We work on residential, commercial, and industrial properties throughout Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi, helping customers get more life out of their pavement and avoid unnecessary repairs.
Why Asphalt Sealcoating Matters in Memphis
Sealcoating creates a protective layer over your asphalt that shields it from sun, rain, oil spills, and general wear. Because Memphis experiences a long, hot summer season and frequent storms, pavement can deteriorate quickly without proper protection. Sealcoating slows down aging, prevents asphalt cracks, and helps keep your surface looking clean and smooth.
Without a protective coating, asphalt can dry out, fade, or develop cracks that allow water to seep into the base. Over time, this leads to potholes, buckling, and costly damage. Sealcoating is a simple, effective asphalt preservation treatment that prevents these issues and helps your pavement remain durable through all weather conditions.

Driveway Sealing for Memphis Homeowners
A driveway is one of the most heavily used surfaces on a property, and in Memphis, the combination of sunlight and humidity puts added stress on asphalt. Our driveway sealing service restores the surface, deepens its color, and protects it from seasonal weather changes.

Long-Lasting Pavement Preservation
Sealcoating is one of the most cost-effective ways to preserve your pavement. Instead of letting your asphalt degrade and requiring early asphalt replacement, a regular sealing schedule helps your surface stay flexible, strong, and weather resistant. Most properties in the Memphis area benefit from sealcoating every two to three years, depending on traffic and exposure.
Our sealcoat materials are selected for their performance in the Mid South climate, providing strong protection against heat, oxidation, and moisture. When applied by our experienced crew, the result is a clean, smooth surface that withstands daily wear and environmental stress.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I sealcoat my asphalt?
Most pavement surfaces in Memphis benefit from a fresh sealcoat every two to three years. High-traffic areas may require more frequent treatment.
Can sealcoating fix cracks or potholes?
Sealcoating protects your asphalt but does not repair structural damage. We fill cracks and address minor issues before sealing to ensure the best results.
How long does the sealcoat take to dry?
In most cases, the surface is ready for light use within twenty-four hours. Full curing may take forty-eight hours, depending on weather conditions.
