Sealcoating, answered straight.

Residential driveway sealcoating in Ohio typically runs $0.15–$0.35 per square foot, or roughly $150–$400 for an average two-car driveway. Price depends on square footage, crack repair needed, prep work, and how many coats. LushLine gives free, no-obligation same-day estimates so you know exactly what your driveway will cost.

The best time to sealcoat a driveway in Ohio is late spring through early fall — roughly May through September — when daytime temperatures stay above 50°F and nights don't drop into the 30s. Sealer needs warm, dry conditions for at least 24 hours to cure properly. We book the season quickly, so it pays to get on the schedule early.

Most residential asphalt driveways should be sealcoated every 2 to 3 years. New pavement should cure for 6–12 months before its first sealcoat. High-traffic parking lots often benefit from resealing every 1–2 years. If water no longer beads on your driveway and the surface looks grey and dry, it's time.

A properly prepped and applied sealcoat lasts 2–3 years on residential driveways and 1–2 years on commercial parking lots that see heavier traffic. Proper crack filling and surface prep — which many companies skip — is the single biggest factor in how long the job actually lasts.

Sealcoating is a protective coating applied on top of existing asphalt to shield it from UV, water, and chemicals — it's maintenance. Repaving replaces the asphalt itself, typically costing 10–20x more. Regular sealcoating every 2–3 years is what delays the day you have to repave.

For most residential driveways, brush-applied sealcoating is the better choice. Brush application works the sealer into the pores of the asphalt, produces a thicker, more uniform coat, and gives sharp, clean edges with no overspray on concrete, siding, or landscaping. Spray application is faster and can make sense on large commercial lots, which is why LushLine offers both.

Sealcoating a commercial parking lot extends its lifespan, prevents costly pothole repairs, improves curb appeal for customers, and reduces liability by keeping the surface even and well-marked. Most lots pay back a sealcoat within one avoided repair.

Just move vehicles off the driveway, keep pets and kids inside during the job, and leave the surface dry the day before. We handle cleaning, edging, crack filling, and setup. Most residential driveways are ready to walk on within 24 hours and drive on within 48.
