How often should I seal my driveway in San Diego?
There is no single interval for every driveway. The material, existing sealer, exposure, traffic, and wear all affect the need for another application. First, check the product’s care guidance. Then have the surface assessed before adding another coat, especially if the old finish is cloudy, peeling, or uneven.
What is the cost of driveway sealing in San Diego?
Driveway sealing costs vary based on the size of the area, condition of the surface, and type of sealer used. Most residential driveways in San Diego range from $2 to $3 per SQF. An additional charge will apply for stripping, cleaning, and restoration, and for joint fillers. We provide free on-site estimates. Contact us to confirm the scope and price for your driveway.
What type of sealer do you use?
The choice depends on the surface and the finish you want. Penetrating and film-forming products have different purposes, so we assess the material and any previous coating first. Also discuss appearance, traction, and care. A glossy finish is not the right choice for every area.
How long does driveway sealing take?
The schedule includes preparation, drying, application, and time before use. For example, an old coating may need removal before sealing. Weather and surface moisture also affect the work. Follow the selected product’s instructions for foot and vehicle traffic; ask us to confirm those times for your project.
Do I need to repair cracks before sealing?
Cracks and damage need assessment before sealing. However, not every crack takes the same repair, and sealer will not stop active movement. We discuss suitable repairs and the work sequence first. You can also read our concrete repair FAQ before comparing options.
