Parking lot sealcoating protects your asphalt from sun, water, oil, and oxidation while restoring a clean, uniform black finish. Apex Asphalt San Jose has served San Jose since 2018, delivering commercial-grade sealcoat programs built around your traffic flow and downtime needs.
Prep determines whether sealcoat bonds or peels, so we start with a full pavement evaluation and clear scope. Crews remove debris, treat oil spots with detergent and primer, cut out and patch failed areas with hot-mix asphalt where needed, and route and seal active cracks with hot rubberized crack filler. We then power broom and blow the surface clean and dry, block off traffic, and protect storm drains and concrete edges before any sealer goes down.
San Jose lots see strong UV, heat cycles, and oil drips that harden and oxidize asphalt, so we specify sealer and sand load for traction and durability instead of a thin cosmetic coat. We typically apply commercial asphalt emulsion sealcoat in two coats using a squeegee-and-spray method for even coverage and tight edge work, with silica sand added as needed for skid resistance. After cure, we coordinate striping and markings (stalls, fire lanes, ADA/accessible symbols, crosswalks, directional arrows) using traffic-grade waterborne paint so your lot reopens organized and compliant.
San Jose property managers choose us because we run sealcoating like a jobsite, not a quick splash coat. You get clear scheduling for low-traffic hours, consistent crew supervision, and a plan that prioritizes drainage, crack movement, and patch transitions so the finish wears evenly. We are licensed and insured, provide written proposals, and use professional equipment including power sweepers, air blowers, melter applicators for crack sealant, squeegee machines, and spray rigs to deliver repeatable results across small and large lots.
Before we leave, we walk the lot with you to confirm coverage, edges, and cure protection, and we document any areas that should be patched or overlaid in a future phase. You receive re-open times, barricading guidance, and maintenance recommendations (spot-cleaning oil, keeping water moving to drains, and timing for the next coat) to extend the life of the pavement. If you also need crack sealing, pothole repair, infrared patching, or restriping, we can bundle the work so your parking lot gets one shutdown and one coordinated finish.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate that lists the recommended scope, measured quantities, and the materials and steps included.
Yes. We regularly transition asphalt to garage slabs, sidewalks, and existing concrete, using clean sawcut edges where needed and proper compaction at the joint to reduce separation.
Repair scope depends on the failure, but may include sawcut and removal, base rebuild with aggregate, compaction, hot mix placement, and edge sealing. We can also add crack sealing and sealcoating where appropriate.
Yes. We stripe stalls, arrows, fire lanes, and accessible markings, and we can coordinate layouts for re-striping after paving or sealcoating.
Yes. For active businesses, we can phase paving or resurfacing, set cure windows, and plan access routes to reduce downtime.
Parking lot sealcoating is one of the most cost-effective ways to slow asphalt aging and keep a commercial property looking maintained. A quality sealcoat system forms a protective film over the pavement to reduce oxidation from UV, limit water intrusion, and resist damage from gasoline, motor oil, and de-icing chemicals. Apex Asphalt San Jose builds sealcoating plans around real site conditions, including traffic volume, turning movements, drainage paths, and the current crack and patch profile of your lot.
A proper parking lot sealcoating job starts with the base: sound asphalt, stable patches, and sealed cracks. If a lot has potholes, alligator cracking, or base failure, sealer alone will not solve it. We identify where hot-mix patching, infrared repairs, or a mill-and-overlay makes more sense, then sealcoat the remaining serviceable pavement so your budget goes where it performs.
For most commercial lots, we recommend sealcoating on a routine cycle based on traffic and exposure rather than a calendar promise. After cleaning and repairs, we apply asphalt emulsion sealcoat with the right sand load for traction, then protect the surface during cure with barricades and clear re-open guidance. Once cured, we can stripe stalls and fire lanes, paint curb returns, and add directional arrows and accessible markings so the lot is safe and easy to navigate.
If you want parking lot sealcoating in San Jose that holds up beyond the first few months, request a written estimate. We will measure the paved area, review drainage and crack conditions, confirm access and cure time needs, and provide a scope that includes prep, materials, application method, and optional restriping so you can approve with confidence.
Call now or send a request and we will reach out within one business day to schedule your free, no-obligation estimate in San Jose. We assess the project, review the details, and give you a written quote before any work starts, so you know exactly what to expect.
