You won’t worry about cracks spreading after every winter storm. Your asphalt stays rich black instead of faded gray, and water rolls right off instead of soaking in and causing damage.
Most Mount Sinai homeowners don’t realize how much money they’re losing when their driveway deteriorates. A $500 sealcoating job today prevents a $5,000 replacement tomorrow.
Your property value increases immediately. Neighbors notice. Potential buyers see a well-maintained home instead of one that needs work.
Rolling Hills Property Services Inc has been protecting Suffolk County driveways for years. We’re not some big corporation that treats every job the same.
We live here. We know what coastal salt air and freeze-thaw cycles do to your pavement. We understand Mount Sinai’s sandy soil conditions and drainage challenges.
You get materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s climate, not generic products that work somewhere else. Every job includes proper surface preparation because we know shortcuts cost you thousands later.
First, we completely clean your asphalt with power washing to remove dirt, oil stains, and debris. Any vegetation growing through cracks gets removed because proper preparation determines how well the sealer bonds.
Next, we fill cracks larger than 1/4 inch with hot rubberized filler. This prevents water from getting underneath and causing more damage during winter freeze-thaw cycles.
Then we apply two coats of commercial-grade sealer mixed with sand for better traction and durability. You get clear instructions for cure time – typically 24-48 hours depending on temperature and humidity. We’ll also explain when you should plan for your next application, usually every 2-3 years for residential driveways.

Every sealcoating job includes complete surface preparation, crack filling for cracks larger than 1/4 inch, and two coats of commercial-grade sealer designed specifically for Suffolk County’s coastal conditions.
Mount Sinai’s location means your asphalt faces extra challenges from salt air and temperature swings. Our material selection and application process account for these local conditions – you’re not getting a generic approach that works somewhere else.
Most residential driveways take 2-4 hours including prep work and both coats. You can walk on the surface after about 4-6 hours, but wait 24-48 hours before driving on it. We provide clear marking if needed and give you specific timing based on conditions the day we complete your project.
Most Mount Sinai driveways need sealcoating every 2-3 years. The timeline depends on traffic, weather exposure, and the quality of previous applications.
If your asphalt is starting to look gray instead of black, or you can see aggregate showing through, it’s time. Mount Sinai’s coastal location means your driveway faces extra stress from salt air and temperature swings compared to inland properties.
Regular sealcoating every 2-3 years prevents minor surface cracks from widening into larger problems that require expensive repairs.
Late spring through early fall works best – typically May through October. You need at least 48 hours of dry weather and temperatures above 50 degrees for proper curing.
Summer is ideal because warm temperatures help the sealer flow and bond correctly. We avoid scheduling right before winter because the coating needs time to fully cure before facing freeze-thaw cycles.
We monitor weather forecasts carefully and will reschedule if conditions aren’t right. Weather timing matters because your coating needs proper curing time to perform correctly.
Sealcoating fills hairline cracks and prevents new ones from forming, but larger cracks need separate crack filling first. Cracks wider than 1/4 inch get filled with hot rubberized filler before we apply the sealer.
This prevents water from getting underneath and causing more damage during Mount Sinai’s freeze-thaw cycles. However, if your driveway has major structural issues, alligatoring, or large potholes, you might need repairs before sealcoating will be effective.
We’ll assess your driveway’s condition and let you know exactly what’s needed during our initial visit.
Professional sealcoating typically costs $0.15-$0.25 per square foot for residential driveways. A standard two-car driveway usually runs $300-600 depending on size and condition.
DIY materials might seem cheaper upfront, but homeowner-grade sealers are often thinner and don’t last as long. Plus, most DIY jobs fail because of inadequate surface prep or application mistakes.
When you factor in equipment rental, materials, and your time, professional application often costs less and definitely lasts longer. We provide detailed estimates with no hidden costs.
Most sealcoating failures happen because companies skip proper prep work or use watered-down materials. Some contractors spray sealcoat to work faster, but this creates thin coverage that doesn’t protect your driveway.
Mount Sinai’s coastal conditions require materials specifically designed for salt air and freeze-thaw cycles. Generic approaches that work elsewhere often fail here within a year or two.
We don’t cut corners because we know you’re trying to avoid a major expense, not create one. Proper surface cleaning, crack filling, and using commercial-grade materials designed for Long Island weather makes the difference.
You can walk on the surface after about 4-6 hours, but wait 24-48 hours before driving on it. Temperature and humidity affect cure time – cooler weather means longer wait times.
Mount Sinai’s coastal humidity can extend curing time compared to inland areas. We’ll give you specific timing based on conditions the day of application and provide clear marking if needed.
Most residential driveways take 2-4 hours to complete including prep work and two coats. We schedule around your needs and provide clear instructions so you know exactly when it’s safe to use your driveway again.
