Driveway Sealing

Why Driveway Sealing is Essential for Your Property

Driveway sealing protects your concrete from water, salt, oil, and surface wear—especially in harsh Canadian climates. It prevents cracks, stains, and erosion while enhancing your driveway’s color and finish. Regular sealing keeps your driveway looking clean, polished, and built to last.

The Steps To Success

The formula we follow at Diamond

STEP 1

Surface Cleaning & Preparation

We start by thoroughly cleaning your driveway using commercial-grade power washing. This removes built-up dirt, oil stains, salt, and debris. A clean surface is essential to ensure the sealer adheres properly and delivers long-lasting protection.

STEP 2

Crack & Joint Filling

Before sealing, we inspect the entire surface for cracks and gaps. Using high-quality crack filler, we repair these imperfections to prevent water intrusion, freeze-thaw damage, and further deterioration—ensuring a smooth, even finish.

STEP 3

Precision Sealer Application

Once the surface is dry and prepped, we apply a premium-grade concrete sealer using rollers or spray systems, depending on the surface type. The sealer enhances the driveway’s color and appearance while creating a protective barrier against water, chemicals, and wear.

STEP 4

Drying & Final Inspection

After application, we allow the sealer to cure properly for maximum durability. We perform a final walk-through to ensure full, even coverage and a clean, professional finish. Your driveway will be protected, refreshed, and ready for the seasons ahead.

“Diamond Driveways sealed our concrete driveway last fall and it still looks amazing. The team was super professional, explained the whole process, and didn’t leave a mess behind. Our driveway looks cleaner and water beads right off it now. Highly recommend!”

“I’ve had sealing done before, but this was by far the best experience. They power washed, filled the cracks, and sealed it all in one go. The finish is smooth, clean, and actually makes the whole front of our house look newer. Great service from start to finish.”

FAQ

You Might have a few questions!

How often should I seal my driveway?

We recommend sealing your concrete driveway every 2 to 3 years, depending on exposure to weather, traffic, and chemicals like road salt. Regular sealing helps extend its life and maintain its appearance.

How long does the sealer take to dry?

Typically, the sealer dries to the touch within 4 to 6 hours, but we recommend waiting 24 to 48 hours before parking or driving on it to ensure full curing.

Will sealing make my driveway slippery?

No — we use sealers that are designed for safety. For smooth or decorative surfaces, we can also add a non-slip additive to provide extra traction if needed.

Does sealing fix cracks or damage?

Sealing protects and enhances the surface, but it’s not a substitute for repairs. We fill visible cracks during prep, but larger damage may require separate repair before sealing.
