We price by size — approximately $0.70/sq ft with a $200 minimum. Driveways over 1,000 sq ft get a custom on-site quote. That one price includes everything: pressure washing, crack filling, hot-rubber repair for wide or deep cracks, oil-stain treatment, and a premium commercial-grade sealcoat. No surprise add-ons — ever.

A professionally applied sealcoat typically lasts 3–5 years in the National Capital Region, depending on traffic, weather exposure, and how promptly cracks are addressed. Re-sealing every 3–4 years keeps your driveway fully protected from our freeze-thaw cycles and looking its best year-round.

Most driveways are walkable in 4–6 hours and ready for vehicles in 24–48 hours, depending on temperature and humidity. We'll give you an exact window when we finish the job. Warm, sunny days speed the curing process considerably — same-evening walk-on is common in the summer.

Late spring through early fall — any time daytime temps are consistently above 10°C with no rain expected for 24 hours. Late August or early September is ideal: the asphalt has expanded through summer heat and you're protecting it right before the first hard freeze. Sealing before winter is the single best defence against Ottawa's brutal freeze-thaw cycles.
