Professional parking lot sealcoating in Aurora, CO helps property owners protect asphalt from water infiltration, UV oxidation, chemicals, traffic wear, and weather exposure while restoring a darker, more uniform pavement surface and delaying premature deterioration. Reviewing contractor credentials, written estimates, pavement assessments, sealcoat specifications, comparable projects, warranties, and customer feedback is essential when selecting a parking lot sealcoating contractor in Aurora. Asphalt Coatings Company is a commercial asphalt sealcoating contractor serving Aurora and Colorado’s Front Range since 1986 with experienced crews and commercial pavement-maintenance capabilities.
Asphalt Coatings Company provides pavement inspection, surface cleaning, debris removal, crack sealing, sealcoat application, parking lot restriping, final inspection, and future maintenance recommendations. Commercial service coverage extends throughout Aurora, including Original Aurora, North Aurora, Del Mar Parkway, Northwest Aurora, Meadowood, Mission Viejo, Murphy Creek, Saddle Rock, and surrounding commercial districts. Parking lot sealcoating costs in Aurora depend on total square footage, existing pavement condition, cleaning requirements, crack repairs, surface contamination, sealcoat quantity, application requirements, striping, traffic control, and project scheduling. Each sealcoating project begins with an inspection that identifies oxidation, cracking, potholes, loose surface material, drainage concerns, oil contamination, and other defects before determining whether the pavement is suitable for coating or requires repair first. Surface preparation can include removing dirt and debris, cleaning contaminated areas, repairing potholes, sealing eligible cracks, and preparing pavement edges before an industry-approved sealant is applied to the asphalt surface.
Sealcoating is a preventive treatment rather than a structural repair, so significant cracking, potholes, base failure, or deteriorated pavement should be corrected before the coating is installed. After application, the sealcoat requires adequate drying and curing before traffic returns, with Aurora projects commonly requiring approximately 24 to 48 hours depending on temperature, humidity, and site conditions. Sealcoating is best scheduled during warm, dry weather when temperatures support proper material curing and adhesion, and Aurora commercial parking lots commonly require treatment every two to three years depending on traffic, pavement condition, exposure, and previous maintenance. These services protect parking lots and paved areas for retail centers, office parks, apartment communities, industrial facilities, healthcare properties, schools, commercial developments, and other high-traffic sites throughout Aurora. Climate-specific sealcoating helps local asphalt resist freeze-thaw exposure, snowmelt, moisture infiltration, high-altitude UV exposure, vehicle fluids, oxidation, heavy traffic, and seasonal temperature fluctuations.
- Reduced Water Infiltration: A protective sealcoat limits rain and snowmelt from penetrating the asphalt surface and contributing to pavement deterioration.
- UV and Oxidation Protection: Sealcoating reduces direct environmental exposure that causes asphalt binder oxidation, fading, brittleness, and surface wear.
- Improved Accessibility: Clearly marked accessible spaces, access aisles, symbols, ramps, and pedestrian routes support safer and more functional property access.
- Protection from Vehicle Fluids: A properly applied coating helps protect asphalt against oil, fuel, and other petroleum-based contaminants commonly found in parking areas.
- Longer Pavement Life: Periodic sealcoating combined with crack repair and routine maintenance slows surface deterioration and delays more extensive rehabilitation.
- Lower Lifecycle Costs: Preventive surface protection can reduce the frequency of extensive asphalt repair, resurfacing, and premature pavement replacement.
- Improved Property Appearance: Sealcoating restores a darker, more uniform pavement surface and provides a clean background for refreshed parking lot markings.
- Better Pavement Maintenance: Pre-application inspection identifies cracks, potholes, drainage problems, and other defects that should be corrected before protective coating.
- Reduced Property Disruption: Coordinated and phased sealcoating helps maintain planned access for customers, tenants, employees, residents, delivery vehicles, and commercial operations.

Asphalt Sealcoating Services by Application Type in Aurora
Asphalt Coatings Company has sealed commercial pavement across Aurora and Colorado’s Front Range since 1986, applying every coat with truck-mounted spray equipment and adjusting the sand additive to the traction each surface actually needs.
