Protect Your Parking Lot — Without Shutting Down Your Business
Our expert asphalt sealcoating service is designed to extend the life of your lot, enhance curb appeal, and protect your surface from weather, wear, and water — all done overnight, so your business stays open.
What Is Sealcoating?
Sealcoating: The process of applying a protective layer over asphalt surfaces to shield them from damage caused by UV rays, water, oil, and general wear and tear. It restores a rich black finish, enhances curb appeal, and extends the life of your pavement.
"Think of it like sunscreen for your parking lot — essential maintenance that prevents costly repairs and premature resurfacing."
❗Why Sealcoating Matters:
-
Protects your investment – Blocks out moisture and chemicals that cause cracks and potholes
-
Improves appearance – Makes your lot look fresh, clean, and professional
-
Saves money long term – Prevents early deterioration and reduces repair costs
-
Extends surface life – Doubles the lifespan of asphalt with routine applications
-
Environmentally responsible – Minimizes the need for full replacements
At DC Solutions, our commercial-grade sealcoating is designed to work around your business hours — usually overnight — so you never have to close your doors or disrupt traffic.
Your asphalt is constantly under attack — from UV rays, water, traffic, and chemicals. Without protection, you’re looking at cracks, potholes, and costly repairs.
Sealcoating is the smart solution.
DC Solutions offers commercial-grade, overnight sealcoating services that keep your lot protected, polished, and open for business by morning.
At DC Solutions, we follow a proven system that delivers long-lasting results — without disrupting your business.
Here’s how we do it:
1. Assessment & Quote
We begin with a fast, professional evaluation of your asphalt surface and provide an honest, no-obligation quote.
2. Thorough Cleaning
We remove dirt, debris, and oil using blowers and brooms. If heavy cleaning is required, we offer deep cleaning at an additional hourly rate.
3. Crack Filling (If Needed)
We fill cracks to prevent water from getting underneath your asphalt, which reduces future damage and deterioration.

7. Overnight Drying
We complete most jobs overnight, so your lot is ready by morning — no shutdowns, no lost revenue.
🛡️ No Coat vs. 1 Coat vs. 2 Coats — What You Need to Know
Not all asphalt protection is created equal. Whether you’re maintaining a church parking lot or a commercial facility, knowing the difference between no sealant, one coat, and two coats of sealant helps you make the best decision for your surface — and your budget.
🚫 No Sealcoat
-
Asphalt is exposed to UV rays, water, oil, and salt
-
Fades quickly and becomes brittle
-
Leads to cracks, potholes, and costly repairs
-
Poor curb appeal — looks dry and worn
✴️ 1 Coat of Sealcoating
-
Basic protection against weather and wear
-
Improves visual appeal with a fresh black finish
-
Suitable for low-traffic areas or short-term fixes
-
Prone to early fading, especially in harsh environments
⭐ 2 Coats of Sealcoating (Our Standard for Commercial Jobs)
-
Maximum durability — withstands heavy traffic, oil spills, and the elements
-
Fills porous asphalt for a smoother, more uniform finish
-
Lasts up to twice as long as a single coat
-
Ideal for businesses, churches, and property managers who want long-term results
At DC Solutions, we apply two coats as the standard for our commercial and church clients because we believe in delivering work that lasts.
