Resealing Your Concrete

Concrete is a popular choice for walkways, pavers, and driveways because of its durability. Despite costing more than asphalt, it remains popular because it lasts much longer than asphalt. It can withstand cold, heat, rain, dirt, dust, and other debris. However, you still need to take care of it and protect it to allow it to last as long as possible.

Sealing your concrete is one simple and effective way to protect the concrete from the harmful effects of road salt, rain, dirt, and other debris. If not cleaned properly, these things can damage your concrete over time. Sealing your concrete provides a protective barrier for your concrete against these harmful substances. However, few property owners know when they should reseal their concrete. The answer is every 2-5 years. The frequency depends on your local climate, how often the concrete is used or driven upon, and the presence of harmful substances that can damage your concrete.
