New construction in the Rice area means hundreds of driveways entering their first sealcoating cycle. Benton County's freeze-thaw conditions demand timely protection.
We use polymer-modified asphalt emulsion sealcoating — not coal tar (banned in Minneapolis/St. Paul and increasingly restricted statewide). Our products are formulated for Minnesota's extreme temperature swings, flexing with freeze-thaw cycles instead of cracking. Every job includes surface prep, crack filling, two-coat squeegee application, and a 24–48 hour cure inspection.
