Byre Canada, London, Ontario
Asphalt sealing planned around pavement condition, preparation, and weather.
Sealer can protect and improve the appearance of suitable asphalt, but it does not rebuild failed pavement. Byre reviews cracking, settlement, contamination, drainage, and weather before scheduling.
Who this service is for
Homeowners, commercial properties, and property managers maintaining asphalt that is still structurally suitable for sealing.
Service scope
- Residential driveway sealing
- Commercial asphalt sealing
- Surface cleaning and preparation
- Selected crack preparation
- Edge protection
- Access and curing coordination
- Maintenance planning
Benefits
- Slows water and UV exposure that lead to cracking and surface breakdown over time
- Helps protect against oxidation, which is what turns asphalt grey and brittle with age
- Refreshes the appearance of a driveway or lot as part of regular exterior upkeep
- Makes new cracking or damage easier to spot early against a uniform, dark surface
- Fits into a regular maintenance cycle that can extend the useful life of asphalt that is otherwise sound
Project considerations
- Pavement age and condition
- Oil and chemical contamination
- Weather and temperature
- Crack severity
- Drainage and low areas
- Vehicle and pedestrian closure time
When it isn't advised
- The asphalt is already heavily cracked, alligatored, or structurally failing, sealer does not repair a failed base
- Drainage issues or standing water haven't been addressed, sealer won't bond properly to saturated asphalt
- The asphalt is newly laid and hasn't finished curing, new asphalt typically needs to cure before it can be sealed
- Temperature or weather conditions fall outside what the sealer requires to cure properly
- Oil or chemical contamination hasn't been treated first, sealer applied over it will lift shortly after
