Planning tips for this checklist
Repair before sealing
Cleaning, crack filling, oil treatment, patching, and dry time make the sealing job more useful than simply coating over existing problems.
Weather controls the outcome
Temperature, rain forecast, humidity, shade, and curing time can decide whether the sealer bonds properly or fails early.
Know when sealing is not enough
Deep cracks, sinking, drainage problems, edge failure, and structural movement may need professional repair or replacement instead of another coat.