Commercial Parking Lot Sealcoating in Aurora
Asphalt Coatings Company applies a two-coat spray application of coal tar emulsion or asphalt emulsion to commercial parking lots, with a silica sand additive for traction on slopes. The first coat penetrates the asphalt pores and restores binder degraded by UV radiation. The second builds a protective surface film that blocks oxidation, repels water, and resists petroleum-based chemical spills.
Coal Tar Emulsion Sealcoating
The harder-wearing of the two systems, specified where the lot takes heavy traffic and regular exposure to fuel and oil.
- Two-coat spray application
- Superior UV and chemical resistance
- Sand additive for traction
- Restores a dark, uniform appearance
- 2 to 3 year protection cycle
Asphalt Emulsion Sealcoating
A lower-emission formulation that delivers effective UV and water protection, and the option some municipalities and boards prefer.
- Environmentally friendlier formulation
- Two-coat spray application
- Effective UV and water protection
- Lower VOC emissions
- Preferred by some municipalities
Sealcoat + Crack Seal + Re-Stripe Bundle
The three treatments sequenced correctly in one visit, so the sealcoat goes over a closed surface and the lot comes back fully marked.
- Hot-pour crack sealing first
- Two-coat sealcoat application
- Full lot re-striping after cure
- Single mobilisation means lower cost
- Complete maintenance in one project
Drive Lane & Access Road Sealcoating in Aurora
Commercial drive lanes need a higher sand additive ratio than parking stalls, because traction matters most where vehicles brake and turn. The sand-to-sealcoat ratio is adjusted to hold skid resistance while still delivering full UV and water protection, and sealing these lanes prevents the rutting and ravelling that follow once UV oxidation has weakened the binder.
Commercial Drive Lane Sealcoating
The aisles every vehicle on the property uses, sealed with the additional sand that braking and turning traffic requires.
- Heavy sand additive for traction
- Two-coat spray application
- Prevents rutting from tyre wear
- Protects against fuel and oil drips
- Extends drive lane surface life
Industrial Access Road Sealcoating
Access roads on distribution and industrial sites, sealed with the maximum sand additive and a formulation built for chemical exposure.
- Heavy-duty sealcoat formulation
- Maximum sand additive for truck traffic
- Chemical resistance for industrial sites
- Aggregate lock to prevent ravelling
- Coordinated with crack sealing
Entry & Exit Approach Sealcoating
Targeted sealing of the approaches, where turning radii concentrate wear into a small area and ravelling starts first.
- Targeted application on high-wear zones
- Sand additive for turning traction
- Prevents turning-radius ravelling
- Coordinated with full lot sealcoating
- Extends approach surface life
HOA Community Road Sealcoating in Aurora
HOA road sealcoating turns on coordination as much as material: residents have to move vehicles, the application has to be phased so access is never lost, and the material choice has to balance performance against the environmental preferences a board may hold. We work with boards and property managers to plan projects that minimise disruption while protecting the pavement against Aurora's UV exposure and freeze-thaw cycling.
HOA Street Sealcoating
Community roadways sealed on a rolling schedule, with the resident coordination that keeps every home accessible throughout.
- Phased application for resident access
- Resident notification coordination
- Vehicle relocation management
- Coal tar or asphalt emulsion options
- HOA board reporting and documentation
HOA Parking Area Sealcoating
The shared surfaces a community owns collectively, from visitor parking through to the garage aprons residents use daily.
- Common-area parking protection
- Visitor lot sealcoating
- Garage apron protection
- Curb appeal restoration
- Bundled with crack sealing
Multi-Year HOA Maintenance Plans
A sealing schedule an association can budget against, documented so it survives a change of board.
- 3 to 5 year maintenance schedules
- Annual pavement condition updates
- Predictable budget planning
- Board presentation-ready reports
- Reserve study support documentation
Signs Your Aurora Parking Lot Needs Sealcoating
Sealcoating is a timing decision more than a condition one. Applied early it costs little and returns years; applied late it covers a surface that has already begun coming apart. The six signs below run in the order a lot usually shows them, and Asphalt Coatings Company uses them to tell an owner whether the surface is ready for sealer or needs repair first.
