older driveway in need of repair. If any of these indicators are present, you may want to think about hiring an expert driveway paver to resurface your driveway.

 

Signs that indicate the need for repairs to your driveway

  1. Cracked Driveway
  2. Uneven Driveway. A driveway that is uneven makes it difficult for your car/truck to maintain an even ride. To remedy this issue it is necessary to perform some leveling. This will allow you to repair your driveway.
  3. Potholes in the driveway: Potholes at the top of the driveway must be fixed as soon as possible. Potholes can lead to tire damage or even axle failure.

We do offer a wide variety of services in the area of repair and maintenance. One of the most requested repair services that many homeowners require is driveway sealant.

Driveway sealant can be described as a fluid that dries and sets to form an invisible layer of protection from snowmelt, rain or any other substance.

This type of driveway repair is possible in two different ways. Spray sealing is one method, and hand-applying sealants is the second.

Spray sealing is the process of spraying sealant materials on your driveway. Spray sealing can be done using an airless sprayer, or the pump-up garden hose equipped with the nozzle. It's all about which method is best for your specific project.

 

What is the difference in spray sealing versus hand sealing?

Spray sealing is a method which allows us to alter the ingredients of the sealer to meet the needs of the driveway. It is also altered based on whether the driveway is in direct sunlight or in shade.

When the sealant material has to be applied directly to your driveway, this is known as hand-applied seal. It can be accomplished using an squeegee or an emery roller or brush depending on the method you would like to use for your job.

Applying sealants by hand is less expensive and less time-consuming than applying sealants using machines.

 

How often should I seal my driveway

Spray sealing should only be done once every 2 to 4 years. For porous surfaces, the coating applied by hand must be applied every year. Depending on the quality of the original application was done an additional sealant product could be required to fix driveways.

 

What are the benefits of spray sealing?

The benefit using a sealant via spray spraying is that you don't have to do any manual labor , which can mean long hours spent manually spreading or brushing your concrete surface. One other major perk for this process includes its ability to cover large areas in a short amount of time which results in a less period of time as opposed to applying manually.

Spray applications and hand applications are both effective in protecting driveways from being damaged. They are both possible, and can be carried out by our employees.

 

What is asphalt pavement resurfacing? And when is this appropriate?

Resurfacing of asphalt is that involves the area of your driveway has been sanded and then spread over so that it can be flattened. This procedure is used in cases where the damage is too severe for other options (e.g. sealant or repair) to function.
