You won’t be dealing with expensive pothole repairs next spring. Our professional sealcoating creates a protective barrier that keeps Long Island’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles from turning small cracks into major problems.
Your driveway stays black instead of fading to that worn-out gray. Oil stains wipe away instead of becoming permanent eyesores. Most importantly, you’re adding years to your asphalt’s lifespan while avoiding the hassle and cost of premature replacement.
The difference is clear when winter ends and your neighbors are calling repair companies while your driveway looks as good as the day we sealed it.
We’ve been protecting Brookhaven driveways for years at Rolling Hills Property Services. We understand how coastal weather affects asphalt differently than inland areas – the salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and intense summer heat all require a specific approach.
We’re locally owned and based right here in Smithtown, serving homeowners and property managers throughout Suffolk County. Our team is fully licensed and insured, and we back every job with a satisfaction guarantee.
You’re working with professionals who show up on time, communicate clearly, and use the same commercial-grade equipment and materials we use on parking lots and commercial properties.
First, we clean your driveway thoroughly and treat any oil stains with primer. Cracks larger than a quarter-inch get filled and allowed to cure properly – this prep work determines how long your sealcoating will last.
Next comes application using professional spray equipment for even coverage, not brushes or squeegees that leave streaks. We apply two thin coats because they perform better than one thick application.
Weather conditions matter, so we won’t start if rain is coming or temperatures are too low. After application, your driveway needs 24-48 hours to fully cure depending on humidity and temperature. We’ll give you specific timing based on current conditions so you know exactly when it’s safe to drive on.

You get commercial-grade coal tar or asphalt emulsion sealers – your choice based on your specific needs and budget. We use professional spray equipment for consistent coverage and clean, precise edge work around garage doors, walkways, and landscaping done by hand.
In Brookhaven, most driveways need sealcoating every 2-3 years, but it depends on traffic and exposure. Driveways with heavy use or full sun exposure may need attention more frequently. You’ll know it’s time when the surface starts looking gray instead of black, or when small cracks begin appearing.
We protect your landscaping completely and clean up when finished. You’ll receive specific maintenance instructions including avoiding rock salt in winter – sand or calcium chloride won’t damage the sealer like traditional salt does.
Most Brookhaven driveways stay protected for 2-3 years with proper sealcoating, but Long Island’s coastal conditions can affect this timeline. Driveways with heavy use or full sun exposure may need resealing more frequently.
You’ll know it’s time for resealing when your driveway starts looking gray instead of black, or when small cracks begin appearing. The key is staying ahead of major deterioration – it’s much cheaper to maintain than repair. With our commercial-grade sealers and proper application, you’re getting maximum protection against salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and UV damage that are common in Suffolk County.
Fall is ideal for driveway sealing in Brookhaven, giving the sealant time to cure properly before winter weather hits. We need temperatures above 50°F and no rain in the forecast for at least 24-48 hours after application.
Sealing before winter is crucial because it prevents water from penetrating small cracks that turn into major problems during freeze-thaw cycles. Once water gets into cracks and freezes, it expands and creates bigger cracks that become potholes by spring. Our timing ensures your driveway is fully protected before the first freeze, and we’ll give you specific curing instructions based on current weather conditions.
Quality sealcoating creates a protective barrier that significantly reduces salt damage, but proper winter maintenance matters too. We recommend avoiding rock salt entirely and using sand or calcium chloride instead – they won’t damage the sealer like traditional salt does.
Rock salt accelerates the freeze-thaw cycle and causes surface deterioration, leading to cracks and spalling even on sealed surfaces. Our commercial-grade sealers resist water and chemical penetration much better than untreated asphalt, but combining proper sealing with salt-free deicing gives you maximum protection. This approach keeps your driveway looking good and prevents the costly damage that comes from repeated salt exposure.
Proper preparation is everything – it determines how long your sealcoating will last. We start by pressure washing to remove all dirt, debris, and loose material, then treat any oil stains with primer so the sealer adheres properly.
Cracks larger than a quarter-inch get filled with crack filler and allowed to cure completely before we apply the sealcoat. We also check for drainage issues and address any areas where water pools, since standing water leads to premature deterioration. This thorough prep work ensures the sealer bonds properly and provides maximum protection. Skipping these steps is why some sealcoating jobs fail early – we don’t cut corners on preparation.
Professional application makes a huge difference in both appearance and longevity. We use commercial-grade spray equipment for even coverage instead of brushes or squeegees that leave streaks and uneven thickness.
Our sealers are commercial-grade coal tar or asphalt emulsion – much higher quality than store-bought products. We also know how to read weather conditions and won’t start if rain is coming or temperatures are too low, which ruins DIY jobs. The surface preparation alone requires professional equipment and experience. Most importantly, we apply two thin coats instead of one thick application because thin coats cure properly and last longer. DIY jobs often fail within a year, while our professional sealcoating protects for 2-3 years.
Yes, we back every driveway sealing job with a satisfaction guarantee because we’re confident in our materials and process. We’re fully licensed and insured, and we’ve been serving Brookhaven and Suffolk County for years with consistent results.
Our guarantee covers proper application and material performance when you follow our maintenance recommendations. This means avoiding rock salt, keeping the surface clean, and addressing any new damage promptly. We use the same commercial-grade materials and methods on residential driveways that we use for parking lots and commercial properties. If you’re not satisfied with the results, we’ll make it right. That’s the difference between working with established local professionals versus fly-by-night contractors.
