Driveway Sealing Details

  • Apply Only a High-Quality Penetrating Sealer – Tri-Siloxane and Silane are commonly used penetrating concrete sealers. There are several brand names of this type of sealer sealer. Silicon-based, they penetrates the surface of the concrete and repels water, oils, road salt, and other contaminants. Normally applied with a roller, once it dries it is completely invisible and doesn’t affect the appearance of your concrete at all.
  • Apply Sealer for the First Time after 30 Days – When your concrete was installed, Richfield Concrete applied a curing agent to help the concrete retain moisture and cure properly. After 30 days, this curing agent dissipates. That’s the ideal time to apply the first coat of penetrating concrete sealer. By getting protection for your concrete from the very beginning, you’ll be protecting it right away.
  • Reapply Sealer Every 3-5 Years – Properly applied penetrating concrete sealer will last up to five years. To continue protecting your concrete, you should apply sealer again on a regular schedule. This is your best assurance of a great looking driveway that lasts and lasts.

Do it Yourself or Have Someone Else Seal Your Concrete Driveway

Sealing your concrete isn’t difficult. You can apply the sealer with a nap roller on an extension handle, after thoroughly cleaning your driveway. Richfield Concrete recommends power washing the driveway thoroughly and letting it dry before sealing.
