Seal King has been serving Minnesota and the surrounding states for more than 31 years. In that time, we have worked hard to set ourselves apart from our competitors and provide high quality service, affordable pricing and attention to detail. One huge reason that we have been so successful is because of the unique hot mix sealer that we use for our residential and commercial professional sealcoating jobs. We custom blend our sealer using the highest quality raw products, high performance additives, and blackening agents. We mix these ingredients together with our state-of-the-art tools including mixing equipment and pumps, to produce the perfect mix every time. One of the main differences about our process is that we heat the water that we add to the concentrated sealer to 110-130 degrees, which allows for a much better blend. No other company has a product like ours!

As you look out your window at your driveway, you may be wondering how to protect your investment and maintain its appeal and durability. Sealcoating is a type of sealant used to protect asphalt pavements. In conjunction with crack repair, sealcoating keeps your driveway strong and intact when applied every two to three years. It serves as a protective barrier against the elements and vehicle traffic. Sealcoating also enhances the appearance of pavement with an even black finish. There are a few things to know about sealcoating before you start:
Sealcoating is not a one-time structural repair that can restore damaged asphalt. If your driveway has cracks or prior repairs, they will still be visible after sealcoating. While your driveway will be black after the application, sealcoating cannot “smooth out” rough areas or fill cracks larger than ¼” wide.

Now that springtime is upon us, we face the inevitable April showers and the start of the rainy season. This means that asphalt driveways and parking lots will be drowned in a good bit of water over the coming months. Without a good sealant, this water could seep further down into the underlying foundation of the asphalt and create more cracks and/or potholes. Help to protect your asphalt investment by getting the surface seal coated. This sealant will provide excellent protection of the underlying asphalt from the excess water.
