Sealcoating & Slurry Sealing Services in Southern California
Protect Your Asphalt Investment with Ochoa Striping's Sealcoating Expertise
Ochoa Striping Services is your one-stop shop for professional sealcoating and slurry sealing services in San Diego, Los Angeles, and Orange County. We understand the importance of maintaining your parking lot for both functionality and aesthetics. Our sealcoating services extend the lifespan of your asphalt pavement, protecting it from the harsh California sun, water damage, and everyday wear and tear.
What is Sealcoating?
Sealcoating is a preventative maintenance process that applies a layer of liquid asphalt emulsion to your existing pavement. This creates a protective barrier that:
Prevents water intrusion: Sealcoating fills minor cracks and prevents water from seeping into the asphalt base, which can lead to potholes and sub-base erosion.
Protects against UV rays: The sun's rays can deteriorate asphalt over time. Sealcoating acts as a sunscreen, extending the lifespan of your pavement.
Resists oil and gas spills: Sealcoating prevents oil and gas from penetrating the asphalt, minimizing damage and staining.
Enhances curb appeal: A freshly sealed parking lot has a rich black finish that creates a clean and professional first impression.
Understanding Sealcoating Options: Regular vs. Slurry Seal
Regular Blacktop Sealcoating: This is our most popular option, ideal for well-maintained asphalt surfaces with minimal cracking. It provides a durable and attractive finish that protects against the elements and extends the lifespan of your pavement.
Type 1 Slurry Seal: A cost-effective solution for surfaces with minor cracks (less than ¼ inch wide). This asphalt emulsion mixture is applied in a thin layer to fill cracks and smooth uneven surfaces.
Type 2 Slurry Seal: Designed for surfaces with larger cracks (¼ inch to ½ inch wide) and high-traffic areas. This is a thicker, more durable slurry that provides superior crack filling and protection for heavily used pavements.
Applying the Sealcoat: Spray and Squeegee
Ochoa Striping Services utilizes a two-step application process to ensure a uniform and long-lasting sealcoat:
Spray Application: We use specialized spray equipment to apply a precise and even coat of sealcoat across the entire asphalt surface. This method ensures complete coverage and minimizes the risk of missed spots.
Squeegee Application: Following the spray application, our crew expertly uses squeegees to spread the sealcoat evenly and ensure a smooth finish. This technique helps to fill minor imperfections and achieve optimal material distribution.
Do You Need to Apply Two Coats of Sealcoat?
In most cases, applying two coats of sealcoat is recommended for optimal performance. The first coat acts as a primer, filling minor cracks and creating a good bond for the second coat. The second coat provides the final layer of protection and ensures a smooth, even surface. Our experts will assess your specific needs and recommend the most appropriate number of coats for your project.
How Soon Can We Walk and Drive on the Sealcoated Asphalt?
How soon you can walk and drive on your newly sealed asphalt depends on weather conditions and the type of sealcoat used. Generally, light foot traffic is permissible 3-4 hours after application, allowing the sealcoat to form a preliminary cure. However, for driving and parking vehicles, it's recommended to wait at least 24 hours, especially for thicker sealcoats or cooler temperatures. To ensure a complete cure and optimal performance, we advise waiting 48-72 hours before resuming regular use of your asphalt surface. Our team will provide specific cure times based on your project and weather forecast to avoid any unwanted marks or damage.
What determines how fast the sealcoating dries & cures?
The drying and curing time of your sealcoat is influenced by several factors. Temperature plays a key role, with warmer weather accelerating the process. Conversely, cooler temperatures and overcast skies can slow drying and curing. Humidity levels are another important factor, as moisture in the air can impede evaporation of the water content in the sealcoat. Additionally, the type of sealcoat itself can influence curing time. Regular sealcoat cures faster than slurry seal, and the number of coats applied will also affect cure times, with multiple coats taking longer to fully cure. Our experienced crew considers all these elements when determining the optimal timeframe for foot traffic and driving on your sealed surface.
Are Tire Marks Normal on Brand New Sealcoating?
Yes, noticing tire marks on your freshly sealed asphalt driveway or parking lot is a fairly common occurrence. While it may seem like a cause for concern, these marks are normal and temporary. With some time (typically a week or two), these marks will buff out on their own. One way to minimize these marks is to avoid turning vehicle wheels in place as much as possible. If you have any concerns, don't hesitate to contact Ochoa Striping Services. Our team is happy to address your questions and ensure a beautiful, long-lasting sealcoat for your asphalt surface.
Treating Oil Spots
Before applying a fresh coat of sealcoat, it's crucial to address any existing oil stains on your asphalt pavement. Oil and gasoline can dissolve the sealcoat and prevent it from properly adhering to the surface. Here at Ochoa Striping Services, we take the following steps to ensure optimal results:
Oil Spot Identification: Our team will thoroughly inspect your asphalt surface to identify any oil stains or spills.
Oil Spot Treatment: We use specialized oil spot treatment products designed to remove and neutralize oil contaminants. These products effectively break down and absorb oil residues, ensuring a clean and sound surface for sealcoat application.
Degreasing (Optional): In some cases, depending on the severity of the oil stain, degreasing may be necessary. We use environmentally friendly degreasing solutions that effectively remove any lingering oil residue without harming the asphalt.
By taking these precautions, we ensure that your new sealcoat adheres properly and provides long-lasting protection for your asphalt pavement. If you have any concerns about oil stains on your driveway or parking lot, don't hesitate to ask our experts. We'll be happy to assess the situation and recommend the most appropriate course of action.