Grey, Oxidised Surface Colour
Ultraviolet radiation at Aurora’s altitude breaks down the asphalt binder, the black oil-based compound holding the aggregate together. As the binder degrades, the surface moves from deep black to progressively lighter grey, and grey means the binder has lost its flexibility and its waterproofing. It is the earliest and most visible sign that a lot needs sealcoating, and the pavement is actively deteriorating by the time you can see it.
Two-coat sealcoat application to restore binder protection and block further UV degradation.
Loose Aggregate on the Surface
Once the binder degrades past a critical threshold it can no longer hold the aggregate stones in place, and loose gravel appears across the surface, particularly along edges and in high-traffic areas. Ravelling accelerates rapidly once it starts, because every stone lost exposes more binder to UV and water attack.
Sealcoating with aggregate lock, where the sealcoat penetrates and re-bonds the surface layer.
Visible Stone Texture
Advanced oxidation erodes the smooth asphalt surface layer and exposes the aggregate beneath, leaving a surface that is rough, porous, and permeable to water. Water penetrating that porous surface freezes through Aurora’s winter, expands by 9%, and breaks the pavement apart from within. Exposed aggregate means sealcoating is overdue, though still effective if applied before structural cracking develops.
Immediate sealcoating to waterproof the surface before freeze-thaw damage begins.
Fine Hairline Cracking
When the binder becomes brittle from UV exposure, the surface develops a network of fine hairline cracks known as checking or crazing. These are too small to seal individually but they signal advanced oxidation, and left alone they widen through Aurora’s temperature swings into the water-entry points that cause base failure.
Sealcoating that fills the micro-cracks and restores surface flexibility before they widen.
Oil Stains Penetrating the Surface
Unsealed asphalt absorbs petroleum-based fluids from parked vehicles: motor oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and fuel. Those chemicals dissolve the asphalt binder, creating soft spots that deform under tyre pressure and eventually become depressions and potholes.
Sealcoating that creates a chemical-resistant barrier between petroleum fluids and the asphalt binder.
Faded, Worn Appearance
A grey, worn-looking lot signals neglected maintenance to tenants, customers, and investors, and parking lot condition carries directly into how a property is valued. Beyond appearance, the fading reflects genuine structural deterioration happening beneath the surface rather than merely on it.

Commercial Asphalt Paving Projects Completed in Aurora
Asphalt Coatings Company has paved, rehabilitated, and maintained commercial property throughout the Aurora metro area since 1986. We sequence each project around the tenants, trucks, and residents who use the surface every day, and we diagnose the cause of a failure before we scope the work, because that diagnosis changes the phasing and the final cost.
Coal Tar vs Asphalt Emulsion Sealcoat for Aurora Lots
Both sealcoat systems go down as a two-coat spray application and both hold for two to three years in Aurora, so the choice between them turns on exposure rather than longevity. Asphalt Coatings Company specifies coal tar where traffic and petroleum contact are heaviest, and asphalt emulsion where a board or municipality prefers the lower-emission formulation. Each factor below is where the two genuinely differ.
| Factor | Coal Tar Emulsion | Asphalt Emulsion |
|---|---|---|
| UV Resistance | Excellent, superior UV blocking | Good, adequate UV protection |
| Chemical Resistance | Excellent, resists oil, fuel and transmission fluid | Moderate, less resistant to petroleum |
| Environmental Impact | Higher PAH content, with some restrictions | Lower environmental impact |
| Cure Time | 24 to 48 hours | 24 to 48 hours |
| Minimum Application Temperature | 50°F air and rising | 50°F air and rising |
| Appearance After Application | Deep, uniform black finish | Dark finish with a slightly warmer tone |
| Best Application | Commercial lots, fuel stations, high-traffic surfaces | HOA roads, light commercial, eco-conscious properties |
| Lifespan in Aurora | 2 to 3 years | 2 to 3 years |
| ACC Recommendation | Commercial parking lots and high-traffic areas | HOA communities and eco-preference properties |
Quality Parking Lot Sealcoating in Aurora Applied by Experienced In-House Crews
Sealcoating every two to three years protects asphalt from water, oil, and UV rays and extends the interval before resurfacing. Contact Asphalt Coatings Company for a free evaluation, an honest assessment of whether your lot is ready, and a written scope.
