SEALCOATING 
Aurora Asphalt & Sealcoating
offers the top of the line sealcoating service. Sealcoating is essential in
preventing your asphalt surface from premature failure.
Our sealcoating process consists of 5
steps:
- POWER EDGING
- Cutting away unwanted, overgrown grass and
weeds from the edges of the asphalt surface giving a very neat appearance.
- POWER CLEANING - Wire
brushes/brooms are used to loosen up all debris on the asphalt surface and in
cracks. Power blowers with air speed of over 200mph are used then to blow the
surface clean. Standard sweep equipment is used for large sealcoating projects.
- OIL SPOT PRIMING - Petroleum spots
are cleaned and primed to improve adhesion of sealer.
- HOT CRACK FILLING - Rubberized crack filler is
heated to 400º F and poured into cracks 1/4 to 1 -1/2 inches wide and 1/4 inch
deep. This is equivalent to the process used on our city streets. The hot
rubber will retain its elasticity during repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Cold pourable
crack filler will become brittle and break apart after cold weather. Routing of the
cracks is available and suggested for large crack filling projects at an additional
charge. The diagram below shows how the crack filler is able to seal a crack with
proper adhesion to the asphalt after routing.

- SEALCOATING
- Our sealer is a commercial grade
coal tar emulsion base sealer which meets and exceeds RP-355e specifications. The
sealer is a slip-resistant formula with silica sand and rubber additives. This
allows for maximum penetration into the pores of the surface. The sealer is applied
with a 36 inch or 48 inch brush thus also providing maximum penetration versus spray
applications. Finally, we barricade all access to the sealed surfaces.
