Even as the sealcoating season ends, there is still an opportunity to get important maintenance done to your driveway. Asphalt hot crack filling does not have the same temperature or weather conditions that driveway sealcoating does. As long as the pavement is dry when the hot crack filler is applied, it will seal that crack and prevent further deterioration in that area. Driveway sealcoating can be applied the next sealcoating season.
Picking The Right Sealcoating and Asphalt Repair Contractor
When selecting a sealcoating or blacktop repair contractor for maintaining your parking lot or driveway, besides price you should consider these other factors: Does the sealcoating or blacktop repair contractor have the necessary resources to be able to handle all phases of the blacktop project? Have they done sealcoating projects similar to yours that you can verify with a reference? Do they carry they proper insurances (liability, workers comp, & commercial auto)?
Of course price is a huge factor when selecting a residential sealcoater or commercial sealcoating specialist, however how much will it cost to correct the work performed by a sealcoating or hot crack fill contractor who was not the right guy for the job?

Be weary of pavement contractors who go door to door. Usually these contractors offer a drastically reduced price if services are performed that day. This doesn’t allow you time to look into or research this company.
You should ask yourself several questions… If this company’s work is so good, why arent they booked for the day? How can they perform the work for so little compared to other bids you may have received? Granted doing multiple jobs on one street allows for some cost saving but does that cover the discount being offered or are they using inadequate materials? If there is an issue with the work performed will they stand behind there work? Will I even be able to reach them?
Generally a reputable sealcoating or asphalt repair company will consider doing additional work if approached by a neighbor, if time and materials allow, however they will not solicit the neighbors in a door to door campaign.