Advantages of Hiring ACC for Sealcoating in Aurora
Sealcoating is sold on price more often than any other pavement service, which is exactly why the preparation gets cut. Asphalt Coatings Company has sealed Front Range commercial pavement from an Aurora address since 1986, and the points below are what we do not cut.
Honest Candidacy Assessment
We tell you whether the lot is ready for sealer. A surface that is ravelling generally, ponding, or showing lattice cracking needs repair or resurfacing, and sealing it first wastes the money and hides the condition.
Preparation Before Application
The surface is swept and cleaned, oil spots are primed, vegetation is cleared, and open cracks are hot-sealed before any sealer is applied. Sealer bonds to clean asphalt and to nothing else.
The 2–3 Year Interval, Scheduled
Sealcoating every two to three years protects asphalt from water, oil, and UV rays. We schedule the next application rather than leaving it to be remembered, which is how intervals slip to five or six years.
Striping Restored by the Same Crew
Sealcoating covers every marking on the lot, so the restripe is part of the job, not a second contractor and a second mobilisation. It is also the moment we review ADA stalls, access aisles, and signage.
In-House Crews, Full Lifecycle
The same company that seals your lot also patches, crack-seals, mills, and paves it. If the assessment finds the surface needs more than sealer, the repair does not require finding another contractor.
Based in Aurora Since 1986
Our yard sits at 16275 E 2nd Ave in Aurora, and crews stage from there. Sealcoating is weather-dependent work, and being inside the city means we can move quickly when a dry window opens.
How ACC Delivers Sealcoating in Aurora
From your first call to the final walkthrough, a sealcoating project with Asphalt Coatings Company follows five steps designed to confirm the lot is ready, prepare it properly, apply the coat, restore the markings, and set the next interval.
Free Pavement Assessment
Asphalt Coatings Company inspects the lot for oxidation, cracking, drainage issues, and oil staining, measures the total square footage, and recommends the right sealcoat material for the application.
Crack Sealing First
We seal every crack with hot-pour rubberized sealant before any sealcoating begins, creating the watertight surface that makes the sealcoat application worth applying.
Surface Cleaning & Prep
We clean the pavement with power blowers, treat oil stains with primer, and edge along curbs and structures. Clean surfaces are what give proper sealcoat adhesion and uniform coverage.
Two-Coat Sealcoat Application
We apply two full coats through a truck-mounted spray system with sand additive. The first coat penetrates to restore the binder, the second builds the protective surface film. Cure time is 24 to 48 hours.
Re-Striping & Walkthrough
Once the sealcoat has cured we re-stripe every pavement marking in traffic-grade latex paint, walk the completed project with you, and set the date for the next sealcoating.
Property Types ACC Serves with Sealcoating in Aurora
Sealcoating scheduling is dictated entirely by when a property can afford to close sections of its lot. A retail centre cannot lose the rows by the doors, a church has a quiet week and a busy Sunday, and a school hands you an empty campus in summer. Select a property type to see how we approach it.
Retail Centers
Retail lots trade on appearance and accessibility, and a faded grey surface costs a centre twice before a tenant ever complains. Asphalt Coatings Company uses sealcoat to restore a consistent black finish to the lot, and we restore ADA-compliant striping alongside the sealcoat so the finished layout remains usable and compliant.
Oil and fuel contamination concentrates in the rows nearest the entrances, which is exactly where a poor sealcoat fails first. Those areas are cleaned and primed before application.
Office Parks
Office lots typically show their age through oxidation and faded striping rather than structural failure, which means a sealcoat and re-stripe cycle often restores the property without any reconstruction at all.
