Sealcoating
Commercial property managers throughout Newnan, GA trust SouthEast Pavement Inc. for sealcoating because they’ve learned the difference between a contractor that does what they say and one that doesn’t. We show up on schedule, apply product correctly, and treat your pavement — and your property operations — with the care they deserve. Our A+ BBB-accredited sealcoating services protect commercial asphalt from Georgia’s UV exposure, heat, moisture, and chemical damage, extending pavement life and reducing long-term ownership costs for retail centers, office parks, HOAs, and industrial facilities across the region.
Why Sealcoating Is Essential for Commercial Asphalt
Asphalt is a durable material — but it’s not impervious. Without protection, UV rays oxidize the asphalt binder, causing it to dry out, crack, and lose its flexibility. Water infiltrates those cracks, weakens the base, and accelerates structural failure. Fuel and oil spills soften the surface and break down the binder. Sealcoating creates a protective barrier that slows all of these processes, preserves the pavement’s structural integrity, and keeps commercial surfaces looking professional for years longer than unprotected asphalt.
- UV Protection – Shields asphalt from solar oxidation that causes brittleness, cracking, and surface degradation
- Water Resistance – Creates an impermeable barrier that prevents water infiltration into cracks and the pavement base
- Chemical Resistance – Protects against fuel, oil, and fluid spills that soften and break down unprotected asphalt binder
- Surface Restoration – Returns faded, oxidized asphalt to a uniform dark appearance that signals well-maintained property
- Extended Pavement Life – Regular sealcoating can double the useful life of commercial asphalt surfaces
- Cost Reduction – Protected pavement requires fewer repairs and delayed reconstruction, reducing total lifecycle costs
Our Commercial Sealcoating Process
Sealcoating applied over dirty, cracked, or improperly prepared surfaces fails prematurely. Our process ensures your pavement is properly prepared before any product is applied — which means the seal bonds correctly, performs as expected, and lasts the full service life.
- Surface Assessment – Evaluate pavement condition, identify cracks and damage, and confirm surface is ready for sealing
- Crack Filling (If Needed) – Open cracks are filled before sealcoating to prevent water infiltration beneath the seal
- Cleaning and Preparation – Surface is thoroughly cleaned of debris, oil spots, and contaminants that would interfere with adhesion
- Edge Masking – Curbs, buildings, and adjacent surfaces are protected before application begins
- Sealcoat Application – Commercial-grade coal tar or asphalt emulsion sealer applied by squeegee or spray in specified coats
- Cure Time Management – Traffic is managed off the surface until the sealcoat has cured fully to prevent tracking

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lot need to be closed during sealcoating?
The sealed areas need to be closed to traffic until the product cures — typically 24–48 hours depending on temperature and humidity. We work with property managers to phase sealcoating so portions of the lot remain accessible throughout the project where possible.
What's the difference between coal tar sealer and asphalt emulsion sealer?
Coal tar sealer offers excellent resistance to fuel and oil spills and is commonly used in commercial applications. Asphalt emulsion sealer is a more environmentally friendly option with good UV protection. We’ll recommend the appropriate product based on your property’s traffic conditions and any environmental or HOA requirements.
Should crack filling and sealcoating be done together?
Yes — always crack fill before sealcoating. This is standard practice. Applying sealcoat over open cracks just seals moisture in rather than keeping it out. We coordinate crack treatment and sealcoating as part of the same maintenance visit when both services are needed.
