Driveway Sealing Summer Myths Debunked

Are you thinking about sealing your driveway this summer? You’ve most likely heard a couple of things that have deterred you from doing so. We’re here to debunk those things you’ve heard:

  • “Driveway Sealant Is Just For Looks”: Although a freshly sealed driveway makes it look better, it’s not its only function. Sealing your driveway helps to protect your driveway from UV rays, water, and helps to prevent wear and tear.
  • “You Should Only Seal Your Driveway Once”: Sealing your driveway isn’t a one time deal. It requires regular care to be effective. You should try to seal your driveway every 2-3 years. 
  • “Summer is Too Hot for Driveway Sealing”: This is one of the most common driveway myths. The summer heat actually provides the best conditions for sealing your driveway. Asphalt sealant needs warm temperatures to cure effectively.