Office properties cannot surrender tenant parking during business hours, so ACC seals one bay or drive aisle at a time and schedules the cure window into evenings and weekends where the property allows.
HOA Communities
HOA boards need a scope they can present, defend, and budget against. Sealcoating on a scheduled cycle is the single most cost-effective way an association can protect its pavement from Aurora's UV exposure, water infiltration, and freeze-thaw cycling.
Asphalt Coatings Company seals community roadways on a rolling schedule so residents always keep access to their homes, and we document the interval so the board can plan the next application against its reserve funds.
Industrial & Distribution
Warehouse and distribution properties usually need repair before they need sealer, because loaded axle traffic at docks and truck routes damages pavement structurally rather than cosmetically. ACC assesses those zones separately from the passenger parking field.
Where the surface is sound, sealing the car park and access drives protects the asset that is not yet carrying heavy loads and keeps the property presenting well to visiting customers and drivers.
Churches & Nonprofits
Institutional lots see concentrated weekly peaks and long quiet stretches between them. Asphalt Coatings Company uses the quieter periods to seal an entire property without closing the lot when the congregation actually needs it.
Budget cycles matter here as much as scheduling, so phasing a sealcoat across seasons or into a maintenance program spreads the cost against how these organisations actually plan their spending.
Schools & Universities
School properties hand a contractor one reliable advantage: a predictable empty window. ACC schedules sealcoating into breaks and summer so bus loops, pickup lanes, staff parking, and parent circulation are returned before term resumes.
Because sealer covers every marking, the restripe that follows is the moment to reset crosswalks, bus lanes, and drop-off circulation rather than copying the old layout back down.
Hotels & Hospitality
Hospitality properties cannot close a lot to arriving guests. Asphalt Coatings Company phases sealing so arrivals, departures, valet routes, and service access all continue, concentrating the work in the lowest-occupancy window the property can identify.
A freshly sealed and restriped arrival area is one of the first things a guest sees, which makes the surface difference commercial as well as protective.
Auto Dealerships
Dealership lots are a sales floor. Surface appearance directly affects how inventory presents, so sealcoating and crisp display striping carry commercial weight beyond simple maintenance.
ACC phases the work around inventory movement so display rows are released back in sequence and the lot never loses more capacity than the schedule requires.
Healthcare Facilities
Healthcare campuses carry obligations ordinary commercial lots do not, and sealer closes a surface for hours rather than minutes. Asphalt Coatings Company phases sealing so emergency routes, patient drop-off, and accessible parking are never closed at the same time, and restores ADA stalls and signage as each section reopens.
Round-the-clock operation narrows the work window for the crew, which makes cure time the governing constraint on these properties rather than application time.
Municipal & Government
Public properties specify the sealer, the number of coats, and the documentation that follows. Asphalt Coatings Company applies to the specified material and coverage rate, coordinates closures with municipal permitting, and restores the marked lot to its completed condition for inspection.
Material choice is often as much a policy requirement as a performance choice, and both coal tar and asphalt emulsion are applied to the same standard on the specified site.
Get Started with Sealcoating in Aurora
Serving Aurora & the Front Range with Commercial Asphalt Paving
Aurora is Colorado's third-largest city, and its commercial pavement carries a workload most Front Range municipalities never see. Freight moves through the I-70, I-225, and E-470 corridors on its way to and from Denver International Airport, filling the northern and eastern edges of the city with distribution centres, truck yards, and loading docks where loaded semi-trailer axles concentrate weight on a few square feet of surface at a time.

ACC serves commercial properties throughout Aurora and the broader Front Range, including retail centres, office parks, industrial sites, distribution facilities, apartment and HOA communities, healthcare campuses, schools, hotels, municipal properties, and new commercial developments.
Frequently Asked Questions About Sealcoating in Aurora
Answers to common questions from Aurora property managers, businesses, and HOA boards about commercial sealcoating, timing, preparation, and what sealer can and cannot fix.
How often should a commercial lot be sealcoated?
