Seal Coating (SC)
Seal-coating is the most common residential driveway procedure. However,
doing the job correctly is key to a successful application. Seal coating
should never be done until the ambient day and evening temperature(s)
are 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Otherwise the seal-coat doesn't cure properly
and the sealer will have a tendency to wear off much more quickly than
it should. Application procedures may differ, but the importance of
using the right product cannot be overstated. Turbo Seal Inc. uses only
top-of-the-line Asphalt or coal tar emulsion sealer. All manufacturer's
mix specifications are followed as the proper amounts of washed
silica sand provide added traction and longevity to the seal finish. A
latex performance enhancer, is added to increase the longevity and color
of the finish. The sealer is transported in steel hydraulically agitated
tanks to ensure a consistent and uniform mixture arrives at the work
site. The subsequent result is a professional, enduring finish.
Seal coat is often applied too frequently. We recommend
that two coats be applied to a new installation after it has
cured for one year. Thereafter, a single coat
of sealer should be applied every three years
depending on surface traffic and wear.
Crack Sealant (CF)
Water is asphalt's enemy and cracks are the breach through which it
enters. Sealing a driveway must, when necessary, be coupled with
sealing the cracks. Otherwise water infiltrates the underlying base and
over time undermines the entire structure. The result looks like a
collapsed alligator's hide; the area appears cracked and sunken. Turbo
Seal Inc. uses only hot pour (applied at 400°F) rubberized
crack filler. This is a commercial grade crack sealant. It will
not track into your home, will stay pliable with seasonal changes, will
expand and contract with the pavement, and is ready for traffic in 2
hours. Cold-pour crack sealants sold in retail stores have none these
properties. Consequently, we don't use them.
Our Warranty is simple and straightforward:
