Does your sealcoat contractor have insurance? If so, ask to see a cover page of the policy and make sure it is current. R. Allen Sealcoating carries coverage for one to two million dollars.
What does the equipment look like? If your contractor shows up for a job with a heating oil tank or other less substantial equipment no investment has been made. This is cause for concern as you have to ask yourself how long will this contractor be in business and will they return if a situation occurs.
What is industry standard? Industry standard calls for a pressure spray using pavement sealer mixed with 30% to 35% water. This combination sprayed at 60 psi will bond to the asphalt penetrating the surface layer. Less trustworthy contractors will water down thier sealcoat mix to not only cut thier costs but reduce the effectiveness of the sealcoat. We use sealcoat that is locally made by a very reputable manufacturer. The end result is high quality work, with high quality materials, with a high quality finish.
When sealcoat is applied by squeegee or when using products found at your home box store or local hardware store it sits on top of your driveway or parking lot much the same as paint is applied by brush. After the sealcoat product dehydrates it chips and peels off the surface of the asphalt, and underneath is unprotected asphalt. We use a locally made coal tar sealcoat that has 200 lbs of silicone sand per 100