Every two to three years. That interval protects asphalt against water, oil, and UV rays, and holding it keeps the binder from oxidising to the point where aggregate begins releasing from the surface.
How do I know when my lot needs sealcoating?
Colour tells you most of it. Fresh asphalt is black and oxidised asphalt drifts toward grey. If the surface also feels rough underfoot, or aggregate is collecting loose along the edges, the binder has begun letting the stone go and the sealcoat is overdue.
What does sealcoating actually protect against?
Water, oil, and UV rays, which are the three agents that cause asphalt to wear out fastest. Ultraviolet radiation breaks down the binder holding the aggregate together, and Aurora's elevation intensifies that exposure.
How can I protect my asphalt?
It starts with regular maintenance, meaning sealcoating, filling cracks, and keeping debris off the surface. Sealcoating every 2–3 years protects asphalt from water, oil, and UV rays, which are what make it wear out faster, while addressing small cracks as they appear stops them expanding and weakening the pavement. Minimising heavy loads and draining water properly rather than letting it stand also extends the life.
Does sealcoating make a lot last longer?
It extends the interval before resurfacing by protecting the binder from the exposure that breaks it down. Service life still depends on the strength of the base, the thickness of the asphalt, and how well water drains off the surface, but sealcoating on a two to three year cycle is one of the two practices that most reliably extends it.
Can sealcoating fix cracks?
No. Sealer is a protective coating, not a crack filler. Cracks are routed, cleaned, and hot-sealed before the sealcoat is applied, because sealer sprayed across an open crack leaves the water path into the base fully intact.
Can sealcoating fix potholes?
No. A pothole is the final stage of untreated cracking, and it needs saw-cut removal, base repair, and a compacted hot mix patch. Sealer applied over or around a pothole changes nothing about why it formed.
What if my lot has alligator cracking?
Cracking in an interconnected lattice pattern generally indicates that the base beneath the asphalt has failed rather than the surface alone. Sealing that area is purely cosmetic. Those sections need full-depth patching with base repair, or mill and overlay where the cracking has spread across a wide area.
My lot is shedding loose stone. Is it too late to seal?
It depends how far the ravelling has gone. Early, localised ravelling can still be sealed. Once the surface is releasing aggregate generally across the lot, there is no longer sound material for the sealer to bond to and the surface course needs replacing.
Will sealcoating fix standing water?
No. Sealer follows the existing surface, so a low area that ponds will still pond. Standing water saturates the base and shortens pavement life, so the grade needs correcting before sealing that section is worth doing.
Will you tell me if my lot does not need sealing yet?
Yes. A lot that was sealed recently and still presents well does not need another coat on a calendar reminder alone. The assessment tells you where the surface actually is and when the next application should fall.
What preparation happens before sealer is applied?
The surface is swept and cleaned, loose aggregate and debris are removed, vegetation is cleared from cracks and edges, oil and fuel spots are cleaned and primed, and open cracks are routed and hot-sealed. Sealer bonds to clean asphalt and to nothing else.
Why do oil spots need special treatment?
Oil and fuel dissolve asphalt binder and prevent sealer bonding. Coated directly, the sealcoat lifts in the exact drip pattern where vehicles park, which is the most visible part of the lot. Priming those areas is what stops that happening.
How long does sealcoating take to cure?
Cure time depends on temperature, humidity, and sun exposure on the day. We state the specific window for your project before the crew leaves the site, and we keep sections closed until they are ready, because reopening early sets tyre marks into the finish for the rest of the cycle.
Does striping need redoing after sealcoating?
Yes. Sealer covers every marking on the lot, so re-striping is part of the same job rather than a separate contract. It is also the moment to correct a layout, add accessible stalls, or improve circulation, because the surface is already blank.
Does my business have to close during sealcoating?
Most commercial projects proceed in phases so the property keeps operating. We sequence sections in turn, which lets tenants park and customers arrive while one area cures and the next stays open.
Can you work nights or weekends?
Yes. Application and cure time are scheduled around your operations, using nights, weekends, or phased sections so tenants and customers keep reaching the doors.
How much does sealcoating cost in Aurora?
We do not publish a per-square-foot rate, because a number quoted without seeing the property is a guess rather than a price. Cost depends on total surface area, surface condition and cleaning required, oil spot treatment, crack sealing quantities, the number of coats, striping restoration, closure phasing, and access. Every project starts with a free on-site assessment and a written scope with itemized pricing.
Why is one sealcoating quote so much cheaper than another?
Almost always because of what is excluded. Preparation, oil spot priming, crack sealing, coverage rate, and restriping are all the items that get cut to reach a low number, and each one shortens how long the coat lasts.
Can maintenance reduce long-term cost?
Yes. Sealed cracks keep water out of the base, and a dry base is what prevents the structural failures that force reconstruction. Holding a scheduled cycle also converts unpredictable emergency repairs into a budgeted cost you can plan years ahead.
What does a maintenance program include?
It fixes the schedule instead of waiting for failures to force the issue. Across a five-year term that usually means annual pothole repair, crack sealing, and two sealcoat applications, structured around the annual bank and city inspections the property already answers to.
Is an assessment free?
Yes. A project manager inspects the surface, confirms whether it is ready for sealer, and returns a written scope at no cost and with no obligation.
Do you provide itemized pricing?
Yes. Preparation, repair, and striping are priced as separate line items rather than folded into one square-foot rate, and the scope carries the timeline and maintenance plan options, so an owner, a board, or a lender can see exactly what is being approved.
What time of year is best for sealcoating in Aurora?
Sealer needs warm, dry conditions to cure properly, which makes the warmer months the working window along the Front Range. Rain or cold arriving before a section has cured is the main risk, which is why we watch the forecast rather than the calendar.
Will weather delay the work?
It can. Our team closely monitors weather forecasts and will keep you updated on any necessary schedule adjustments to ensure a quality finish. Applying sealer into unsuitable conditions produces a coat that will not perform, so we would rather move the date.
Should crack sealing be done at the same time?
Crack sealing happens before the sealcoat as part of the same visit. Separately, crack sealing works best before winter arrives, because sealing keeps water out of the base ahead of the freeze cycle that widens cracks.
How long after new asphalt can a lot be sealed?
A new surface needs to cure before it accepts sealer. We give the specific interval at handover, and we build the first application into the maintenance recommendation so it is scheduled rather than forgotten.
What happens after the work is finished?
We walk the sealed and striped lot with you, confirm coverage against the approved scope, and book the next application on the two to three year interval so it is not left to memory.
Why should I choose Asphalt Coatings Company?
Quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction are what separate a sealcoat that lasts from one that does not. Experienced in-house crews and a full fleet of equipment let us control every aspect of the job, from scheduling to execution, without relying on subcontractors, which keeps it flexible, consistent, and inside the agreed timeline and budget. Tailored maintenance programs hold the two to three year cycle, and our customer service stays responsive throughout.
Do you use subcontractors?
No. Preparation, sealing, and striping are all carried out by our own crews with our own equipment, which is how the one-crew sealcoat interval is held.
How long have you been in business?
Since 1986, which now represents over 40 years of commercial pavement work in Colorado.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Licensing and insurance are current, and we will provide the documentation on request. Most property managers and boards want it on file before a crew is scheduled onto the lot.
Are you actually based in Aurora?
Yes. Asphalt Coatings Company works from 16275 E 2nd Ave, Aurora, CO 80011, and the Aurora number is (720) 526-3240. Crews and equipment stage from that yard, which is how we move when a dry window opens.
Do you work with HOA communities in Aurora?
Yes. HOA internal roadways are a regular part of our work. We seal on a rolling schedule so residents keep access, and we document the interval so the board can plan the next application against its reserve fund.
Why does Aurora's elevation matter for sealcoating?
Aurora sits at 5,471 feet, and thinner atmosphere at that elevation admits more ultraviolet radiation to every exposed pavement surface in the city. UV is what breaks down the binder holding the aggregate together, which is precisely what a sealcoat blocks.
